3

month in which the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date occurs, the first day of any Rental Period or any fifth anniversary of the first day of any Rental Period (excluding the last Rental period).  If Tenant so exercises Tenant’s Option, then Landlord and Tenant shall complete Tenant’s acquisition of Landlord’s Interest as set forth in Section I.K.2 below on or prior to the first day of such Rental Period or fifth anniversary.  Either party may refuse to extend Tenant’s ability to exercise Tenant’s Option for any or no reason.

2.                                       Terms of Tenant’s Option.  Upon Tenant’s valid exercise of Tenant’s Option in Section I.K.1 above, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith for a period of no more than thirty (30) days to determine the market value of Landlord’s Interest to be acquired pursuant to Tenant’s Option.  The market value for Landlord’s Interest (whether determined by agreement between the Landlord and Tenant or, in the absence of such agreement, by appraisal under the terms of section V.B below) shall be based upon the assumption that Landlord’s Interest is free and clear of this Lease but is subject to similar restrictions on use as herein set forth, and giving due consideration to amenities furnished, and any other factors which would ordinarily be considered in establishing the prevailing market value, all as applicable to the use permitted in this Lease in other comparable commercial developments in ▇▇▇▇▇ County, Nevada, with such adjustments to reflect different locations and other matters as may be reasonably appropriate.  Such market value shall be agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant within said thirty (30) day period.  If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the market value of Landlord’s Interest within said thirty (30) day period, the market value of Landlord’s Interest shall be determined by appraisal pursuant to Section V.B below.  Upon determination of the market value of Landlord’s Interest, whether by agreement or by appraisal, Tenant shall provide evidence to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction that there are funds available and committed to Tenant to complete the acquisition.  Tenant shall acquire all or a portion of Landlord’s Interest either by purchase or by way of an exchange which would qualify for tax-deferred treatment to Landlord under section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, whichever method Landlord shall elect in its sole discretion; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to incur any additional costs or liabilities as a result of Landlord’s election to proceed with an exchange under Section 1031.  Landlord’s Interest shall be conveyed to Tenant free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except those shown in Exhibit A attached hereto, those liens and encumbrances existing upon the Leased Land at the time of Landlord’s acquisition of the Leased Land, if applicable, and those liens and encumbrances made or suffered by Tenant.  All costs and expenses of conveying Landlord’s Interest to Tenant, including without limitation, any and all escrow fees, conveyance taxes, notary fees, title insurance premiums, recording fees and other customary closing costs and expenses, shall be allocated between the parties in such proportion as is mutually agreed upon, or in the absence of such agreement according to the prevailing practice and custom within the jurisdiction in which the Premises is located.  All real property taxes, assessments, rent under this Lease and other similar payments shall be prorated between Landlord and Tenant upon the closing date for Tenant’s acquisition of Landlord’s Interest.  If Tenant exercises Tenant’s Option but thereafter fails to acquire Landlord’s interest for any reason other than Landlord’s default, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all of Landlord’s out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with Tenant’s Option, including without limitation appraisers’ and attorneys’ fees.

L.                                      Tenant’s Option to Terminate.  Tenant shall use its best efforts to obtain commitments for all funding necessary to complete construction of the Required Improvements

4

on or prior to the Construction Commencement Date, as required by Article VI.B.6.  If Tenant is unable to obtain such funding, Tenant may at its option terminate this Lease on or prior to the Construction Commencement Date by delivery of written notice to Landlord, and upon receipt of such notice by Landlord this Lease shall terminate and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Lease.  In the event that any construction lender providing financing for the construction of the Required Improvements requires the modification of any Lease provisions as a condition precedent to providing such financing, Landlord shall agree to such modifications, provided that they do not have a material adverse economic impact on Landlord.

All terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Standard Lease Provisions and the Exhibits attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Lease.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Lease as of the date first written above.

3.                                       Contracts for Architect.  Without limiting the terms and conditions to be contained in Tenant’s contract with the architect for the design of the Required Improvements or Other Construction, such contract shall require that the architect prepare the Approved Plans and Specifications for the construction and deliver certification to the Landlord upon completion of construction that the construction is in substantial compliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications.  Tenant shall provide Landlord with an executed copy of its architect contract at the same time that Tenant submits its initial plans and specifications to Landlord for review and approval under Section VI.B.1 above.

4.                                       Performance and Payment Bonds.  If such bonds are required by Tenant’s lender(s).  Tenant shall deposit with the Landlord certificates or other satisfactory evidence that the contractor has procured one or more bonds for a total amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the total construction cost of the Required Improvements or Other Construction, naming Landlord as an additional obligee, guaranteeing the full and faithful performance of the construction contract for such construction free and clear of all mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and the full payment of all subcontractors, labor and materialmen, including without restricting the generality of the foregoing, all architects and interior decorators.

5.                                       Governmental Approvals.  Tenant shall furnish Landlord with evidence satisfactory to Landlord (which may be in the form of an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Landlord) that all governmental approvals necessary to commence the construction of the Required Improvements or Other Construction have been obtained, including without limitation the issuance of a building permit.

6.                                       Funding.  Tenant shall provide Landlord evidence satisfactory to Landlord that there are funds available and committed to Tenant sufficient to pay for the completion of the Required Improvements or the Other Construction, including without limitation in the case of the Required improvements and, if required by Landlord, the Other Construction, one hundred percent (100%) of the total Hard Costs and indirect costs of such construction.

7.                                       Construction Liability Insurance.  In addition to the requirements of Article VIII below, beginning with the commencement of construction and continuing until all construction is Completed, Tenant shall maintain a comprehensive general liability insurance

policy satisfactory in form and content to the Landlord and insuring the Landlord and Tenant against at least all of the following:  loss or damage to third parties or their property from excavation, pile driving, loss of subterranean support, boiler explosion as well as all other hazards normally insured against in the construction industry.  Prior to the commencement of construction, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of such policies and endorsements, together with certificates of insurance certifying that such insurance is in full force and effect.

