Lease Still in Effect. --------------------- Except as modified hereby, all terms and conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect until the Effective Termination Date, after which date neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further obligations to each other under the Lease, except for any provisions which by their terms survive the expiration or prior termination of the Lease Term. 9.
