or delay by a party to exercise any right it may have by reason of the default of the other party
<br />shall operate as a waiver of default or modification of this Agreement or shall prevent the exercise
<br />of right by the first party while the other party continues to be in default.
<br />20. Force Maieure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
<br />Agreement, in the event either party hereto shall be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the
<br />performance of any act required under this Agreement by reason of strikes, lockouts, labor
<br />troubles, inability to procure materials, failure of power, restrictive governmental regulations or
<br />law, riots, insurrection, war, unusually inclement weather, terrorists acts, a global or national health
<br />emergency, pandemic, or epidemic (including the impact and effects of any related lock -down,
<br />quarantine, or stay-at-home orders), or other reason of a like nature not the fault of the party
<br />delayed in performing work or doing acts required under the terms of this Agreement (collectively,
<br />"Force Ma,jeure"), then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of the delay, and
<br />the period of the performance of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the
<br />period of such delay.
<br />21. Estoppel. Each of Grantor and Grantee (as applicable, a "Responding Owner")
<br />hereby covenants that within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice requesting an estoppel
<br />certificate from the other party (but not more than twice in any calendar year), the Responding
<br />Owner will issue to the requesting party or to any prospective mortgagee, purchaser or tenant of
<br />such party, an estoppel certificate stating, to the Responding Owner's actual knowledge: (a)
<br />whether any default exists under this Agreement (and if there is any such default, then stating the
<br />nature thereof); (b) whether this Agreement has been assigned, modified or amended in any way
<br />(and if it has, then stating the nature thereof); (c) whether this Agreement is in full force and effect
<br />as of the date of the estoppel certificate; and (d) such other matters as the requesting party may
<br />reasonably request. Failure by a Responding Owner to so execute and provide such estoppel
<br />certificate within the specified period of time shall be deemed an admission on the Responding
<br />Owner's part that the requesting party is current and not in default in the performance of its
<br />obligations under this Agreement. Any such estoppel certificate may be relied upon by transferees,
<br />tenants, lenders and any other similar parties of Grantor or Grantee.

<br />on a Saturday, Sunday, or federal holiday, the date shall be extended to the immediately following
