In no event shall the Tenant's proportional share of the annual adjusted Building Operating Cost be less than the Tenant's proportional share in the preceding year.

2.10.2 For purposes of this Lease, the term “CAM” or "Building Operating Cost" shall be defined as and mean the total cost and expense of operating, maintaining, managing and repairing (as necessary) Lot 7-A and all improvements thereon (the Building) and appurtenances thereto and Landlord's contributions towards the operations and maintenance of the Shopping Center Common Areas.

Tenant shall pay such monthly contributions toward CAM monthly in advance, together with the payment of Fixed Minimum Annual Rent. After the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of the actual CAM, and there shall be an adjustment between Landlord and Tenant with payment or repayment by Landlord, as the case may require, to the end that Landlord shall receive the entire amount of Tenant's proportionate share of CAM.

Lease Agreement Page 9 of 62 LL: BV |T: month period, then at Landlord's option, Landlord may demand thereafter that all rental and additional rentals be paid quarterly in advance.

Any insurance policy procured by either Tenant or Landlord which does not name the other as a named insured shall, if obtainable, contain an express waiver of any right of subrogation by the insurance company, including but not limited to Tenant's workmen's compensation carrier, against Landlord or Tenant, whichever the case may be.

Tenant may not assign this Lease in whole or in part, nor sublet all or any portion of the Demised Premises, without the prior written reasonable consent of Landlord and the prior written consent of Landlord's mortgagee in each instance. The reasonable consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. It is understood that Landlord may refuse to grant such reasonable consent to

Lease Agreement Page 20 of 62 LL: BV |T: any assignment or subletting by Tenant if the Landlord is not satisfied with the financial responsibility, identity or business character, the nature of the occupancy or legality of the proposed use, of the subtenant, or if there is a need for alteration of the Demised Premises by the subtenant. If this Lease be assigned, or if the Demised Premises or any part thereof be underlet or occupied by any party other than Tenant, Landlord may collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of the covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. This prohibition against assignment or subletting shall be construed to include prohibition against any assignment or subleasing by operation of law, legal process, receivership, bankruptcy or otherwise, whether voluntary or involuntary and a prohibition against any encumbrance of all and any part of Tenant's leasehold interest. Notwithstanding any assignment of sublease, Tenant shall remain fully liable on this Lease and shall not be released from performing any of the terms, covenants and conditions hereof, and said sublessee if consented to by Landlord, shall stringently comply with all Lease terms and conditions. 10.1.1 If Landlord shall not be permitted to terminate this Lease as herein above provided because of the provisions of Title 11 of the United States Code relating to Bankruptcy, as amended ("Bankruptcy Code"), then Tenant as a debtor-in-possession or any trustee for Tenant agrees promptly, within no more than thirty (30) days upon request by Landlord to the Bankruptcy Court, to assume or reject this Lease and Tenant on behalf of itself, and any trustee agrees not to seek or request any extension or adjournment of any application to assume or reject this Lease by Landlord with such Court. In such event, Tenant or any trustee for Tenant may only assume this Lease if (A) it cures or provides adequate assurances that the trustees will promptly cure any default hereunder, (B) compensates or provides adequate assurance that Tenant will promptly compensate Landlord for any actual pecuniary loss to Landlord resulting from Tenant's default, and (C) provides adequate assurance of performance during the fully stated term hereof of all of the terms, covenants, and provisions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. In no event after the assumption of this Lease shall any then-existing default remain uncured for a period in excess of the earlier of ten (10) days or the time period set forth herein. Adequate assurance of performance of this Lease, as set forth herein above, shall include, without limitation, adequate assurance (1) of the source of rent reserved hereunder, and (2) the assumption of this Lease will not breach any provision hereunder. 10.1.2 Excess Income. Any income from the Lease Premises accruing from any assignment or sub-let made by Tenant and approved by Landlord shall be for the benefit of the Landlord whether the income equals the rent set forth and due hereunder or in excess thereof. 10.1.3 Fees. Any proposed assignment or sub-let shall be accompanied by a credit application completed by the proposed assignee or sublessee, as provided by the Landlord and a non-refundable application fee of $250.00. Should the assignee or sublessee be approved by the Landlord, a $500.00 administrative transfer fee shall be require and the payment of the Landlord's attorney's reasonable fees not to exceed $1,000.00 for the review and or drafting of any required documents needed or desirable to effectuate any assignment or transfer. Said administrative transfer fee shall be payable upon the Landlord's initial approval of proposed assignee's or notice of receipt of sublessee's credit report.

