Statement by Lessor

The acceptance by Lessor of payments by the pledgee or any transferee of the pledged security on account of rent or additional rent shall not constitute a waiver of the aforesaid provisions.

(i) The Lessor agrees that it shall give to any holder of a security interest in the shares of the Lessor specified in the recitals of this lease or mortgagee of this lease who so requests (any such holder being hereinafter referred to as a "Secured Party") a copy of any notice of default which the Lessor gives to the Lessee pursuant to the terms of this lease, and if the Lessee shall fail to cure the default specified in such notice within the time and in the manner provided for in this lease, then the Secured Party shall have an additional period of time, equal to the time originally given to the Lessee, to cure said default for the

After resuming possession, the Lessor may, at its option, from time to time (i) relet the apartment for its own account, or (ii) relet the apartment as the agent of the lessee, in the name of the Lessee or in its own name, for a term or terms which may be less than or greater than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease, and may grant concessions or free rent, in its discretion. Any reletting of the apartment shall be deemed for the account of the Lessee, unless within ten days after such reletting the Lessor shall notify the Lessee that the premises have been relet for the Lessor's own account. The fact that the Lessor may have relet the apartment as agent for the Lessee shall not prevent the Lessor from thereafter notifying the Lessee that it proposes to relet the apartment for its own account. If the Lessor relets the apartment as agent for the Lessee, it shall after reimbursing itself for its expenses in connection therewith, including leasing commissions and a reasonable amount for attorneys' fees and expenses, and decorations, alterations and repairs in and to the apartment, apply the remaining avails of such reletting against the Lessee's continuing obligations hereunder.

From and after the date upon which the Lessor becomes obligated to account to the Lessee, as above provided, the Lessor shall have no further




26








duty to account to the Lessee for any avails of reletting and the Lessee shall have no further liability for sums thereafter accruing hereunder, but such termination of the Lessee's liability shall not affect any liabilities theretofore accrued.



Collection of Rent from Subtenants


(b) If the Lessee shall at any time sublet the apartment and shall default in the payment of any rent or additional rent, the Lessor may, at its option, so long as such default shall continue, demand and receive from the subtenant the rent due or becoming due from such subtenant to the Lessee, and apply the amount to pay sums due and to become due from the Lessee to the Lessor. Any payment by a subtenant to the Lessor shall constitute a discharge of the obligation of such subtenant to the Lessee to the extent of the amount so paid. The acceptance of rent from any subtenant shall not be deemed a consent to or approval of any subletting or assignment by the Lessee, or a release or discharge of any of the obligations of the Lessee hereunder.



Sale of Shares

Friday 9:00 A.M. through 10:00 P.M.


Saturday, noon through 10:00 P.M.


Sunday, noon through 10:00 P.M.


Legal Holidays, noon through 9:00 P.M.



if such musical instrument or Sound Machine shall disturb other occupants of the building. A "Sound Machine" is collectively defined as follows:


(5).2.1. Phonograph, radio, television, video tape player, audio tape player, CD player, or computer; or



(5).2.2. Any electronic or mechanical device with or without a loud speaker which is designed to reproduce or amplify sound; or



(5).2.3. Any other device or appliance that makes noise, even if making noise is not its primary purpose.



(5).3. An apartment which was created by combining one or more apartments shall be considered one apartment for the purposes of this House Rule #5.



(5).4. Anything contained in this House Rule #5 to the contrary notwithstanding, this House Rule shall not be deemed to prevent a Lessee from operating one or multiple musical instruments or Sound Machines simultaneously if by nature and design 100% of the noise remains contained in the apartment from


which such noise emanates. Such containment measures may include but shall not be limited to the use of headphones or acoustical installations.



(5) .5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary (except as provided in paragraph (5).4. above), in no event shall:



(a) noise exceed 45 decibels (including ambient street noise when the windows are closed) as heard in another Lessee's apartment, except during construction pursuant to an alteration agreement entered into between Lessor and Lessee,



(b) more than one musical instrument or Sound Machine be operated in any one apartment at one time.



(5).6. If a Lessee advises the Board in writing that such Lessee is being disturbed by noise emanating from another apartment, then the Board shall attempt to mediate the dispute, if any. If the mediation fails, the complaining Lessee may hire an engineer to measure the alleged noise heard in the complaining Lessee's apartment. Costs of the engineer shall be at the complaining Lessee's expense, except if the Board, in its sole discretion, elects to reimburse the complaining Lessee. Reimbursement of such fees is contingent upon the Board's determination of the following factors, in addition to such other factors as the Board may deem relevant:


(5).6.1. that these House Rules have been violated;



(5).6.2. that mediation has failed; and



(5).6.3. further legal action is necessary to resolve the dispute.



The Board may then take such legal action, which, in its sole opinion, it deems most appropriate.



(5).7. No construction or repair work or other installation involving noise shall be conducted in any apartment except on weekdays (not including legal holidays) and only between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 6:00 P.M., except if specifically authorized in advance in writing by the Board.


(5).8. If any provision, paragraph, or subparagraph of this Rule is adjudged by any court of law to be void or unenforceable, in whole or part, such adjudication shall not be deemed to affect the validity of the remainder of the Rule, including any other provision, paragraph, and subparagraph. Each provision, paragraph, and subparagraph of this Rule is declared to be separable from every other provision, paragraph, and subparagraph and constitutes a separate and distinct rule.

REVISED HOUSE RULF #21 ADOPTED OCTOBER 14,1997


(ANNEX TO EXISTING HOUSE RULES)


That Article (21) of the House Rules is amended as follows:



(21) Unless expressly authorized by the Board Of Directors in each case, the floors of each apartment must be covered with rugs or carpeting or equally effective noise-reducing material to the extent of at least 80% of the floor area of each room excepting only kitchens, pantries, bathrooms, maid's rooms and closets.




UNSOLD SHARES



The amendment to the Proprietary Lease substitutes a new Paragraph 38.(a), as follows:


38. (a) The term "Unsold Shares" means and has exclusive reference to the shares of the Lessor which were issued to the Lessor's grantor(s) or individuals produced by the Lessor's grantor(s) pursuant to the Plan of cooperative organization of Lessor; and, all shares which are Unsold Shares shall be designated as Unsold Shares and shall retain their character as such (regardless of transfer) until (1) such shares become the property of a purchaser for bona fide occupancy (by himself or a member of his family) of the apartment to which such shares are allocated, or (2) the holder of such shares (or a member of his family) becomes a bona fide occupant of the apartment. The term "holder of Unsold Shares" wherever used herein shall include a "purchaser of Unsold Shares," such terms being used interchangeably in this lease.