C.                                     Change Orders.  Throughout the course of any construction for which Tenant is required under this Lease to comply with the conditions set forth in Section VI.B above, any proposed variation in construction from the Approved Plane and Specifications which would do any of the following:

(i)                                     change the size or configuration of the Required Improvements or Other Construction,

(ii)                                  affect the visual design or external appearance of any construction on the Premises,

(iii)                               extend the time of any required performance under Tenant’s construction contract beyond the Construction Completion Date,

(iv)                              materially change the scope of the work under Tenant’s construction contract, or

(v)                                 result in construction which is not equal to or better than the construction covered by the original Approved Plans and Specifications therefor,

shall be made pursuant to supplemental plans and specifications and “change orders”, as that term is defined in the AIA General Conditions.  Tenant shall submit copies of any and all such supplemental plans and specifications and proposed change orders to Landlord for review and approval.  Tenant shall obtain such approvals, in writing prior to the carrying out of any construction pursuant to such supplemental plans and specifications or change orders and prior to execution of such change orders by Tenant or its agents.  If Tenant proposes to enter into an “additive change order” as that term is used in the AIA General Conditions, which additive change order would have the effect of depleting entirely the amount provided for contingencies in the construction budget, then prior to the execution of such additive change order, Tenant shall make funding arrangements satisfactory to Landlord to fund the additional sums required to cover the amount by which the construction budget, after all contingencies have been depleted, in increased by the additive change order.  Failure of Tenant to make such funding arrangements satisfactory to Landlord prior to the execution of any such additive change order shall constitute a default under this Lease.

9

such extension for Force Majeure and the time for payment of such sums shall not be so extended; and (ii) in no event shall the Term be extended as a result of the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure.

E.                                      Landlord’s Remedy of Completion for Interruption of Construction.

1.                                       Landlord’s Right to Assignments of Construction Contracts and Financing.  As a substantial and material condition to this Lease, Tenant hereby covenance that it will commence construction of the Required Improvements upon the Construction Commencement Date and thereafter in good faith diligently, expeditiously and continuously construct the Required Improvements so as to Complete the Required Improvements on or before the Construction Completion Date.  In the event that Tenant breaches its covenant set forth in the preceding sentence by (i) not commencing construction by the Construction Commencement Date, or (ii) allowing the diligent construction of the Required improvements to be interrupted for a continuous period of six (6) months or longer, after commencement of same, subject, in each case, to extensions for Force Majeure, then each such event shall constitute a material and substantial breach of this Lease and shall be deemed an act or event of default under this Lease giving Landlord the right to terminate this Lease after providing any Beneficiary the notice and opportunity to cure such default as provided for in Section VII.  B below.  Upon such termination by Landlord, the Premises and all improvements thereon, including the uncompleted Required Improvements, shall revert to Landlord as provided in Section XI.B below and Landlord may, but is not obligated to, complete or cause to be completed the construction of the Required Improvements for its own account.  If Landlord elects to complete construction of the Required Improvements, them;

(i)                                     Tenant shall assign to Landlord (a) all governmental approvals and permits obtained for the construction to the extent allowed by law, (b) the Tenant’s rights under the Tenant’s construction contract for the Required Improvements, and (c) the Tenant’s rights under Tenant’s contract with the architect for the Required Improvements, and Landlord agrees to assume all the obligations of Tenant under the foregoing instrument; and

(ii)                                  Tenant shall assign and quitclaim to Landlord all unadvanced and future sums committed under construction loans for the Required Improvements and the full amount of any unborrowed equity of Tenant in the Required improvements held by Tenant for construction and development of the Required Improvements.

Nothing in this Section VI.E shall be deemed or construed to limit any other rights that Landlord may have under this Lease upon Tenant’s default including, without limitation, the rights of Landlord under Articles XI and XII below.

2.                                       Grant of Power of Attorney to Landlord.  If Landlord elects to complete construction of the Required Improvements, then for this purpose.  Tenant agrees to and does hereby constitute and appoint Landlord as its lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to complete the construction of the Required Improvements and to empower Landlord as its attorney or attorneys to act as follows on behalf of either one or both of Landlord

10

or Tenant:  to use any of the proceeds of the loan which may remain unadvanced for the purpose of completing the construction of the Required improvements in the manner called for by the Approved Plans and Specifications; to make changes and corrections in such Approved Plans and Specifications as shall be necessary or desirable to complete the construction in substantially the manner contemplated therein; to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, watchmen, architects and inspectors as shall be required for completion of construction of the Required Improvements; to pay, settle or compromise all bills and claims which may be or become liens against the Premises, to prosecute and defend all actions and proceedings relating to the construction of the Required Improvements or the Premises on behalf of either or both of Landlord or Tenant; to take such action and require such performance as Landlord deems necessary under the architectural and construction contracts and the performance and payment bonds; and to do any and every ether act which Tenant night do in its own behalf.  This power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

F.                                      Risk of Obtaining Governmental Approvals for Construction.  It is specifically understood and agreed that the risk and expense of obtaining all governmental approvals needed for construction of the Required Improvements and the operation of the Premises as required by Section I.F. above shall be borne solely by Tenant.  Failure to obtain such approvals and Tenant’s resulting inability to construct the Required Improvements shall not terminate Tenant’s obligation to make the payments required in this Lease, including but not limited to the obligation for Rent, or extend the time for or reduce the amount of any rental or other payment due under the Lease; provided, however, that if Tenant is unable to obtain such approvals prior to the Construction Commencement Date, then Tenant shall have the right to cancel this Lease by delivery of written notice to Landlord on or prior to the Construction Commencement Date, and neither party shall have any further right or interest hereunder.

