present value discount factor to calculate the same.

Default in lieu of exercising the rights of Lessor under the preceding
paragraph, Lessor may instead hold Lessee liable for all Rent and other

to be paid by Lessee to Lessor during the remainder of the Term until the
date of expiration of the Term as stated in Paragraph 2, diminished by any
net sums thereafter received by Lessor through re -letting the Leased Area
during said period (after deducting expenses incurred by Lessor as
provided in Subparagraph G hereof). In no event shall Lessee be entitled
to any Rent herein reserved. Actions to collect amounts due by Lessee as
provided in this Paragraph 13.F. may be brought from time to time, on one
Page 10of19

pay to Lessor, at Fort Worth, Tarrant County Texas, in addition to any
sum provided to be paid above: Broker's fees incurred by Lessor in

any obligation to do so and without thereby waiving such default, may
make such payment and/or remedy such other Event of Default for the