10.2 Significant Change of Ownership If the Tenant is a corporation (other than one whose shares are regularly and publicly traded on a recognized stock exchange), then Tenant represents that the ownership and power to vote its entire outstanding capital stock belongs to and is vested in the officer or officers executing this Lease or members of his or their immediate family. If there shall occur any change in the ownership of and/or power to vote (or control the vote of) the majority (herein defined as controlling interest) of the out-standing capital stock of Tenant, whether such change of ownership is by sale, assignment, bequest, inheritance, operation of law or other-wise, without the prior written consent of Landlord, then Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days notice to Tenant. For the purposes of this section, the word corporation shall mean any entity including but not limited to any individual, sole proprietorship, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, limited

Lease Agreement Page 21 of 62 LL: BV |T: liability partnership, trust, estate, unincorporated organization, association, corporation, institution or other entity.

10.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease or sublet the Premises, without charge and without Landlord’s consent being required, to QFA Royalties LLC (“QFA”) or its parent, subsidiaries or affiliates (QFA, its parent, subsidiaries and affiliates are each referred to herein as a “QFA Entity” or “Franchisor”). Tenant shall also have the right to assign the Lease or sublet the Premises, without charge and with Landlord’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to a duly authorized franchisee of Franchisor. In the event of an assignment to a QFA Entity, the QFA Entity shall have the right to reassign this Lease, without charge and with Landlord’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to a duly authorized franchisee of Franchisor and to thereupon the QFA Entity shall be released from any further liability under this Lease. Any options to extend the term of this Lease shall automatically transfer to an assignee in connection with a transfer made pursuant to the foregoing paragraph. Tenant shall agree to attorn to any assignee of Landlord provided such assignee will agree not to disturb Tenant’s possession of the Premises.

Notice of such Rules and Regulations and amendments and supplements thereto, if any, shall be given to the Tenant and Tenant agrees to comply with all additional and supplemental Rules and Regulations upon notice of same from Landlord.

ARTICLE XIII: REPRESENTATIONS

13 Representations of Tenant and Landlord. 13.1 Representations of Tenant. 13.1.1 As part of the consideration for Landlord to lease to Tenant, Tenant has made a Credit Application (the "Application") to Landlord, which application together with the financial statements provided are made a part of this lease as if fully set forth herein. Tenant recognizes Landlord's material reliance upon the complete accuracy of each of the representations made therein, and Tenant

Lease Agreement Page 22 of 62 LL: BV |T: acknowledges that each and every obligation of the Landlord hereunder is conditioned upon the accuracy of said Application. 13.1.2 Net Lease. The Tenant acknowledges that this is a net lease in which Landlord has no responsibilities except as expressly set out in this Lease. Landlord is not responsible during the lease term for any costs, charges, expenses, and outlays of any nature arising from or relating to the Demised Premises and Tenant shall pay all charges, expenses, costs, and outlays of every nature and kind relating to the Demised Premises and Lease except as may be otherwise expressly set out in this Lease. This obligation of Tenant shall include the costs of compliance with all Federal, State and local laws, orders rules, or regulations affecting the Demised Premises or Tenant's use thereof. 13.1.3 Tenant Waivers. Tenant waives its rights to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought against the Landlord on any matter arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, the Tenant's use or occupancy of the Demised Premises, and any claim for the Tenant's use or occupancy of the Demised Premises, and any claim for injury or damage. Tenant acknowledges that the Tenant's foregoing waiver is a material consideration without which the Landlord would not enter into this Lease. In the event Landlord commences any proceeding for the non-payment of base or additional rent, Tenant shall not file any noncompulsory counterclaims in said proceedings. This shall not, however, be construed as a waiver of Tenant's right to assert such counterclaims in a separate action brought by Tenant. Tenant expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws should Tenant be evicted or disposed from the Demised Premises for any cause, or Landlord re-enters the Demised Premises following the occurrence of any default, or this lease is terminated before the lease term expiration date stated in the Lease. Tenant expressly waives any right to assert a defense based on merger and agrees that neither the commencement or settlement of any action or proceeding, nor the entry of judgment shall bar Landlord from bringing any subsequent actions or proceedings from time to time.

