$1,000.00 per unit, or $2,000.00 in the aggregate for the Units, to be held as a "Damage Deposit".

after termination of this lease, provided that: (a) all provisions and conditions of this lease have
been complied with; (b) Lessee has maintained and left the Units in good order and condition as

(c) the affected Units have been vacated and all keys have been returned to Lessor. Damage
Deposits and/or any other deposits may, but are not required to be, deposited into an interest-

shall be property solely of Lessor. The relevant Damage Deposit and all other deposits are
subject to deduction or forfeiture for unpaid rent, utility charges, returned check charges, damage
to either of the Units, their contents or the common areas, smoke or stain removal, unreturned
keys, administrative charges, reletting fees, collection costs and cleaning charges. At the
expiration of this lease a reasonable cleaning charge shall be deducted from the Damage Deposit

assignment for the benefit of its creditors, shall be unable to pay its obligations as they become
due, or if Lessee shall file or there shall be filed with respect to Lessee any petition or order for
relief under the federal bankruptcy laws or the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of any other
jurisdiction, then and in those events Lessor may reenter and take possession of any or all of the
Units without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of Rent or Utility Charges or other sums due
under this Lease. No such reentry or taking possession of any Units by Lessor shall be construed
as an election by Lessor to terminate this Lease unless it gives Lessee written notice of such a
termination. If this Lease is terminated, Lessee shall remain liable to Lessee for damages in an
amount equal to the Rent and Utility Charges and other amounts payable under this Lease for the
balance of the term of this Lease as if this Lease had not been terminated, less the net proceeds
from any subsequent reletting or any Subleases accepted and recognized by Lessor as direct
leases from Lessor to the Subtenants of the affect Units, after deducting all expenses associated
therewith. Lessee shall pay such amounts to Lessor monthly, on the days on which such sums
otherwise wound have been payable. The rights and remedies stated in this Section are
cumulative, and do not limit or impair any other right or remedy at law or in equity.
9. Casualty Loss. If any of the Units are rendered untenantable or are damaged or destroyed by fire
or other casualty and if in the Buffalo Ridge Affordable Housing Corporation management's
reasonable determination such repairs or rebuilding cannot be substantially completed within
thirty days after the occurrence of such casualty, then (i) this Lease shall terminate only as to the
affected Units and all Rent and Utility Charges for the affected Units shall be payable with
respect to the period ending upon the date of such injury or damage, and (ii) Lessor and the
Buffalo Ridge Affordable Housing Corporation shall have the authority to designate an additional
unit in the complex in substitution for the Unit affected by such casualty loss, and Lessee shall
accept such additional unit under the same conditions of this lease. If any of the Units are
rendered untenantable or are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty and Lessor
determines to rebuild or repair such Units, and if in Lessor's determination such repairs or
rebuilding can substantially be completed within thirty days after the occurrence of such casualty,
Lessor shall do so with reasonable diligence and this Lease and the Subleases of the affected
Units shall not be affected, except that the Rent and Utility Charges for the affected Units (or a
just and proportionate part thereof according to the nature and extent of the damage which has
been sustained) shall be abated until the affected Units have been so repaired and restored.
10. Insurance. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor or the Buffalo Ridge Affordable Housing
Corporation's insurance does not cover the personal property of Lessee or any of their guests.
Lessee is advised to purchase insurance coverage for loss to personal property due to fire, theft,
water damage and other unfortunate events, liability coverage, and other appropriate insurance
coverage.
11. Successors and Assigns. This Lease shall be binding on the parties and their permitted successors
and assigns. Except as expressly permitted by this Lease, Lessee shall not assign any of its rights
or obligations under this Lease or sublet any of the Unit without the prior written consent of
Lessor. Any such assignment of sublease without such prior \vritten consent shall be void.
12. Holding Over. If after the expiration of this Lease, Lessee or any Subtenants remain in
possession of any Units, with the permission of Lessor but without written modification of this
Lease extending the term of this Lease or modifying the amount of Rent, such possession shall
not constitute a renewal of this Lease for all or any part of the term of this Lease, and Lessee shall
be a tenant, and any Subtenants shall be subtenants, of the affected Units from month to month at
a monthly Rent in Utilities Charge payable in advance, equal to 150% of the monthly Rent and
Utilities Charge payable under this Lease for the last month of the term of this Lease, but
otherwise subject to all of the other terms and conditions of this Lease.

covenants or agreements of Lessee shall be deemed or taken to be a waiver of any succeeding or
