suitable for Tenant's requirements, and no such change, failure, defect, unavailability, or
unsuitability shall constitute an actual or constructive eviction, in whole or in part, or
entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of rent, or relieve Tenant from any of its
obligations under the Lease. ly

Lease effective as of the date of the written notification, or (ii) this Lease shall not
terminate, and Landlord shall proceed, to the extent of insurance proceeds actually
received by Landlord after the exercise by any mortgagee of the Property of any option
to apply proceeds against Landlord’s debt to such mortgagee, with reasonable diligence
to rebuild or repair the Shopping Center or other improvements to substantially the same
condition in which they existed prior to the damage. If the Leased Premises are to be
rebuilt or repaired and are untenantable in whole or in part following the damage, and
the damage or destruction was not caused or contributed to by act or negligence of
Tenant, its agents, employees invitees or those for whom Tenantis responsible, the Base
Rent payable under this Lease during the period for which the Leased Premises are
untenantable shall be reduced to an amount determined by multiplying the Base Rent
that would otherwise by payable but for this provision by the ratio that the portion of the
Leased Premises not rendered untenantable bears to the total net rentable area of the
Leased Premises prior to the casualty. Landlord’s obligation to rebuild or restore under
this Section shall be limited to restoring the Leased Premises to substantially the
condition in which the same existed prior to the casualty, exclusive of improvements for

same existed prior to the casualty and to otherwise make the Leased Premises suitable
for Tenant's use. If Landlord fails to substantially complete the necessary repairs or
rebuilding within one hundred eighty (180) working days from the date of Landlord's
receipt of written notification by Tenant of the destruction, Tenant may at its option,
terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord, whereupon