13.2 Representations of Landlord. Landlord or Landlord's agents have made no representations or promises with respect to the Center, Lot 7-A, the Building or the Demised Premises, or the zoning, land use, or permissive uses of any of the foregoing, except as herein expressly set forth, if at all, 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 shall be solely responsible to determine prior to the execution of this Lease that the zoning, land use, and any other governmental ordinances, laws, regulations, or otherwise, permit the use which Tenant intends to make of the Demised Premises. Landlord makes no representation or warranty of any kind or nature that Tenant will be entitled to receive an occupational license for the conduct of its intended business at the Demised Premises, and the responsibility to determine such matters shall rest with Tenant prior to the execution of this Lease. The taking possession of the Demised Premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence, as against Tenant, that Tenant accepts the Demised Premises and the Building and that same were in good, satisfactory condition at the time such possession was so taken.

ARTICLE XIV: DESTRUCTION OF DEMISED PREMISES AND OR RENOVATION

14 Destruction of Demised Premises and or Renovation

14.1 Total or Partial Destruction. If the Demised Premises shall be damaged by fire, the elements, unavoidable accident or other casualty, without fault of Tenant, but are not thereby rendered untenantable in whole or in part, Landlord shall at its own expense cause such damage, except to Tenant's equipment and trade fixtures, to be repaired, and the rent and other charges shall not be abated. If by reason of such occurrence, the Demised Premises shall be rendered untenantable only in part, Landlord shall at its own expense cause the damage except to Tenant's equipment and trade fixtures, to be repaired, but only to the extent of Landlord's original obligation to construct pursuant hereto, and the Fixed Minimum Rent meanwhile shall be abated proportionately as to the portion of the Demised Premises rendered untenantable. If the Demised Premises shall be rendered wholly untenantable by reason of such occurrence, the Landlord shall at its own expense cause such damage, except to Tenant's equipment and

Lease Agreement Page 23 of 62 LL: BV |T: trade fixtures, to be repaired, but only to the extent of the Landlord's original obligation to construct pursuant hereto and the fixed Minimum Rent meanwhile shall be abated in whole except that Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised by notice in writing delivered to Tenant within sixty (60) days after said occurrence, to elect not to reconstruct the destroyed Demised Premises, and in such event this Lease and the tenancy hereby created shall cease as of the date of the said occurrence. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to permit the abatement in whole or in part of the Percentage Rent, or percentage payment of Landlord's Total Construction Cost, nor charges for common area maintenance and real estate taxes attributable to any period during which the Demised Premises shall be in untenantable condition, nor shall there be any abatement in these items nor the Fixed Minimum Rent if such damage is caused by the fault of Tenant. 14.1.1 Destruction of Building. In the event that fifty percent (50%) of more of the rentable area of the Building shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other cause, notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein and that the Demised Premises may be unaffected by such fire or other cause, Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised by notice in writing delivered to Tenant days within sixty (60) after said occurrence, to elect to cancel and terminate this Lease. Upon the giving of such notice to Tenant, the term of this Lease shall expire by lapse of time upon the third day after such notice is given, and Tenant shall vacate the Demised Premises and surrender the same to Landlord. 14.1.2 Damage Near End of Term. If the Demised Premises are destroyed or damaged during the last eighteen (18) months of the term of this Lease and the estimated cost of repair exceeds ten percent (10% ) of the Fixed Minimum Rent then remaining to be paid by Tenant for the balance of the term, Landlord may at its option cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Tenant of its election to do so within forty five (45) days after the date of occurrence of such damage. If Landlord shall not so elect to terminate this Lease, the repair of such damage shall be governed by Section 15.01. 14.1.3 Reconstruction of Improvement. In the event of any reconstruction of the Demised Premises under this Section, said reconstruction shall be in substantial conformity with the provisions of Exhibit "B-2" hereof to the extent of the work as therein set forth as "Landlord's Work".

