required insurance coverage to lapse or fall below the minimum required;
c) Lessee otherwise breaches the terms of this lease.

perform said duties shall constitute a default under the terms of this agreement. In the
case of default/breach, the COUNTY shall first give LESSEE a written notification stating the
default/breach and that Lessee has ten (10) days to correct the default/breach. If the
Lessee has not commenced correction of the default/breach at the end of the 10 days, then
the COUNTY may terminate the lease in its discretion. If it shall be necessary to employ the
services of an attorney in order to enforce its rights under this Agreement, the COUNTY
shall be entitled to reasonable attorney's fees. Waiver of a default in any particular month
shall not bind the COUNTY to forego the provisions of this paragraph and any subsequent
default shall be grounds for termination. The COUNTY may in its discretion treat the
LESSEE in default and terminate this Agreement immediately, without prior notice, upon
failure of LESSEE to comply with any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may
be terminated by COUNTY if and when, for any reason its controlling lease is terminated by
the State, upon provision of reasonable notice. LESSEE may terminate this Agreement
upon giving thirty days prior written notice to COUNTY.

12. DEFAULT. LESSOR'S right to repossess, operate, or sublease: If the rental reserved
by this lease or other charges to be paid under this lease by LESSEE, or any part of this
lease, are not paid when due and remain unpaid for a period of 10 days after notice in
writing, or if LESSEE fails to promptly perform any covenant, condition, or agreement by it
to be performed under this lease and such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10)
days after notice in writing specifying the nature of such failure, or if LESSEE abandons the
demised premises, or if LESSEE breaches any obligation under this lease to be performed
by it which cannot be cured, then, and in any such event, LESSEE shall be deemed to be in
default and LESSOR, without further notice may at its option take possession of the leased
premises, including all improvements and fixtures and equipment located at, in or about
the premises.
By legal proceedings, LESSOR shall take, operate, or sublease the premises, in whole
or in part, for the account of the LESSEE as the LESSOR in good faith may deem proper, for
a term not exceeding the unexpired period of the full term of this lease. LESSOR shall
receive all proceeds and rent accruing from such operation or subleasing of the leased
premises or fixtures and equipment. LESSOR shall apply these proceeds first, to the
payment of all costs and expenses incurred by the LESSOR in obtaining the possession of,
and the operation or subleasing of the premises or fixtures and equipment, including
reasonable attorney's fees, commissions, and collection fees, and any alteration or repairs
reasonably necessary to enable the LESSOR to operate or sublease the premises or fixtures
and equipment; and second, to the payment of all such amounts as may be due or become
payable under the provisions of this lease. The remaining balance, if any, given by the
LESSOR to the LESSEE, shall be paid over to the LESSEE at the expiration of the full term
of this lease or on the sooner termination of the lease by written notice of termination.
Repossession or subleasing not a termination; LESSOR'S right to terminate not
forfeited: no Repossession, operation, or subleasing of the premises or of fixtures and
equipment shall be construed as an election by the LESSOR to terminate this lease unless a
written notice of such intention is given by the LESSOR to the LESSEE. Notwithstanding any
such operation or subleasing without termination of this lease, the LESSOR may at any
time after that elect to terminate the lease in the event that the LESSEE remains in default
under this lease.
LESSEE'S obligation to pay deficiencies: in the event of the proceeds of rentals
received by the LESSOR under the provisions of this Section are insufficient to pay all costs
and expenses and all amounts due and becoming due under this lease, the LESSEE shall
pay to the LESSOR on demand such deficiency as may occur or exist.
LESSOR'S right to terminate lease: In the event of LESSEE'S default, LESSOR may,
at its option without further notice, terminate this lease and all interest of LESSEE under
this lease, and may then take possession of the leased premises by legal proceedings.
LESSOR'S right on termination to recover amount equal to rent reserved: If this
lease is terminated by the LESSOR by reason of any default by LESSEE, LESSOR shall be
entitled to recover from the LESSEE, at the time of such termination the excess, if any, of
the amount of rent reserved in this lease for the balance of the term of the lease.
LESSOR'S remedies are cumulative: Each and all of the remedies given to the
LESSOR in this lease or by law are cumulative, and the exercise of one right of remedy
shall not impair its right to exercise any other right or remedy.
13. DEFAULT-WAIVER. The waiver by the LESSEE or the COUNTY of an act or
omission that constitutes a default of an obligation under this Agreement does not waive
another default of that or any other obligation.
5
