If, while the Landlord is in the process of satisfying its requirement to remove, abate or neutralize any hazardous materials as aforesaid, the Tenant shall be required to close its operations in the Premises, then the Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by the Tenant hereunder until the date the Landlord shall complete such removal, abatement or neutralization as aforesaid. 17. INDEPENDENT COVENANTS -NO WAIVER. 17.1 Each and every one of the covenants and agreements contained in this Lease shall be for all purposes construed to be separate and independent covenants and the waiver of the breach of any covenant contained herein by Landlord shall in no way or manner discharge or relieve Tenant from Tenant's obligation to perform each and every one of the covenants contained herein. 17.2 If any term or provision of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to any person or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 17.3 The failure of Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, to insist in any one or more cases upon the strict performance of any of the covenants of this Lease shall not be construed as a waiver of a relinquishment for the future of such covenant. A payment of Rent by Tenant or a receipt by Landlord of Rent, additional rent or other amount with knowledge in either case of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be. 18. LANDLORD'S TITLE; SUBORDINATION. 18.1 Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that Landlord is the owner of the Demised Premises in fee simple and that the same are subject to only those liens and encumbrances set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. Landlord further represents and warrants that all mortgagees have agreed (or with respect to future mortgagees, will agree) in writing that to the extent that they are the recipients of any insurance or condemnation proceeds pursuant to Sections 11 and 15, they shall be bound to fulfill the Landlord's obligations with respect thereto. 18.2 This Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder are subject and subordinate in all respects to all matters of record, including, without limitation, all mortgages which may now or hereafter be placed on or affect the Demised Premises, or any part thereof, and/or Landlord's interest or estate therein, and to each advance made and/or hereafter to be made under any such mortgages, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof, and all substitutions therefor; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that before such subordination shall be effective as to any mortgage or any other matter of record, Landlord shall cause the mortgagee, or other party in -8- interest, as the case may be, to deliver to Tenant, in proper form for recording, the agreement of such mortgagee or other party that (a) no foreclosure of such mortgage or any other person claiming by or through or under such mortgagee (or other interest) shall disturb the possession of Tenant under this Lease so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder and (b) that the validity and continuance of this Lease (including without limitation the obligation of such mortgagee to allocate insurance and condemnation proceeds in accordance with the provisions of Sections 11 and 15) will be recognized. Concurrently with the delivery of such an agreement, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver an instrument in proper form for recording, in which Tenant agrees to and does subordinate this Lease to the liens of such mortgagees and other matters, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations and replacements and extensions thereof, and to any persons claiming by, through or under such mortgagees or other such persons interest. Tenant shall, at the written request of Landlord, execute and deliver to any existing or future mortgagee a certificate indicating whether any claims, defenses or offsets then exist against Landlord, certifying that to the best of Tenant's knowledge, Landlord is not in default hereunder and that this Lease is in full force and effect and unmodified, except as specified in said certificate, indicating what rent has been paid and agreeing that this Lease may not be modified without the consent of such mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 19.

Tenant shall thereupon be entitled for a period of fifteen (15) days after the date of the Offeree Notice to purchase at the price and upon the terms set forth in the Offeree Notice all or any portion of the Demised Premises. If Tenant shall accept such Offer by written notice to Landlord within such time (such notice specifying a closing date being the later of sixty (60) days from the date thereof or the closing date specified in the Offer), such offer and acceptance shall constitute a contract between them for the sale by Landlord and the purchase by Tenant of the Demised Premises and shall not thereafter be subject to rejection by either party. 19.2 If the Offer to sell is not so accepted by Tenant, Landlord may thereafter sell the Demised Premises to such BONA FIDE third party purchaser on the terms contained in the Offer. Any such sale and transfer must be consummated within 180 days following the expiration of the time hereinabove provided for the acceptance by Tenant. If the Demised Premises are sold to such third party, the sale shall be subject to this Lease and all of the provisions hereof except that this right of first refusal shall expire upon such conveyance. 19.3 Upon the date fixed for any purchase of the Demised Premises hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the purchase therefor and Landlord shall convey its interest in the Demised Premises to Tenant by quitclaim deed. 20.