Landlord shall commence the Landlord’s Work as soon as possible and shall diligently prosecute same for re-delivery of possession of the Demised Premises to Tenant upon completion. Tenant shall commence the installation of fixtures, equipment and merchandise hereof promptly upon delivery to it of possession of the Demised Premises and shall diligently prosecute such installation to completion. 14.1.4 Termination.

ARTICLE XV: GOVERNMENT TAKING

15 Eminent Domain

15.1 Eminent Domain. If the whole of the Demised Premises shall be acquired or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, then the term of this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of title vesting in the condemning governmental body or other authority pursuant to such proceeding and all rentals and other charges shall be paid up to that date and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease.

15.2 Partial Condemnation. If a part of the Demised Premises shall be acquired or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, and such partial taking or condemnation shall render the Demised Premises unsuitable for the business of the Tenant, then the term of this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of title vesting in the condemning governmental body or other

Lease Agreement Page 24 of 62 LL: BV |T: authority pursuant to such proceeding and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. In the event of a partial taking or condemnation which is not extensive enough to render the Demised Premises unsuitable for the business of the Tenant, then Landlord shall promptly restore the Demised Premises to a condition comparable to its condition at the time of such condemnation less that portion lost in the taking, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that the fixed Minimum Annual Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the portion of the Demised Premises lost in the taking; provided, however, there shall be no reduction to other or additional rent (except as it may relate to the reduced portion of the Demised Premises) as a result of such partial taking or condemnation. In the event that fifty percent (50%) or more of the rent-area of the Building shall be acquired or condemned by eminent domain, the Landlord shall have a similar right to cancel and terminate this Lease as provided in Section 15.1.

15.3 Landlord's Damages. In the event of any condemnation or taking as hereinbefore provided, whether whole or partial, the Tenant shall not be entitled to any part of the award, as damages or otherwise, for such condemnation and Landlord is to receive the full amount of such award, the Tenant hereby expressly waives any right or claim to any part thereof.

15.4 Tenant's Damages. Although all damages in the event of any condemnation are to belong to the Landlord whether such damages are awarded as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or the fee of the Demised Premises, Tenant shall have 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 Tenant's own right on account of any damage to Tenant's business by reason of the condemnation and for or on account of any cost or loss to which Tenant might be put in removing Tenant's merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements and equipment.

15.5 Sale Under Threat of Condemnation. A sale by Landlord to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes under this Article.

16.1.1.6 In the event Tenant, before the expiration of said term, and without the written consent of the Landlord, vacates said Demised Premises or abandons the possession thereof, or uses the same for purposes other than for which the same are hereby leased, or ceases to use the Demised Premises for the purposes herein expressed;

16.1.1.7 In the event an execution or other legal process is levied upon the goods, furniture, effects or other property of Tenant brought on said Demised Premises, or upon the interest of Tenant in this Lease, and the same is not satisfied or dismissed within ten (10) days from such levy;

16.2.1 If any Event of Default occurs, the Landlord shall have the right, at the option of Landlord, to terminate this Lease upon three (3) days written notice to Tenant, and to thereupon reenter and take possession of the Demised Premises with or without legal process. If any Event of Default occurs, Landlord shall have the right, at its option, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, to reenter and relet the Demised Premises, or any part thereof, with or without legal process, as the agent and for the account of Tenant upon such terms and conditions as Landlord may deem advisable or satisfactory, in which event the rents received on such reletting shall be applied first to the expense of such reletting and collection including but not limited to, necessary renovation and alterations of the Demised Premises, reasonable attorney's fees, any real estate commissions paid, and thereafter toward payment of all sums due or to become due Landlord hereunder, and if a sufficient sum shall not be thus realized or secured to pay such sums and other charges, (i) at Landlord's option, Tenant shall pay Landlord any deficiency monthly, notwithstanding Landlord may have received rental in excess of the rental stipulated in this Lease in previous or subsequent months, and Landlord may bring an action therefor as such monthly deficiency shall arise, or (ii) at Landlord's option, the entire deficiency, which is subject to ascertainment for the remaining term of this Lease, shall be immediately due and payable by Tenant. Nothing herein, however, shall be constructed to require Landlord to reenter and relet in any event. The Landlord shall not, in any case, be required to pay Tenant any surplus of any sums received by Landlord on a reletting of said Demised Premises in excess of the rent provided in this Lease.

