J. TERMINATION. The Buyer may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time by providing written notice via registered or certified mail to the Seller.

K. CANCEL OR SUSPEND. The Seller and the US Government reserve the right to cancel or suspend all or part of its performance under this contract in the event that such performance is deemed by the Department of Defense, the Department of the Army, or other Defense Command Agency (e.g. US Army Page 3 Direct Sales Contract W911RQ-14-C-DS02 Tank-automotive and Armaments Command), to interfere, for any reason, with the performance of work by the Seller on behalf of the Department of Defense in support of one of its contracts, or for any reason is determined to not be in the best interest of the United States. The fight to cancel or suspend performance hereunder shall be in addition to the right reserved by the US Government to cancel or suspend performance under this contract for unusual and compelling circumstances when the national interest of the United States so requires. The Buyer agrees that the seller shall not become liable to the Buyer as a result of such cancellation or suspension. When such a cancellation or suspension occurs, the Seller will return to the Buyer any advanced incremental funding received but not yet expended or incurred against the contract.

In furtherance of that goal, the parties agree to take steps to establish a cooperative process for evaluating progress and solving problems. The parties recognize that the development of a cooperative and structured team process for dealing with unexpected problems is a useful mechanism for establishing open communication and dispute prevention. The parties agree that the settlement of a dispute through a negotiated settlement or through alternate dispute resolution (ADR) methods to avoid litigation will increase the opportunity for relatively inexpensive and expeditious resolution of issues in controversy. The parties further agree that when both parties recognize the existence of an issue in controversy that cannot be resolved by a timely negotiated settlement, the parties will elect to participate in an ADR process by agreeing to alternate procedures and processes to be used in lieu of formal litigation which includes participation by officials, or their Page 4 Direct Sales Contract W911RQ-14-C-DS02 representatives, of both parties that have the authority to resolve the issue in controversy. N. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Both parties recognize their responsibility to comply with all applicable federal laws, executive orders, and rules and regulations applicable to a Federal Installation during the performance of this Contract.

Landlord may enter and take possession of the Premises by self -help, by picking or changing locks if necessary, and may lock out Tenant or any other person who may be occupying the Premises, until the default is cured, without being liable for damages. 12. Default/Waiver/Mitigation. It is not a waiver of default if the nondefaulting party fails to declare immediately a default or delays in taking any action. Pursuit of any remedies set forth in this lease does not preclude pursuit of other remedies in this lease or provided by law. Landlord and Tenant have a duty to mitigate damages. Lease Agreement-TAC-C-v3-121713 Page 7 of 11 13. Security-Ad Valorem Tax Deposit. a. If Tenant defaults, Landlord may use the security deposit to pay arrears of rent, to repair any damage or injury, or to pay any expense or liability incurred by Landlord as a result of the default. It is specifically provided however that Tenant shall not be entitled to any portion of the Security Deposit as a refund unless Tenant gives Landlord sixty (60) days notice of surrendering the premises. b. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the Ad Valorem Tax Deposit. Said deposit shall not accrue interest. Landlord may upon expiration or termination of this Lease use the deposit to pay the actually due, or hold for payment of estimated ad valorem taxes due or to become due upon the leased premises and for which Tenant is responsible under the Terms of this Lease. Provided Tenant pays all ad valorem taxes for which Tenant is responsible under this Lease, the deposit shall be refunded to Tenant at the address Tenant has given to Landlord for this specific purpose. If taxes have not been assessed and levied for the year in which this Lease expires or is terminated, Landlord may hold the deposit until said taxes have been determined; and, if Tenant does not pay said taxes at least 30 days before delinquency, Landlord may apply the deposit to the taxes due. Nothing in this subsection shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay ad valorem taxes upon the leased premises prior to delinquency as provided elsewhere in this Lease. 14. Holdover. If Tenant does not vacate the Premises following termination of this lease, Tenant shall be a tenant at will and shall vacate the Premises on receipt of notice from Landlord.
