In the event any building or other improvement not be- longing to the Lessor on the Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire, storm, or other casualty, the Lessee shall, within thirty days after such happening, remove all debris and rubbish resulting therefrom; and if the Lessee fails to do so, the Lessor may enter the Premises and remove such debris and rubbish, and the Lessee agrees to reimburse the Lessor, within thirty days after bill ren- dered, for the expense so incurred.

All buildings, platforms, loading or unloading devices, struc- tures, and/or material or obstruction of any kind erected, main- tained, placed, piled, stacked, or maintained upon the Premises after the commencement of this Lease and any alterations, improve- ments, and/or additions thereto or to buildings, platforms, loading or unloading devices structures located on the Premises prior to the commencement of this Lease shall be constructed, operated, main- tained, repaired, renewed, modified and/or reconstructed by the Lessee in strict conformity with Union Pacific Railroad Company's Standard Minimum Clearances for All New Structures and Facilities Along Industry Tracks, as in effect at the time of the placement, construction, operation, maintenance, repair, renewal, modification or reconstruction.

Lessor shall consider requests of the Lessee to impair clear- ances which are necessitated by the operational requirements of the Lessee, but Lessor shall not be obligated to consent to any impair- ment. Any necessary permission to impair clearances to which the Lessor has consented must be secured by the Lessee at its own expense, in advance of any impairment; and Lessee shall comply promptly and strictly with all requirements or orders issued by appropriate state or other public authority relating to such impairments.

Any knowledge on the part of the Lessor of a violation of the clearance requirements of this Lease, whether such knowledge is actual or implied, shall not constitute a waiver and shall not relieve the Lessee of its obligation to indemnify and defend the Lessor, its officers, agents, and employees, for losses and claims resulting from such violation.

The Lessee hereby releases the Lessor, its officers, servants, and/or employees, from all liability for damage by water to the Premises or to property thereon belonging to or in the custody or control of the Lessee, including buildings and con- tents, regardless of whether such damage be caused or contributed by the position, location, construction or condition of the railroad, roadbed, tracks, bridges, dikes, ditches or other structures of the Lessor. 6 Termination on Default Section 15. It is further agreed that the breach of any covenant, stipulation or condition herein contained to be kept and performed by the Lessee, shall, at the option of the Lessor, forth- with work a termination of this Lease, and all rights of the Lessee hereunder; that no notice of such termination or declaration of for- feiture shall be required, and the Lessor may at once re-enter upon the Premises and repossess itself thereof and remove all persons therefrom or may resort to an action of forcible/unlawful entry and detainer, or any other action to recover the same. A waiver by the Lessor of the breach by the Lessee of any covenant or condi- tion of this Lease shall not impair the right of the Lessor to avail • itself of any subsequent breach thereof.