16.2.2 If any Event of Default occurs, the Landlord shall have the right, at its option, to declare the rents for the entire remaining term and other indebtedness, if any, immediately due and payable without regard to whether possession shall have been surrendered to or taken from Landlord, and may commence action immediately thereupon and recover judgment therefor.

Lease Agreement Page 26 of 62 LL: BV |T: 16.2.3 If any Event of Default occurs, the Landlord, in addition to other rights and remedies it may have, shall have the right to remove all or any part of the Tenant's property from the Demised Premises and any property removed may be stored in any public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of Tenant and the Landlord shall not be responsible for the care or safekeeping thereof, and the Tenant hereby waives any and all loss, destruction and/or damage or injury which may be occasioned by any of the aforesaid acts.

16.2.4 No such reentry or taking possession of the Demised Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at all times thereafter elect to terminate this lease for such previous default or breach. Any such reentry shall be allowed by Tenant without hindrance, and Landlord shall not be liable in damages for any such reentry, or guilty of trespass or forcible entry.

16.2.5 If any Event of Default occurs, the Landlord, in addition to other rights and remedies it may have, shall have the right to recapture as additional rent from Tenant a pro-rata share of any payment made as and for any related expense in procuring Tenant as a tenant of the Demised Premises including but not limited to brokerage commissions or finders fees paid by Landlord in connection with the execution of the Lease or any extension, renewal thereof by Tenant.

16.2.6 Any rental which may be due Landlord, whether by acceleration or otherwise, as herein provided in this Article, shall include the percentage and fixed Minimum Annual Rent and any other costs and expenses denominated as additional rentals in this Lease.

16.2.7 Any and all rights, remedies and options given in this Lease to Landlord shall be cumulative and in addition to and without waiver of, or in derogation of, any right or remedy given to it under any law now or hereafter in effect. The failure on the part of the Landlord to exercise promptly any rights given here under shall not operate to forfeit any of the said rights, all of which shall be cumulative.

16.2.8 If the Event of Default is a default of any rental payment or any other payment due under this Lease, Landlord may in Landlord's notice to Tenant of such Event of Default, require the Tenant's payment to cure the default be in cash, cashier's check, and/or certified check. Landlord and Tenant agree that should Landlord so elect to require payment by cash, cashier's check or certified check in Landlord's notice to Tenant, a tender of money to cure the default which is not in the form requested by Landlord shall be deemed a failure to cure the default. In the event Tenant fails to make any rental payment within five (5) days of the date due, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord an administrative late fee of Twenty Five ($50.00) dollars. Should Tenant within any twelve (12) month period fail three (3) time to make rental payments in a timely manner, Tenant agrees to tender an additional Security Deposit of One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dollars. Nothing contained in this article shall in any way diminish or be construed as waiving any of Landlord's other remedies as provided elsewhere in this Lease, or by law or in equity. 16.2.9 Bad Checks. If any check given to Landlord for any payment under this Lease is dishonored for any reason whatsoever not attributable to Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord, at Landlord's option, all future payments from Tenant shall be made by cashier's check drawn on a bank located in the county where the Premises are located or by Federal Reserve wire transfer to Landlord's account.

