The LESSEE shall not indirectly sublease, assign, transfer, convey, mortgage
or in any way encumber the right of lease over the leased premises of any
portion of it. The parties agree that the personal character of the LESSEE
and the nature of occupancy of the leased premises constitute special
considerations and inducements for granting of the lease by the LESSOR.
The LESSOR has a preferred lien over the properties of the LESSEE in the
leased premises to answer for any obligations that the latter may be liable
at the end of the agreement.
12. DEFAULT:
The LESSEE agrees that all the covenants and agreement in this Contract
are essential to its validity and continuity. If at any time stipulated rental or
any part of it becomes in arrears or unpaid, or if the LESSEE fails or neglects
to perform or comply with any of the terms, conditions, agreements or
restrictions provided in this contract or if the LESSEE becomes bankrupt or
insolvent or compounds with his creditors, then in any such cases, the
LESSOR shall have the right to terminate and cancel this contract of lease if
the LESSEE fails to remedy the same within thirty (30) days from notice to
remedy, in such case, the termination shall be effective fifteen (15) days
after notice of termination is delivered at the leased premises.
The LESSEE agrees to pay the costs of transfer and storage of the personal
properties mentioned. Further, the LESSEE hereby holds his above attorney-
in-fact free from any liability whatsoever arising from his exercise of power
and authority provided in this paragraph, indemnifying him (attorney-in-
fact) against any claim subsequently made by reason of this above acts.
14. At the termination of the lease for whatever cause, the LESSOR shall
reimburse itself out of cash deposit made for unpaid rentals, the LESSOR
shall deliver the residue of the deposits if any to the LESSEE, after it has
turned over the leased premises to the LESSOR. However, if the security
deposit is not enough, then the LESSOR has the right to hold and dispose
the personal properties of the LESSEE to satisfy the balance of the
obligation.
15. In the event the LESSOR elects to terminate the lease for violation of
any of the conditions of the lease, the LESSEE must vacate and surrender
the leased premises within the period demanded, otherwise, the latter will
be liable for every month of the current rental for every month of delay

until possession of the leased premises is completely restored to the
LESSOR.
16. HOLD-OVER:
If after this lease has terminated for any reason, the LESSEE continuous the
occupation of the premises with the consent of the LESSOR, the extension
of the lease shall be understood as running from month to month only,
under the same terms and conditions herein stipulated and may be
terminated by either party by written notice to served upon the party at
least thirty (30) days in advance of the date of such termination.
17. OTHERS:
The failure of the LESSOR to insist upon a strict performance of any of the
terms and conditions in the Contract shall not be deemed a relinquishment
or waiver of any subsequent breach or default of the terms and conditions
and covenant herein contained, which shall be deemed to have made
unless expressed in writing and signed by the LESSOR.
This Contract of Lease supersedes and renders void any and all
agreements and understanding, oral and written previously entered
between the parties covering the property leased, and this contract may
not hereafter be modified or altered except by instrument in writing duly
signed by the parties.
