Licensee shall neither have nor make any claim, and releases County and waives any such claim, against County for any loss <br />or damage to any personal property of Licensee or its employees, agents or contractors, regardless of the cause thereof. <br />LICENSEE IS STRONGLY ADVISED TO OBTAIN AND MAINTAIN AN INSURANCE POLICY INSURING LICENSEE’S PROPERTY AT <br />THE PREMISES AND STUDIOS TO PROTECT LICENSEE’S PROPERTY FROM LOSS OR DAMAGE. <br />Except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct by County, Licensee shall indemnify and hold County harmless from <br />and against any and all claims arising out of (a) Licensee’s use of the Premises and Studios, (b) any activity, work, or other <br />thing done by Licensee in or about the Premises and Studios, or (c) any act or negligence of Licensee, or any officer, agent, <br />employee, contractor, servant, invitee or guest or customer of Licensee; and in each case from and against any and all <br />damages, injuries, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees at all tribunal levels) arising in <br />connection with any such claim or claims as described in (a) through (c) above, or any action brought thereon. Licensee <br />assumes all risk of damage or loss to its property or injury or death to persons in, on, or about the Premises or the Studios, <br />from all causes except those for which the law imposes liability on County regardless of any attempted waiver thereof, and <br />Licensee hereby waives such claims in respect thereof against County. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the <br />expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. <br />Licensee shall at all times during the Term maintain insurance. <br />County and its respective board members, employees, volunteers, instructors, agents, contractors and officers shall not, to <br />the maximum extent permitted by law, be liable for, and the Licensee waives all right of recovery against County and such <br />individuals for any damage or claim with respect to any injury to person or damage to, or loss or destruction of, any <br />property of Licensee, its contractors, employees and invitees due to any act, omission or occurrence in or about the <br />Premises, Studios, or the Eno River Mill complex. <br />11.ACCESS TO PREMISES. County shall have the right, either itself or through its authorized agents, to enter the Premises at all <br />times, with or without notice, to examine the same and to make such repairs, alterations, or improvements, or for any <br />other reason County deems necessary. Licensee, and its agents, employees, invitees, and guests, shall have the right of <br />ingress and egress to the area within and about the Premises and those Studio areas reserved for the common use and <br />enjoyment of all Licensees of the Studios, including, but not limited to, corridors, lobbies, and any break rooms (the <br />“Common Area”). County reserves the right to control the access and use of the Common Area, through the rules and <br />regulations, for the comfort and convenience of all Licensees and users of the Studios, and the right to revoke Licensee’s <br />access privileges upon reasonable notice. <br />12. DEFAULT. If Licensee fails to pay Monthly Fee or other sum of money as provided in this Agreement when due, breaches <br />any other agreement or obligation set forth herein, or fails to comply with County’s rules and regulations regarding the use <br />of the Premises and Common Areas, then Licensee shall be in default hereunder, and County shall have, without further <br />notice, all rights and remedies available to it in law or in equity, including, but not limited to, the rights to terminate or <br />revoke this Agreement and recover any and all damages to which County is entitled, including any costs incurred by County <br />to exclude Licensee (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), any unpaid sums owed to County at the time of termination, <br />plus interest at the maximum legal rate, and any other sums owed to County by Licensee. <br />All rights and remedies of County are cumulative, and the exercise of any one shall not be an election excluding County at <br />any other time from exercise of a different or inconsistent remedy. No waiver by County of any covenant or condition shall <br />be deemed to imply or constitute a further waiver of the same at a later time, and acceptance of the Monthly Fee by <br />County even with knowledge of a default by Licensee does not constitute a waiver of such default. An election by County to <br />terminate this Agreement shall only be deemed to occur upon the express, written election by County to do so. County <br />shall have no obligation to, and Licensee expressly waives County’s obligation to, mitigate its damages arising out of a <br />breach of this Agreement by Licensee. <br />13.PROPERTY OF LICENSEE. Licensee shall timely pay any and all taxes levied or assessed against or upon all of Licensee’s <br />personal property located at Premises and Studios (“Licensee Property”). Prior to the end of the Term, Licensee may <br />remove all Licensee Property that it has placed at the Premises provided Licensee repairs all damages caused by such <br />removal. If Licensee does not remove Licensee Property from the Premises within 5 days after expiration or termination (for <br />whatever cause) of this Agreement, such property (other than that containing radioactive, biologically active or other <br />hazardous substances or materials) shall be deemed conclusively abandoned by Licensee, and County may dispose of the <br />same in whatever manner County may elect. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: C201D15E-9B3F-4B04-8005-398B13854D4F