16.3 Waiver. The waiver by Landlord of any breach of any term, condition or covenant herein contained shall not be a waiver of such term, condition or covenant, or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, condition or covenant herein contained. The consent or approval by Landlord to or of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent similar act by Tenant. No reentry hereunder shall bar the recovery or rents or damages for the breach of any of the terms, conditions or

Lease Agreement Page 27 of 62 LL: BV |T: covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. The receipt of rent after breach or condition broken, or delay on the part of Landlord to enforce any right hereunder, shall not be deemed a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, or a waiver of the right of Landlord to annul this Lease or to reenter said Demised Premises or to relet same.

16.4 Expenses of Enforcement. In the event any payment due Landlord under this Lease shall not be paid on the due date plus the grace period provided under § 16.1.1.1, said payment shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate of interest then allowable pursuant to North Carolina law (the “Default Rate”), from the due date until paid unless otherwise specifically provided herein, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. [It is the intent of the Landlord that in no event shall the Tenant pay interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted to be paid under the laws of the State of North Carolina. If for any reason the stated or effective interest should exceed the maximum lawful interest, the effective interest shall be deemed reduced to, and shall be, such maximum lawful interest.] In the event that it shall be necessary for Landlord to give more than one (1) written notice to Tenant of any violation of this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to make an administrative charge to Tenant of Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($50.00) for each such notice. Tenant recognizes and agrees that the charges which Landlord is entitled to make upon the conditions stated in this Section represent, at the time this Lease is made, a fair and reasonable estimate and liquidation of the costs of Landlord in the administration of the Building resulting from the events described which costs are not contemplated or included in any other rental or charges provided to be paid by Tenant to Landlord in this Lease. Any charges becoming due under this Section of this Lease shall be added and become due with the next ensuing monthly payment of Fixed Minimum Rent and shall be collectible as a part thereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, in no event shall Tenant pay interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted to be paid under the laws of the State of North Carolina. 16.5 Legal Expenses. In the event it shall become necessary for Landlord to employ the services of an attorney to enforce any of its rights under this Lease or to collect any sums due to it under this Lease or to remedy the breach of any covenant of this Lease on the part of the Tenant to be kept or performed, regardless of whether suit be brought, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such reasonable fee as shall be charged by Landlord's attorney for such services. Should suit be brought for the recovery of possession of the Demised Premises, or for rent or any other sum due Landlord under this Lease, or because of the breach of any of Tenant's covenants under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all expenses of such suit and any appeal thereof, the cost of post judgment collection, including a reasonable attorney's fee.

22.15 Bankruptcy. If there shall be filed against Tenant in any court, pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any state, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or reorganization or the appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a portion of Tenant's property or if Tenant shall voluntarily file any such petition then, and in that event, the Lease shall be deemed cancelled and terminated, subject to the right of the trustee, with the court's approval, to timely assume the unexpired Lease, provided, however, such trustee faithfully complies with the provisions of subsection (b), (c) and (d) of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978. If Tenant shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or enter into an arrangement, this Lease shall at Landlord’s sole option be deemed cancelled and terminated, in which event neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant shall be entitled to acquire or remain in possession of the Demised Premises and Landlord shall have no further liability hereunder to Tenant and any such person, if in possession, shall forthwith quit and surrender the Demised Premises. 22.15.1 It is stipulated and agreed that in the event of the termination of this Lease pursuant to this Article, Landlord shall forthwith, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary, be entitled to recover from Tenant as and for damages an amount equal to the difference between the Gross Rent and additional rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the term demised and the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised Premises for the same period. In the computation of such damages, the difference between any installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination and the fair and reasonable value of the Demised Premises for the period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of termination at the rate of four per cent (4%) per annum. If the Demised Premises, or any part thereof, be re-let by the Landlord for the unexpired term of said Lease, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such re-letting shall be prima facie evidence as to the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the whole of the premises so re-let during the term of the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Landlord to prove for and obtain as damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the difference referred to above.