G.                                     Delivery of Plans and Specifications Upon Completion.  Upon completion of any construction on the Premises required to be made under the conditions set forth in Section VI.B above, Tenant shall provide Landlord, at Tenant’s sole expense, with a complete set of plans and specifications for the entirety of such construction certified by the architect referenced in Section VI.B.3 above (i) as showing the completed construction “as built”, and (ii) as being in substantial compliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications, as same may have been modified pursuant to the provisions of Section VI.C above.

ARTICLE VII
ENCUMBRANCES

A.                                   Right to Encumber.  Any provision herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall have the right without the consent of Landlord to encumber by way of a deed of trust all or any portion of Tenant’s right, title and interest in, to and under this Lease.  Any such deed of trust may contain, except where particular terms, conditions or maturity are required by this Lease, such terms, conditions and maturity as Tenant may determine.  Provided that all requirements of this Lease are at all times complied with, Tenant may enter into any and all such extensions, modifications or amendments of any such deed of trust as it may desire.  Tenant shall, upon execution of any such deed of trust, promptly deliver a true copy of the deed of trust to Landlord.  The aggregate amount secured by all such deeds of

11

trust shall not exceed eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of this Lease and all buildings and other improvements constructed on the Premises or to be constructed on the premises during the Term.  The execution and delivery of any such deed of trust shall not be deemed to constitute such an assignment or transfer of this Lease as would require the holder or holders thereof, as such, to assume the observation or performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions on the part of Tenant to be observed or performed hereunder.  The Beneficiary and its respective assigns may enforce such deed of trust and may acquire title to the leasehold estate of Tenant in any lawful way and, pending foreclosure of such deed of trust (or bona fide sale or assignment in lieu of foreclosure) may take possession of and sublease the Premises, or cause any person having the relationship of an independent contractor to the Beneficiary to take possession of and sublease the Premises.  Upon foreclosure thereof (or any bona fide sale or assignment in lieu of foreclosure) the Beneficiary may without further consent of Landlord sell and assign this Lease, by assignment in which the assignee shall expressly assume and agree to observe and perform all the covenants of Tenant hereunder for so long as it shall retain title to Tenant’s interest hereunder.  Any assignee who has acquired title to this Lease by way of foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof may only assign its rights under the Lease, other than by way of deed of trust, in compliance with Section XIII.F hereto.  The Beneficiary or its assigns shall be liable to perform only the obligations of Tenant hereunder which arose during the period such entity had title to Tenant’s interest hereunder.

▇.                                     ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Right to Cure Lesses’s Deed of Trust Defaults.  Every deed of trust encumbering Lessee’s interests under this Lease shall provide that:

1.                                       In case of Tenant’s default under such deed of trust, should the Beneficiary determine to institute foreclosure proceedings, the Beneficiary shall give notice of such intended foreclosure to Landlord, by registered mail sent to Landlord’s last known address, at least every sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of such foreclosure proceedings, and Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cure any default then capable of being cured by Landlord; and

2.                                       Provided that Landlord commences to cure all current defaults of Tenant then curable by Landlord and diligently prosecutes such cure within such sixty (60) day period, then the Beneficiary shall waive its right to foreclosure and any default under the deed of trust shall be deemed cured and Landlord shall in no way be liable for any deficiency judgment on the promissory note secured by the deed of trust or for the payment of any sums due under the deed of trust or any other indebtedness as may be owed by Tenant to the Beneficiary.

Landlord’s expenses in curing Tenant’s default under such deed of trust, together with interest at a rate equal to Landlord’s Cost of Money accruing on such expenses from the date such expenses are incurred by Landlord until fully repaid by Tenant, shall be deemed to be additional rent under this Lease to be paid by Tenant.

C.                                     Protection of Beneficiary.  In the event that Tenant shall encumber the leasehold estate by way of deed of trust is compliance with the terms of this Lease and, if Tenant or the Beneficiary shall have furnished to Landlord a true copy of such deed of trust as provided in Section VII.A above, the following provisions shall apply and inure to and for the benefit of

12

the Beneficiary therein named, and its successors and assigns, any provision herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding:

1.                                       This Lease shall not be amended, altered, modified or rescinded by Landlord and Tenant, prior to the expiration of the term of the deed of trust, without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary.  If such a deed of trust is in effect, this Lease may be terminated only in accordance with the provisions of this Section VII.C.

2.                                       Landlord shall, upon serving Tenant any notice of default under the provisions of or with respect to this Lease, at the same time serve a copy of such notice upon the Beneficiary, by registered mail, addressed to it at the address shown in the deed of trust, and no notice by Landlord to Tenant shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until a copy thereof has been so served upon the Beneficiary.

3.                                       The Beneficiary, in the event Tenant shall be in default hereunder, shall have the right (but shall not be obligated) within the same period as is given to Tenant therefor, to remedy such default or to cause the same to be remedied, and Landlord shall accept such performance by or at the instigation of such Beneficiary as if the same had been done by Tenant.  No default on the part of Tenant in the performance of work required to be performed, or acts to be done or conditions to be remedied, shall be deemed to exist, if in good faith, steps shall have been commenced promptly by Tenant or by the Beneficiary to rectify the same and shall be prosecuted to completion with diligence and continuity.  If after proper notice of default by Landlord neither the Beneficiary nor Tenant cures or commences to cure Tenant’s default under this Lease within the time limits set forth in Section XI.A below, Landlord may terminate this Lease pursuant to such Section.

a.                                       Tenant hereby constitutes and appoints each Beneficiary as Tenant’s agents and attorneys-in-fact with full power, in Tenant’s name, place and stead, and at Tenant’s cost and expense, to enter upon the Premises and make repairs thereon and therein, maintain the same, remove any violations of law, statutes, ordinances or rule or regulation of governing authorities and to otherwise perform any of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease.

