6. Insurance
A. Liability
Tenant shall obtain, pay for, and keep in effect for the benefit of
Landlord and Tenant, public liability insurance on the Rental Space. The
insurance company and the broker must be acceptable to Landlord. This coverage
must be in at least the minimum amounts stated above and shall include Landlord
as a direct insured party.
Tenant shall deliver the original policy to the Landlord with proof of
payment of the initial premium. This shall be done not less than 15 days before
the Beginning of the Term. Tenant shall deliver a renewal policy to the Landlord
with proof of payment not less than 20 days before the expiration date of each
policy.
B. Property/Casualty/Rental
Tenant shall throughout the term of this lease, for the benefit of both
Landlord and Tenant as named insureds, maintain insurance against loss or damage
by fire, and such other risks and hazards as are insurable under present and
future standard forms of fire and extended coverage insurance policies on the
Building and all structures, appurtenances, sprinklers, boilers and on Tenant's
personal property, furniture, furnishings, and fixtures located in the demised
premises, for their respective full insurable value with Broad Extended
Occupancy Endorsement in amounts at all times sufficient to prevent Landlord or
Tenant from becoming a co-insurer under the terms of any such policies.
Tenant shall also obtain and keep in force rental insurance against loss
of rental under a rental value insurance policy covering risk of loss due to the
occurrence of any of the hazards insured against under Tenant's Fire and
Extended Insurance on the building, in an amount sufficient to prevent Landlord
from becoming a co-insurer but in any event, in an amount sufficient to pay, for
not less than one year, the rent payable under this Lease. All proceeds received
by Landlord under rent insurance policies will be credited as received against
the rent due.
Each such policy shall provide that not less than ten days before
expiration, evidence of its renewal, or a new certificate, together with
evidence of payment of premiums for the renewal period or insurance policy, as
the case may be, shall be delivered to Landlord. In the event of any fire or
other casualty insured against by Tenant's policy, Landlord may assign to Tenant
all of Landlord's right, title, and interest in and to the insurance proceeds.
Tenant shall accept such proceeds as full payment for any loss or damage to its
property, and shall not make any claim against Landlord for any other sum
therefor, even if the loss or damage is due to the carelessness or negligence of
Landlord or its servants, agents, or employees. If any insured casualty occurs,
Tenant shall have full authority, and shall take all necessary measures, to
file, negotiate, compromise, or adjust any loss under its policy, subject to
Landlord's approval which may not unreasonably be withheld.
3
C. On Tenant's default in obtaining or delivering any such policy or
policies or failure to pay the charges therefor, Landlord may secure or pay the
charges for any such policy or policies and charge Tenant as additional rent
therefor after giving Tenant Notice of Default and an opportunity to cure same
within ten (10) days from Notice of such default. However, no such Notice of
Default or cure period shall apply if such insurance coverage has lapsed or is
in jeopardy of lapsing.
D. All policies shall state that the insurance company shall not cancel or
refuse to renew without at least 30 days written notice to the Landlord.
E. If during the term of the Lease, higher limits of insurance than those
mentioned above are appropriate, customary, and generally required for like
premises utilized for similar uses, Tenant shall, upon Landlord's request,
procure such increased limits insurance.
Insurance required hereunder shall be in companies rated AAA or better in
"Best's Insurance Guide," which shall be qualified to do business in the State
of New York.
Neither party shall be liable to the other for any business interruption
or any loss or damage to property or injury or death of persons occurring in the
Building (including all the Rental Space), or in any manner growing out of or
connected with Tenant's use and occupation thereof, the Building or the
condition thereof, whether caused by the negligence or other fault of Landlord

tenant. Eviction is started by the filing of a complaint in court and the

Tenant for any one of the other grounds of good cause provided by law. After a
court order of eviction and compliance with the warrant of removal, Landlord may
re-enter and take back possession of the Rental Space. If the cause for eviction
is non-payment of Rent, notice does not have to be given to Tenant before

give Tenant the notice required by law before Landlord files a complaint for
eviction.
Tenant is liable for all damages caused by Tenant's violation of any
agreement in this Lease. This includes reasonable attorney's fees and costs.