22.16 Franchise. In the event the Tenant is a franchisee, this leasehold will be deemed conditioned upon the continued good standing of the Tenant's franchise agreement and the termination of the franchise shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute a default hereunder. In the event the Tenant's franchisor, as part of the franchise agreement or through a conditional assignment of Tenant's interest in the Lease has the right to take over the Premises upon the happening of said event, at the option of Landlord, Tenant's franchisor may continue the business in the Premises. Landlord shall not be a party to any litigation between the Tenant's franchisor and the Tenant and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any legal or other expense incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. If Tenant is a franchisee, Tenant agrees that Landlord may send to Tenant's franchisor notice of any default of Tenant

Lease Agreement Page 36 of 62 LL: BV |T: under this Lease, without incurring any liability to Tenant in connection therewith. In the event that Tenant's franchise agreement is terminated by the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Tenant's franchisor, Tenant agrees to thereafter conduct its business and operations in the same manner as they were conducted prior to such termination to the end that the image of Tenant (and therefore the Building and the Center) shall remain substantially unchanged as a result of the termination of the franchise. INTENTIONALLY DELETED. Franchise. Landlord shall not be a party to any litigation between the Tenant's franchisor and the Tenant and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any legal or other expense incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. Said indemnification and agreement to hold the Landlord harmless is, in part, the consideration for the assignment rights granted in Section 10.3. Tenant agrees that Landlord may send to Tenant's franchisor notice of any default of Tenant under this Lease, without incurring any liability to Tenant in connection therewith

22.17 Guaranty. The payment of all rents and charges, and the performance of all covenants of Tenant, required by this Lease, are guaranteed pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and made a part hereof.

22.18 No Option. The submission by Landlord to Tenant of this Lease shall be deemed solely for Tenant's consideration and not for acceptance. Such submission with the required deposits needed under this Lease constitute(s) non-binding negotiations relating to the potential leasing by the Tenant of the Demised Premises. The Tenant shall acquire no rights and the Landlord shall assume no obligations as a result of the foregoing or as a result of any prior negotiations relative to the potential leasing of the demised premises, or as a result of any previously drafted or executed letters of intent, until this Lease is fully executed by all parties to it.

Two and one half (2.5%) percent over the base rent of the last year of the First Term (i.e., year 5) and an additional two and one half (2.5%) percent increase each year during each year of the Second Term. (b) Year 11 – 15. The fair market rental value (“FMRV”) of the Premises at the time of renewal of the Third Term, as mutually agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant, but in no event shall the Minimum Annual Rent during any year of the Third Term be less than the Minimum Annual Rent of the preceding year. Any disputes regarding the determination of fair market rental value shall be resolved through binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association. (A provision will be added about the costs of the Arbitration.) The Rent for year 12 through 15 of the Third Term shall be equal to the Minimum Annual Rent agreed to be the FMRV multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the most recently published Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical workers (U.S. City Average: All items), issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.

The calculation shall use the CPI Index as of the first day of the renewal term, and the denominator of which is the CPI Index which was in effect on the Commencement Date of the original Term of the Lease. The foregoing not withstanding, the Minimum Annual Rent during year 12 through 15 of the Third Term shall be greater of the adjustment calculated using the CPI Index or two and one half (2.5%) percent. (c) The grant of said Option shall be subject to and conditioned upon the full and complete performance and compliance without breach or default by Tenant of all each and every of the terms and conditions of the Lease during the entire term of the Lease. Upon or after Tenant's default or breach of any term or condition, Landlord may at any time after said breach and at Landlord's option rescind and cancel said Option. The Tenant specifically acknowledges that any material breach or non-compliance or multiple late payment of rent or additional rents shall constitute sufficient justification for the Landlord to rescind and cancel said Option Tenant not being in material default beyond the applicable cure period either at the time of exercise of its right to renew or upon the effective date of the related Option Period. However, the Tenant specifically acknowledges that multiple material breaches and or multiple late payment of Rent or Additional Rent shall constitute good and sufficient cause for the Landlord to rescind and cancel said Option.

In addition to the above Fixed Minimum Annual Rent as adjusted, the Tenant shall pay its proportional charges of the following: (i) Real Estate Taxes and Improvement Assessments (section 2.5); (ii) Insurance Premiums (section 2.7) and (iii) Tenant to Bear Pro Rata Share of Building Operating Cost (section 2.10) or as specified elsewhere in this Lease.
