<br />property placed in the premises for Lessee, upon termination of the lease. In the event that
<br />Lessor requires Lessee to remove such alterations, additions, or improvements, Lessor shall
<br />repair any damage to the premises caused by such removal.

<br />Lessee shall not by its own action cause any mechanic's lien or liens to be placed upon
<br />the leased premises or upon improvements on the premises Any amounts paid by Lessor to
<br />remove a mechanic's lien caused to be filed against the premises or against improvements on
<br />the premises by the direct actions of Lessee, including expenses and interest, shall be due from
<br />Lessee to Lessor and shall be repaid to Lessor immediately on rendition of written notice.
<br />Should Lessee in good faith believe that a mechanic’s lien filed against the leased
<br />premises because of the direct actions of Lessee is improper in any respect, Lessee may contest
<br />said lien, provided that the Lessee holds Lessor harmless because of such contest. In any event,
<br />Lessee shall not be responsible for any mechanic’s lien or liens placed on the leased premises
<br />or upon improvements on the premises placed on same by the Lessor or the Lessor’s agent(s)
<br />or representative(s).

<br />only to such extent, Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold Lessor harmless against any and all
<br />claims, demands, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees for the
<br />defense of such claims and demands, arising from the conduct or management of Lessee's
<br />business on the leased premises or from Lessee’s use of the leased premises, or from any breach
<br />on the part of Lessee of any conditions of this lease, or from any act or negligence of Lessee,
<br />his agents, contractors, employees, subtenants, concessionaires, or licensees in or about the
<br />leased premises. This provision shall not be construed to in any way waive, limit, or minimize
<br />Lessee’s right to limit or escape liability pursuant to the Texas Torts Claim Act, to claim the
<br />defense of Sovereign Immunity, or to invoke any and all other defenses, immunities, limitations
<br />of liability, or other rights, afforded or extended to Lessee, its agents, officers, employees, or
<br />other representatives, as governmental entities or otherwise, by the Constitution and laws of
<br />the United States and the State of Texas.

<br />If the leased premises or any structures or improvements on the leased premises should
<br />be damaged or destroyed by fire, tornado, or other casualty, Lessee shall give immediate
<br />written notice of the damages or destruction to Lessor, including a description of the damage
<br />and, as far as known to Lessee, the cause of the damage.