until the Landlord re-rents the Rental Space, if sooner. If the Landlord

difference until the end of the Term. Tenant shall not be entitled to any excess
resulting from the re-renting. Tenant shall also pay (a) all reasonable expenses
incurred by the Landlord in preparing the Rental space for re-renting and (b)
commissions paid to a broker for finding a new tenant.
21. Bankruptcy
Anything elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding, this
lease may be canceled by Landlord by the sending of a written notice to Tenant
within a reasonable time after the happening of any one or more of the following
events: (i) Tenant shall (a) have applied for or consented to the appointment of
a receiver, trustee, liquidator, or other custodian of Tenant or any of its
properties or assets, (b) be unable to pay its debts generally as they become
due or shall have taken any other action which could result in it becoming the
subject of an insolvency or
9
bankruptcy proceeding, (c) have made a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, (d) have commenced a voluntary case for relief as a debtor under the

petition filed against it in any proceeding under any such law, or (e) be
adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or (ii) without the acquiescence or consent
of Tenant an order, judgment or decree shall have been entered by any court of
competent jurisdiction (a) approving as properly filed a petition seeking relief
under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency, readjustment of debts, dissolution or liquidation law or statute
with respect to Tenant or all or a substantial part of its properties or assets
or (b) appointing a receiver, trustee, liquidator or other custodian or all or a
substantial part of its properties or assets, and such order, judgment or decree

entitled to possession of the Demised Premises but shall forthwith quit and
surrender the Demised Premises. If this lease shall be assigned in accordance
with its terms the provisions of this Article shall be applicable only to the
party then owning Tenant's interest in this lease.
22. No Representations by Landlord
Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents have made any representations or
promises with respect to the physical condition of the building, the land upon
which it is erected or the demised premises, the rents, leases, expenses of
operation or any other mater or thing affecting or related to the premises
except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or licenses are
acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly set forth in
the provisions of this lease Tenant has inspected the building and the demised
premises and is thoroughly acquainted with their condition, applicable zoning,
permissible uses, and occupancy requirements, and agrees to take the same "as
is" and acknowledges that the taking of possession of the demised premises by
Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said premises and the building of
which the same form a part were in good and satisfactory condition at the time
such possession was so taken, except as to latent defects. All understandings
and agreements heretofore made between the parties hereto are merged in this
contract, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement between
Landlord and Tenant and any executory agreement hereafter made shall be
ineffective to change, modify, discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole
or in part, unless such executory agreement is in writing and signed by the
party against whom enforcement of the change, modification, discharge or
abandonment is sought.
23. Notices
All notices given under this Lease must be in writing. Each party must
accept and claim the notices given by the other. Unless otherwise provided by
law, they may be given by (a) personal delivery, or (b) certified mail, return
receipt requested. Notices shall be addressed to Landlord at the address written
at the beginning of this Lease and to the Tenant at the Rental Space.
10
24. No Waiver

prevent the Landlord from enforcing the agreement for any violations occurring

abandoned property.

This Lease binds Landlord and Tenant and all parties who lawfully succeed
to their rights or take their places.
28. Assignment and Subletting.
The Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease or sublet the
Premises or any part thereof, to its parent or any affiliate, subsidiary or
related entity or any entity into which or with which Tenant is merged or
consolidated without limitation and without the consent of Landlord. Landlord
shall have the right to approve any other subtenant or assignee, which approval,
however, shall not release the Tenant from any liability under this Lease and
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
29. Interruption of Services or use.
Interruption or curtailment of any service maintained in the building or
use of the premises, caused by Force majeure (as defined in Section 31 hereof),
shall not entitle the Tenant to any claim against the Landlord or to any
abatement in rent, and shall not constitute a constructive or partial eviction,
unless the Lessor fails to take measures as may be reasonable under the
circumstances to restore the service without undue delay.
30. Broker. Each party represents to the other that no real estate commission is
due to any broker or agent as a result of this transaction, and each agrees to

non-disturbance clause from the mortgage lender upon refinancing.

not be changed except with writing signed by Landlord and Tenant. Both parties