b.                                      In the event of any default of Tenant hereunder (including those relating to bankruptcy or insolvency) other than a default in the payment of money or a default susceptible of being cured by the payment of money, Landlord shall not take any action to effect a termination of this Lease, whether by service of a notice of termination or otherwise, due to such default, without allowing the Beneficiary (or a receiver appointed at the Beneficiary’s request or an independent contractor to the Beneficiary) a reasonable time within which to either (l) obtain possession of the Premises and the interests of Tenant under this Lease and cure the default, where the default is susceptible of being cured after obtaining such possession by the Beneficiary, receiver or independent contractor, or (2) institute and complete foreclosure proceedings or otherwise sell or acquire Tenant’s interest in the Premises and in this Lease, and any such default shall be considered as having been waived by Landlord upon the completion of foreclosure or such sale or Acquisition of Tenant’s interest, provided that:

13

(i)                                     the Beneficiary shall not be required to continue possession or foreclosure proceedings if the default which would have given cause of or such notice shall have been cured; and

(ii)                                  during any period of forbearance the foregoing shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any remedies hereunder, relating to any other default of Tenants, and

(iii)                               such Landlord’s waiver of such default, and the waiver of the right to terminate this Lease as a result of such default and any transfer of Tenant’s interests under this Lease by way of foreclosure or assignment in lieu thereof shall at all times be explicitly conditioned upon the curing by either Beneficiary or the party acquiring Tenant’s Interest under this Lease by way of foreclosure or assignment in lieu thereof of all then existing defaults hereunder susceptible of cure including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the payment of rent and other sums payable hereunder by Tenant, such as attorneys’ fees and other expenses of Landlord incurred in connection with such default, such that upon foreclosure or assignment in lieu thereof all payments required from Tenant by the Lease shall have been brought current; and

(iv)                              on and after the date of such foreclosure, sale or other acquisition and for so long as it shall hold such title, the party holding title to Tenant’s interest under this Lease shall observe and perform, or cause to be observed and performed, all of the covenants and agreements on the part of Tenant hereunder to be observed and performed.

If the conditions in clause (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence are not met by the Beneficiary (or a receiver appointed at the Beneficiary’s request) within thirty (30) days of notice or demand by Landlord, Landlord may terminate this Lease pursuant to Article XI below.

4.                                       No such Beneficiary shall become personally liable under the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease, unless and until such time as the Beneficiary becomes, and than only for so long as it remains, the owner of the leasehold estate.

5.                                       In the event of the termination of this Lease or of any succeeding lease made pursuant to the provisions of this Section VII.C.5 prior to its stated expiration data, Landlord will enter into a new lease of the Premises with the Beneficiary or, if there by more than one deed of trust, than with the Beneficiary entitled under Subparagraph (iii) of this Section VII.C.5, for the remainder of the Term, effective as of the date of such termination, at the rent and additional rent and upon the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and limitations contained in this Lease, provided:

(i)                                     such Beneficiary makes written request upon Landlord for such new lease within forty (40) days from the date of such termination and such written request is accompanied by payment to Landlord of all amounts then due to Landlord;

(ii)                                  such Beneficiary pays to Landlord at the time of the execution and delivery of such new lease any and all sums which would at the time of the execution and

14

delivery thereof be due under this Lease but for such termination and pays any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and disbursements incurred by Landlord in connection with any such default and termination as well as in connection with the execution and delivery of such new lease, loss the net income collected by Landlord on the Premises subsequent to the date of termination of this Lease and prior to the execution and delivery of the new lease; and

(iii)                               if more than one such Beneficiary makes written request upon Landlord in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph (i) of this Section VII.C.5, the new lease shall be delivered to the Beneficiary requesting such new lease whose deed of trust is prior in lien, and the written request of any Beneficiary whose deed of trust is subordinate in lien shall be void and of no force or effect.

6.                                       Upon the execution and delivery of such new lease in accordance with the provisions of Section VIII.C.5 above, all leases and other agreements with subleases which theretofore may have been assigned and transferred to Landlord shall thereupon be assigned and transferred without recourse by Landlord to the Beneficiary, as the new lessee.

D.                                    Subordination of Landlord’s Interest.  Landlord will on request of Tenant therefor, by suitable instrument in the nature of an additional security deed of trust, subordinate Landlord’s Interest to any first leasehold deed or deeds of trust which comply with the provisions of Section VII.A above.  The additional security deed of trust subordinating Landlord’s Interest may be enforced by foreclosure only together with foreclosure of said leasehold deed of trust and shall provide that Landlord’s Interest may be sold only if the sale of the leasehold estate does not generate sufficient proceeds to satisfy the indebtedness due under said leasehold deed of trust.  So long as Landlord’s Interest shall be subordinated to any leasehold deed of trust, Tenant will pay such deed of trust and the promissory note or notes thereby secured at the times and in the manner therein set forth and will faithfully observe and perform all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions contained in such deed of trust and notes within the period of grace therein provided, and any default of Tenant under such deed of trust or promissory note shall constitute a default under this Lease.  Tenant will indemnify and hold Landlord harmless against all loss, cost and expense whatsoever arising out of or in connection with such additional security deed of trust or any litigation with respect thereto.

E.                                      Encumbrances on Landlord’s Interest.  Subject to Section VII.D above, nothing herein contained shall limit Landlord’s right to assign or otherwise encumber Landlord’s interest in this Lease.  In the event that Landlord at any time so encumbers its interest in this Lease, said encumbrance shall be subject to and shall not be a lien prior to this Lease or any modifications or extensions hereof or any new lease given by Landlord pursuant to the provisions contained in Section VII.C or any leasehold deed of trust placed thereon and any such encumbrance by Landlord shall not be deemed to give any such assignee any greater rights than Landlord hereunder or the right to cancel the Lease or any new lease so made to a leasehold Beneficiary unless there is a default on the part of Tenant, uncured by either Tenant or the leasehold Beneficiary, which, under the terms of this Lease or such new lease, would enable Landlord to cancel this Lease, and withhold from such leasehold Beneficiary a new lease pursuant to the provisions contained in Section VII.C.7.

