which  arise  by  virtue  of acts or  omissions  occurring
thereunder, on or after the Effective Date.
   
    Assignor  shall  indemnify and hold Assignee  harmless
from  any and all liabilities, claims, obligations, losses
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees arising

Lot  2 on behalf of Assignee and at Assignee's expense for
correction of such latent defects (If the remedy  of  such
matters   shall  take  beyond  the  aforementioned   date,
Assignor agrees to undertake the remedy until completion).
Assignor  shall indemnify and hold Assignee harmless  from
any  and  all liabilities, claims, obligations  (including
reasonable  attorney's fees for the  enforcement  of  this
provision to the extent actually incurred) resulting  from
Assignor's  failure to fulfill its obligations under  this
paragraph.
   
    3.   Assignor shall direct the Tenant and any successor
tenant under the Lease to pay to Assignee the Rent and all
other monetary obligations due or to become due under  the

of  Assignor,  Assignee  and the  heirs,  successors  and
assigns of each such party.

counterparts, each of which shall be effective  only  upon
delivery  and thereafter shall be deemed an original,  and
all  of  which  shall  be taken to be  one  and  the  same
