Section 19. BREACH AND DEFAULT - In the fulfillment of all obligations wherein the payment of money is involved, including but not limited to the rentals, taxes, assessments, reimbursement, fees, cost and other charges hereinbefore mentioned, the LESSEE is hereby given a grace period of Sixty (60) days from date of default before the LESSOR can exercise the right to recover against the LESSEE and/or exercise its right to rescind this Contract.

In the fulfillment of the obligations contained in this Contract involving the performance of an act or an obligation to do, the LESSEE may cure or remedy any breach or failure to comply within a cure period of thirty (30) days from written notice of such breach.
