All policies of insurance required of Lessee shall have terms of not less than one (1)year. Lessee has advised Lessor that Lessee is self-insured and carries excess liability coverage, and is subject to limited immunity from claims under Section 768.28, Fla. Stat.

The obligations of Lessee to pay any Deferred Rent Amount which is not paid as a result of this provision shall terminate five years from the original date such amount would 4 DocuSign Envelope ID:COC86654-C81 D-4414-13F24-C40133413FF57 have been paid without regard to this provision and Lessor shall have no further right to receive any such amount." 13.