ARTICLE VIII
INSURANCE

A.                                   Insurance of Buildings.

1.                                       Fire and Hazard Insurance.  Tenant shall at its own expense and at all times during the Term keep all buildings, other improvements and fixtures, by whomsoever installed or constructed, existing on the Premises on the Effective Date or at any time thereafter, insured against (a) all of the risks covered by a standard “Special Form” endorsement, with additional coverage for risk of loss by earthquake (to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates) and flood and (b) such other hazards or risks which a prudent businessman would insure against.  This coverage shall be in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of such buildings, improvements and fixtures without deduction for depreciation, shall be written on an “Agreed Amount” basis, shall not have a deductible in excess of the amount shown in Section I.J above, and shall have an endorsement showing coverage for the loss of rental income after an insured-against occurrence during the period of restoration of the Premises and shall be placed with an insurance company or companies approved by Landlord.  The limits of liability with respect to this endorsement for loss of rental income shall be for a period of restoration of not less than two (2) years after the insured against occurrence and this endorsement shall be written on an “Agreed Amount” basis.

2.                                       Payment of Insurance Proceeds.  Every policy of insurance described in Section VIII.A.l above shall be issued to cover and insure all the several interests in the buildings, improvements, fixtures and rent required to be insured in Section VIII.A.1 above, of Landlord, Tenant and any Beneficiary as their respective interests are defined in this paragraph below, and shall be made payable in case of loss or damage to a trust company authorized by law to exercise corporate trust powers in the State of Nevada or another impartial third party, as shall be designated by Landlord from time to time as trustee of all proceeds of such insurance, which trustee shall have its principal office in Las Vegas.  The trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to effect, maintain or renew such insurance, nor to attend to any claim for loss or damage thereunder or the collection of any proceeds thereof, nor to incur any expense therefor, and shall be responsible only for the proper custody and application as provided for in this Section VIII.A of all proceeds of such insurance that shall actually come into its possession, and Tenant shall pay all fees and expenses of such trustee for or in connection with its services.  The respective interests of Landlord, Tenant and any Beneficiary in any proceeds of the insurance required in Section VIII.A.1 above payable for insured loss or damage shall be fixed and determined as of the date of such loss or damage as follows:

a.                                       Landlord’s Interest. Landlord shall have no interest in such insurance proceeds for the initial fifty-five (55) years of the Term, Landlord’s interest shall be ten percent (10%) in the fifty-sixth year and shall increase ten percent (10%) per year for each year thereafter; provided, however, that Landlord’s interest in any rental loss insurance payments shall be one hundred percent (100%).

16

b.                                      Tenant’s Interest. The interest of Tenant shall be the balance of such insurance proceeds after first deducting the amount of the interest of Landlord determined as set forth in Section VIII.A.2.a above.

c.                                       Beneficiary’s Interest. The interest of any Beneficiary in such proceeds shall be limited to the amount of, and encumber only, the interest of Tenant in such insurance proceeds as defined in Section VIII.A.2.b above, to the extent of the then outstanding principal and accrued interest secured under the deeds of trust of such Beneficiary; provided, however, that if the interest of Tenant in such insurance proceeds is insufficient to repay the then outstanding principal and accrued interest secured under the deeds of trust of such Beneficiary, the interest of such Beneficiary shall include Landlord’s interest as defined in Section VIII.A.2.a above to the extent necessary to repay such outstanding principal and accrued interest.  Any portion of Landlord’s interest remaining after the outstanding principal and accrued interest secured by such deeds of trust is repaid shall remain the sole property of Landlord.  The respective interests and rights of two or more Beneficiaries in and to such interests of Tenant shall be determined between them in accordance with the priority of their respective deeds of trust of this Lease.

3.                                       Use of Insurance Proceeds.  In case the buildings, improvements or fixtures required to be insured in Section VIII.A.1 above or any part thereof shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or such other casualty required to be insured against, then and as often as the same shall happen, all proceeds of such insurance, including the interest therein of Landlord and the balance of the interest therein of Tenant after deducting such amount of the interest of any Beneficiary in Tenant’s insurance proceeds as provided in section VIII.A.2.c above and excluding the proceeds of any rental value, or use and occupancy insurance of Tenant, shall be available for and used with all reasonable dispatch by Tenant in rebuilding, repairing, replacing or otherwise reinstating the buildings, improvements or fixtures so destroyed or damaged in a good and substantial manner according to the plan and elevation thereof, or according to such modified plan for the same or substitute buildings, improvements or fixtures as shall be approved in writing by the Landlord in accordance with Article VI above.  If the available insurance proceeds shall be insufficient for rebuilding, repairing, replacing or otherwise reinstating such buildings, improvements or fixtures in the manner provided in this paragraph above, then Tenant shall provide the balance of all funds required to completely rebuild, repair, replace or otherwise reinstate such buildings, improvements or fixtures.

4.                                       Uninsured Casualty and Abatament of Rent.  If a substantial portion of the Required Improvements or other improvements at any time erected on the Premises shall be rendered untenantable by casualty which Tenant is not required by Article VIII of this Lease to be insured against, neither party shall have any obligation to rebuild, repair or otherwise reinstate such buildings.  If Tenant shall undertake promptly to reinstate the building or buildings, or portions thereof, so destroyed or damaged according to the original plan and elevation thereof or according to such modified plan as shall be approved in writing by Landlord, then from the date of such casualty and during the diligent rebuilding or repair thereof until such buildings shall be fully reinstated, the rent payable under this Lease during such period of rebuilding shall be adjusted in such just and proportionate amount according to the nature and extent of the damage as Landlord and Tenant shall mutually agree upon in writing.  In the event the parties cannot

17

mutually arrive at such an agreement, then the matter shall be submitted to and settled by the appraisal process set forth in Section V.B above.  If Tenant does not so rebuild, repair or otherwise reinstate such buildings, Tenant will at its own expense promptly remove from the Premises all buildings, improvements and trade fixtures and restore the Land then remaining to good, orderly and sanitary condition and even grade, and upon so doing Tenant may then surrender this Lease and thereby be relieved of further performance under this Lease; provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to complete the Required Improvements on the Premises as provided in Section VI.A above nor permit Tenant’s surrender of this Lease prior to such Completion.

