    1. Substantial Taking.
      If Lessee determines the taking to be a substantial taking, Lessee shall give written notice to that effect to Lessor within sixty (60) days after Lessee receives notice of intended taking. If Lessee does not so notify Lessor. the taking shall be deemed a partial taking. If Lessee gives such notice and Lessor gives Lessee notice disputing Lessee's contention within thirty (30) days following receipt of Lessee's notice, the dispute shall be promptly determinded by arbitration. If Lessor gives no such notice, the taking shall be treated as a substantial taking. A substantial taking shall be treated as a total taking if (1) Lessee delivers possession to Lessor within thirty (30) days after the arbitrator's determination that the taking was a substantial taking, or, if the matter is not submitted to arbitration, within one-hundred-twenty (120) days after Lessee receives notice of intended taking, and (2) Lessee Is not in default under the Lease and has complied with all its provisions concerning apportionment of the award. If these conditions are not met, the taking shall be treated as a partial taking.
    2. Early Delivery of Possession.
      Lessee may continue to occupy the Property and improvements until the condemning authority takes physical possession. However, at any time following notice of intended total taking, or within the time limit specified tor delivering possession In the provision on substantial taking, Lessee may elect to deliver possession of the Property to Lessor before the actual taking. The election shall be made by notice declaring the election and convenanting to pay all rents required under this Lease to the date of taking. Lessee's right to apportionment of or compensation from the award shall then accrue as of the date that Lessee goes out of possession.

      In the event the Property, or any part thereof, is condemned, Lessor shall be entitled to and shall receive that portion of any award made with respect to the Property, and Lessee shall be entitled to that portion of any such award which is attributable to the value of the improvements which have been constructed or installed on the Property by Lessee, if any, which are condemned as part of the real property. In no event shall the amount payable to Lessee exceed the appraisal of the condemning authority or judgment, if any, with respect to the amount of any such award allocable to such improvements, and in no event shall said amount be less than the amount of any indebtedness secured by a lender's first deed of trust. In the absence of such appraisal or agreement between Lessor and Lessee as to such amounts, each shall appoint an appraiser and the two shall select a third appraiser and all three shall appraise the Property. The average of the three appraisals shall constitute the value of Lessee's improvements.

      1. Effect on Rant, Terms.
        On a partial taking, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect covering the portion of the Property not taken, except that the net rent shall be reduced in the same ratio as the percentage of the area of the ground taken bears to total area of the Property.
