If Customer fails to pay lease fee within 10 days after being due, Lessor may at its option terminate this lease and demand return of the instrument. If the instrument is not returned in accordance with the notice of non renewal or demand, Customer shall be deemed in default, and in addition to any other amounts owing hereunder, shall be liable to Lessor for each calendar month (or part thereof) which elapses between the end of the lease period and the return of the instrument.