B.                                     Liability Insurance.  Tenant shall maintain at its own expense during the Term a policy or policies of “commercial general liability” insurance naming Master Lessor and Landlord as additional insureds thereunder in form and with coverage satisfactory to and approved by Landlord, with limits not less than those set forth in Section I.J above, and with deductibles not more than those set forth in Section I.J. The commercial general liability insurance shall specifically cover contractual liability, liquor liability, personal and advertising liability and products/completed operations liability.  Tenant shall periodically, but not less frequently than annually, reevaluate the scope of the risks covered and the liability limits of such insurance policies and, if necessary, increase such coverage or liability limits in order to provide coverage of risks and liability limits which a prudent businessman would provide under similar circumstances.  Tenant shall also increase the liability limits or the scope of the risks covered by such insurance policies to such higher levels or such broader scope of risks as Landlord may from time to time reasonably specify.  The coverage required hereunder shall state the Tenant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom a claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

C.                                     Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance.  Tenant shall maintain at its own expense during the Term a policy or policies of “worker’s compensation” insurance with minimum limits as required by Nevada state law, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and a policy or policies of “employer’s liability” insurance with a per accident limit not less than that set forth in Section I.J above.  The “employer’s liability” insurance policy shall name Landlord as an additional insured thereunder.  Both policies shall be in forms and with coverages satisfactory to and approved by Landlord.  Tenant shall increase the liability limits or the scope of the risks covered by such insurance policies to such higher levels or such broader scope of risks as Landlord may from time to time reasonably specify.

D.                                    Automobile Liability Insurance.  Tenant shall maintain at its own expense during the Term a policy or policies of “automobile liability” insurance naming Landlord as an additional insured thereunder, in form and with coverage satisfactory to and approved by Landlord, with a combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage not less than that set forth in Section I.J above and with a deductible not more than that set forth in Section I.J.

ARTICLE IX
CONDEMNATION

A.                                   Partial Termination and Reduction of Rent.  In the event at any time or times during the Term all or any part of the Premises shall be taken or condemned by any authority having the power of eminent domain, and neither of the events described in Section IX.D below occur, then and in every such case the estate and interest of Tenant in any part of the Premises so taken or condemned shall at once cease and terminate, and the Rent provided for in this Lease shall be reduced for and during the unexpired balance of the Term, effective as of the date when Tenant shall by reason of such taking or condemnation loss the right to possession of such part of that Premises, to a sum to be set by agreement of Landlord and Tenant.  If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon such Rent on or before the date ninety (90) days prior to the effective date of Tenant’s loss of possession as set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph, then Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent then in effect, and the new Rent shall be set by the appraisal process set forth in Section V.B above according to the formula provided for in the immediately following two sentences.  The appraisal shall determine the economic value of the Premises immediately prior to the taking and the economic value of the Premises immediately after the taxing, based on the respective then allowable highest and best are of the Premises.  The new Rent for the period of the Term commencing on the effective date of Tenant’s loss of possession as set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be the Rent, which would have been in effect for such period under the Lease if no condemnation had occurred, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the economic value of the Premises after the taking and the denominator of which is the economic value of the Premises before the taking, and the Rent for the remainder of the Term shall be adjusted accordingly.  Following the determination of the new Rent, any Rent paid by Tenant of Landlord in addition to the amount Tenant should have paid shall be retained by Landlord and applied to the monthly installment of Rent next coming due.

B.                                     Compensation and Damages.

1.                                       Land and Improvements on Land at Commencement of Term.  In every case of taking or condemnation of all or any part of the Premises, all compensation and damage a payable for or on account of the taking of all or any part of the Land or any buildings and other

20

improvements existing on the Land at the commencement of the Term shall be payable to and be the sole property of Landlord, and neither Tenant nor any Beneficiary shall have any interest or claim to such compensation or damages or any part thereof whatsoever.

2.                                       Improvements Erected During Term.  All compensation and damages payable for or on account of the taking of all or any part of any buildings and other improvements erected on the Land during the Term and any plans and other preparations therefor shall be payable to Landlord, Tenant and any Beneficiary in accordance with their respective interests as set forth in the following sentences.  The respective interests of Landlord, Tenant and any Beneficiary in such compensation and damages payable for or on account of any such buildings or other improvements shall be determined as of the date when Tenant by reason of such taking or condemnation loses the right to possession of such part of the Premises so taken or condemned.  The respective interests in such compensation and damages shall be as follows:

a.                                       Landlord’s Interest. Landlord shall have no interest in such compensation and damages for the first fifty-five (55) years of the Term; Landlord’s interest shall be ten percent (10%) in the fifty-sixth year and shall increase ten percent (10%) per year for each year thereafter;

b.                                      Tenant’s Interest. Tenant’s interest shall be the balance of such compensation and damages after first deducting the amount of Landlord’s interest as defined in subparagraph a above; and

c.                                       Beneficiary’s Interest. The Beneficiary’s interest shall be limited to Tenant’s interest under subparagraph b immediately above, to the extent of the then outstanding principal and accrued interest secured under the deeds of trust of such Beneficiary; provided, however, that if such Tenant’s interest is not sufficient to repay the then outstanding principal and accrued interest secured under the deeds of trust of such Beneficiary, then such Beneficiary’s interest shall include Landlord’s interest under subparagraph a above to the extent necessary to repay such outstanding principal and accrued interest.  Any portion of Landlord’s interest remaining after the outstanding principal and accrued interest secured by such deeds of trust is repaid shall remain the sole property of Landlord.  In no event shall such Beneficiary be deemed to have any interest in any compensation or damages payable for or on account of the taking of all or part of the Land or any buildings or other improvements existing on the Land at the commencement of the Term, which amounts shall be the sole property of Landlord.  The interest, and rights of two or more Beneficiaries in and to the interest of Tenant shall be determined in turn according to the respective priorities of their deeds of trust.

