delinquency is settled prior to the expiration of a full month, the interest charge shall
be computed on the basis of the fractional part of the month that has already expired
or lapsed.

The foregoing penalty or late charges do not operate to divest the Lessor the right to
bring the appropriate civil, criminal or administrative action against the Lessee, his
assigns and/or successors-in-interest, before the proper courts of justice should the
circumstances warrant.

IX. NON-PAYMENT: Should the Lessee refuse or fail to pay the rent & power

and/or termination of Contract of Lease afforded to it by law by virtue either of the
nature of its business or existence.

Furthermore, unpaid rents, electric power consumption, and other monetary


obligations payable by the Lessee to the Lessor under this Contract of Lease shall
constitute a preferred lien on all personal properties of the Lessee found or located in
the leased premises. For this purpose, the Lessor is hereby authorized to prevent the
removal of the said properties from the Leased Premises or demand their return from
any possessor thereof.

In cases wherein the Lessee cannot pay the rent, electric power consumption, and
other liabilities, the Lessee may opt to settle any unpaid rent and obligations through
dacion en pago subject to the approval of the Lessor, provided, that the right to
appraise any property of the Lessee shall exclusively belong to the Lessor.

public utilities and otherwise take full and complete physical possession and control
of the Leased Premises without resorting to court action; and that Lessee hereby

For this purpose, the Lessee hereby excuses, abandons and otherwise frees the
Lessor from any liability, criminal, civil or administrative should the latter enforce the
authority to open, enter, occupy, padlock, secure, enclose, fence, and/or discontinue
MARTIN G. MALAGAR

public utilities and ultimately take full and complete possession and control of the
leased premises. Finally, the Lessee likewise abandons, waives and vacates any
rights it may have under the law against the above-mentioned authority and/or
powers of the Lessor.

XX. ABANDONMENT OF LEASED PREMISES: In the event that the Lessee abandons,
as herein defined, the Leased Premises with or without notice to the Lessor, whether
or not rentals have been fully paid, the Lessor has the right to terminate the Contract
of Lease after the lapse of fifteen (15) days from said abandonment. Such
MARTIN G. MALAGAR

abandonment entitles the Lessor to demand payment of all unpaid rentals.

There is abandonment where there is cessation of business activity in the Leased


Premises, and no known representative of the Lessee may be contacted by the
Lessor as regards said abandonment. There is likewise abandonment when the
Lessee keeps its establishment within the Leased Premises closed for a continuous
period of thirty (30) days, regular, special non-working, and other holidays included.

In such cases of abandonment, Lessee hereby allows Lessor full power and
authority to open, enter, occupy, padlock, secure, enclose, fence and/or discontinue
public utilities and otherwise take full and complete physical possession and control
of the Leased Premises without resorting to court action; and Lessee hereby allows

dispose in any manner which the lessor might deem appropriate.

A. ACCELERATION CLAUSE: In addition to the unpaid rentals, and in the


event of abandonment as herein defined, payment for the unexpired

demandable without prejudice to the right of the Lessor against the
Security Deposit.

XXI. TERMINATION OF THE LEASE: The Lessee agrees to return and surrender the
Leased Premises at the expiration of the term of this Contract of Lease in as good a
condition as reasonable wear and tear will permit, and without delays whatsoever,
devoid of all occupants, furniture, articles and effects of any kind other than such
alterations, additions or improvements which the Lessor may elect to take, subject to
pertinent conditions as herein set forth. The turnover shall be made peacefully.
WITNESSES:

In the event that the Lessee terminates this Contract of Lease prior to its expiration,
Lessee hereby binds himself to pay for the unexpired portion of the Contract of
Lease based on provisions in Paragraph No. III.

XXII. RENEWAL: Should the Lessee wish to renew this Contract of Lease upon its

parties shall be covered by a new Contract of Lease and shall take into consideration,
among others, an escalation of the rental rate not lower than an increase of five
percent (5%) of the prevailing rental rate.

XXIII. CONTINUED POSSESSION AFTER CONTRACT EXPIRATION: Should there be


no communication from the Lessee pertaining its desire to renew the Contract of
Lease but nonetheless continues to occupy the Leased Premises beyond the period
as herein stipulated, the following conditions shall apply:

month, renewable every fifth (5th) of the month, until such time as a fresh
Contract of Lease shall have been agreed and executed by the parties;

b. During the Continuation Lease, all conditions of the original contract shall
be binding and the Lessor may give a written notice or statement of rental
increase. Should the Lessee object to the increased rental rate, it is

9
incumbent upon it to inform the Lessor in writing of its objections.
Otherwise, failure to do so shall be construed as acceptance by the
Lessee of the increased rates.

c. The Security Deposit originally tendered shall cover the period of the
continuation lease until a fresh Contract of Lease shall have been
formally entered into by the parties. The Security Deposit will be charged
MARTIN G. MALAGAR

against the same conditions during such period. In addition thereto, the
Security Deposit shall also be conditioned to answer for breach of
contract as defined in paragraph (d) hereof.

d. The Lessor may require the Lessee to enter into a fresh Contract of
Lease with such terms and conditions it may deem fit by tendering to the
Lessee for signing, copies of the contracts. Failure to return signed copies
of the new set of Contracts of Lease within one (1) month from receipt
shall be considered a material breach of contract and may be a ground
for the forfeiture of the Security Deposit.

e. In the event that a new Contract of Lease shall have been agreed and
executed by the Lessor and the Lessee, the parties may choose to retain
LEONARD A. RIINGEN

whatever is left of the previously tendered Security Deposit after all its
charges shall have been satisfied, subject to such increase as may be
required in view of the escalation of monthly rental fee.

XXIV. NON-WAIVER: The failure of the Lessor to insist upon a strict performance of any of