C.                                     Partial Taking of Improvements.  In the event only part of any building or other improvement now or hereafter built on the Premises shall be so taken or condemned, then and in every such case, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article IX, all compensation and damages payable for or on account of such portion of such building or improvements so taken or condemned, including both the interest of Landlord therein and the balance of Tenant’s interest in such compensation and damages after deducting the amount of the interest of any Beneficiary in such compensation and damages as set forth in Subparagraph B.2 above, shall be paid to trust company authorized by law to exercise corporate trust powers in the

21

State of Nevada or another impartial third party, which corporate trustee or third party shall have its principal office in Las Vegas and shall be designated by Landlord from time to time as trustee of all such compensation and damages, and all such amounts held by such trustee shall be available for and used with all reasonable dispatch by Tenant in rebuilding, repairing or otherwise reinstating or replacing such portion of such building or improvement taken or condemned on the balance of the Land not taken or condemned, in a good and substantial manner according to such plan as shall be approved in writing by Landlord.  If an economically viable building used for the uses permitted under this Lease can then be built and operated on the balance of the Land then remaining by combination of new construction and rebuilding of the taken or condemned portions of the improvements, and if the funds held by such trustee are insufficient to carry out such new construction and rebuilding, Tenant shall provide the balance of the funds required for such new construction or rebuilding in order to complete such a building on the Premises pursuant to the requirements for construction on the Premises set forth in Article VI above.  The trustee of the condemnation compensation and damages shall have no obligation whatsoever to attend to any claim for such compensation or damages or the collection thereof, nor to incur any expense therefor, and shall be responsible only for the proper custody and application as herein provided of all such compensation and damages that shall actually come into its possession.  Tenant shall pay all fees and expenses of such trustee for or in connection with such trustee’s services.  The provisions of this paragraph relate only to the handling of condemnation proceeds attributable to the partial taking of any building or improvements and do not in any way alter the provisions of paragraph B.1 of this Article IX with respect to condemnation proceeds paid for the taking of all or any portion of the Land.

D.                                    Termination of Lease.  In the event only part of the Premises shall be so taken or condemned, and either:

a.                                       Landlord and Tenant shall agree in writing that the balance of the Premises is unsuitable for construction and operation of an economically viable building used for purposes permitted under this Lease, or

b.                                      all of the Required Improvements on the Premises shall be taken or condemned,

Tenant shall remove all buildings and other improvements then remaining on the Premises and restore the Land then remaining to good and orderly condition and even grade, and upon such removal and restoration and in every such case, Tenant shall have the right at its option, by giving prior written notice thereof to Landlord within seventy-five (75) days after completing such removal and restoration, to terminate this Lease.  Upon such termination, Tenant shall be relieved of all further obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any unearned portion of the Rent paid in advance prior to the effective date of such termination and Landlord shall receive both Landlord’s and Tenant’s interest in such condemnation compensation and damages then held by such trustee.

E.                                      Condemnation of Leasehold Interest.  In the event at any time or times during the Term a leasehold interest in the Premises or any part of such interest shall be taken or condemned, then and in every such case, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this

22

Article IX, such taking or condemnation shall not result in any reduction in Rent under this Lease, nor give Tenant any right to terminate this Lease with respect to any part of the Premises, nor excuse Tenant from the full and faithful performance of any or all of its covenants and obligations under this Lease for the payment of money, nor excuse or relieve Tenant from the performance of its covenants and obligations under this Lease except to the extent that, and for so long as, the performance of such covenants and obligations shall be rendered impossible by reason of the loss by Tenant of possession of such part of the Premises subject to such taking or condemnation.  In every such case of taking or condemnation of all or a part of Tenant’s interest, Tenant shall be entitled to claim and recover from the condemning authority its damages sustained by reason of such taking, and all compensation and damages payable for or on account of such taking or condemnation of any part of such leasehold interest shall be payable to and be the sole property of Tenant.

F.                                      Loss of Business Damages.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article IX, if and only if such claim for damages is not adverse to any interest of Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to claim and recover from the condemning authority but not from Landlord, such compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant in its own right on account of any and all damage to its business by reason of any condemnation and for or on account of any cost or loss of Tenant in removing its furnishings and equipment.

G.                                     Conveyance as Condemnation.  The term “condemnation” as used in this Lease shall include any conveyance made under threat or imminence of condemnation by any public or private authority having the power of eminent domain.

ARTICLE X

23

assessment required in this paragraph to be paid by Tenant, which conditions are as follows:  (a) such actions must be commenced before any such tax or assessment becomes delinquent, (b) the action commenced by Tenant must be an action which either stays the collectibility of such tax or prevents the sale of the Premises in satisfaction of such tax or assessment or lien securing such tax or assessment, or in the alternative to the previous two types of actions, an action in which Tenant pays such tax or assessment while such action ensues, (c) Tenant complies with all requirements of such action, including but not limited to the posting of bond or payment of such tax or assessment while such action ensues, (d) Tenant gives notice; to Landlord of Tenant’s intention to context such tax or assessment not less than ten (10) days before such taxes or assessments become delinquent, and (e) prior to undertaking such action, Tenant gives security to Landlord, satisfactory to Landlord in both quality and quantity, for payment of such taxes; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall pay all such taxes, rates, assessments or charges, together with all interest, penalties or fines accrued thereon or imposed in connection therewith, immediately upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien which attached to the Premises or any part thereof as security for such taxes, rates, assessments or charges.  If Tenant shall fail to pay any taxes or assessments as provided in this paragraph, Landlord may at any time thereafter pay the same, together with any interest, penalties, fines and costs accrued thereon or imposed in connection therewith, and Tenant shall repay to Landlord upon demand therefor the full amount so paid by Landlord, together with interest at landlord’s Cost of Money accruing from the date such payment here due until Landlord is reimbursed for such payments by Tenant shall pay all conveyance taxes imposed with respect to this Lease.

D.                                    Repair and Maintenance.  Tenant will at its own expense keep the Premises, all landscaping, all structural and non-structural portions of all buildings and other improvements existing on the Premises at any time during the Term, in good order, condition, maintenance and repair, reasonable wear and tear from normal usage excepted.  Repairs which will exceed a cost equal to the Alteration Threshold multiplied by the Cost of Living Factor, and

24

only such repairs, shall be subject to the requirements of Article VI above.  All repairs or maintenance which alter the external visual appearance of the Premises (including any change in paint color) shall be subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Repairs or maintenance which return the Premises to their original condition and aesthetic appearance (including color) as shown in plans and specifications previously approved by Landlord shall not require Landlord’s prior consent as set forth in the preceding sentence, but shall meet the requirements of Article VI if they exceed the Alteration Threshold multiplied by the Cost of Living factor.

E.                                      Observance of Laws.  Tenant shall during the Term (i) keep the Premises in a strictly clean and sanitary condition; (ii) observe and perform all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations whether now or hereafter made by any governmental authority for the time being applicable to the Premises or the use thereof; and (iii) indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless against all actions, suits, claims and damages (including reasonable attorney’s fees) by whomsoever brought or made by reason of the nonobservance or nonperformance of such requirements, laws, ordinances, rules and regulations or this covenant.  If at any time hereafter, Landlord or any governmental authority having jurisdiction shall require Landlord or Tenant to pre-sort, recycle, segregate or otherwise prepare trash and garbage for disposition from the Premises, Tenant at no cost to Landlord will cooperate fully in such efforts and shall provide on the Premises any and all receptacles, containers and holding areas reasonably necessary to accommodate the trash and garbage generated at the Premises by Tenant and others.

F.                                      Inspection of Premises.  Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents at all reasonable times during the Term to enter and examine the state of repair and condition of the Premises.  If any defects come to Landlord’s attention, Landlord may give notice of such defects to Tenant and within sixty (60) days after such notice, Tenant shall repair and make good all defects required by the terms of this Lease to be repaired by Tenant; provided, however, that if such repair or correction may be made within a reasonable period of time but cannot reasonably be made within sixty (60) days, then such repair or correction shall be deemed to be made if begun within the sixty (60) day period and thereafter continuously and diligently undertaken to completion by Tenant; provided, further, however, that if such defect poses a threat to health and replace it to the original level with an uncontaminated material of the same character as existed prior to the contamination.

1.                                       Right of Re-entry.  Landlord may, with or without termination, at once re-enter the Premises or any part thereof in the name of the whole and, upon or without such entry, at its option, expel and remove from the Premises Tenant and any persons claiming under Tenant and its and their property without service of notice or resort to legal process or being deemed guilty of any trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage occasioned thereby, and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of action, including summary possession, which Landlord may have for rent or any other indebtedness owning by Tenant hereunder, whether theretofore or thereafter accruing or to accrue, or damages for any preceding or other breach of contract.

3.                                       Removal of Persons or Property.  In the event of such resumption of possession under this Lease, whether by summary proceedings or by any other means, Landlord, or any receiver appointed by a court having jurisdiction, may dispossess and remove all persons and property from the Premises, and any property so removed may be stored in any public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, and Landlord shall not be responsible for the care or safekeeping thereof, and Tenant hereby waives any and all loss, destruction, and/or damages or injury which may be occasioned in the exercise of any of the aforesaid acts.

5.                                       Right to Re-let.  Should Landlord elect to re-enter for Tenant’s Default, as provided hereinabove, or should it take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, Landlord may either terminate this Lease or from time to time without terminating this Lease, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in order to re-let the Premises, and re-let said Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term of this Lease) and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable; upon each such re-letting all rental received by Landlord from such re-letting shall be applied, first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such re-letting and of any necessary alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent and other payments as the same may become due and payable hereunder.  If such rentals received from such re-letting during any month are less than that to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord.  Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly.  Termination may, but need not necessarily, be made effective by the giving of written notice to Tenant of intention to end the Term of this Lease, specifying a day not earlier than five (5) days thereafter; and upon the giving of such notice, the Term of this Lease and all right, title and interest of Tenant hereunder shall expire as fully and completely on the day so specified as if that day were the date herein specifically fixed for the expiration of the Term.  No re-entry or taking of possession of said Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding any such re-letting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous Default.  Should Landlord at any time terminate this Lease for Tenant’s Default, in addition to any other remedies it may have, Landlord may recover from Tenant all damages it may incur by reason of such Default, including the cost of recovering the Premises, reasonable attorney’s fees, and the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount of Rent and other charges reserved in this Lease for the remainder of the stated Term over the then reasonable rental value of the Premises for the

27

remainder of the stated Term, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable from Tenant to Landlord.

C.                                     Non-Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  The waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained.  The subsequent acceptance of rent or any other payment hereunder by Landlord or the subsequent acceptance of payment by Tenant shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of the party to pay the particular rental or other payment so accepted, regardless of such party’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent or other payment.  Each and all the remedies given to Landlord and Tenant hereunder are cumulative, and the exercise of one right or remedy by Landlord or Tenant shall not impair Landlord’s or Tenant’s right to any other remedy.

D.                                    No Accord and Satisfaction.  No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly Rent or other payments herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated Rent or other payment, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent or other payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or other payment or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
