Abatement of Rent In the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, as a result of (i) any repair, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord, or which Landlord failed to perform, after the Lease Commencement Date and required by this Lease, which substantially interferes with Tenant’s use of the Premises, or (ii) any failure to provide services, utilities or access to the Premises as required by this Lease (either such set of circumstances as set forth in items (i) or (ii), above, to be known as an “Abatement Event”), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for five (5) consecutive business days after Landlord’s receipt of any such notice (the “Eligibility Period”), then the Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, and Tenant’s obligation to pay for parking (to the extent not utilized by Tenant) shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use for the normal conduct of Tenant’s business, the Premises or a portion thereof; provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, a portion of the Premises, and as result thereof it is commercially impractical for Tenant to use all or a portion of the remaining Premises (i.e., the portion of the Premises that Tenant is actually able to use), and if Tenant does not conduct its business from the remaining Premises or portion thereof, then for such time during which it is impractical for Tenant to conduct its business therein, the Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, and Tenant’s obligation to pay for parking (to the extent not utilized by Tenant) shall also be abated for the remaining Premises (or portion thereof) that Tenant does not use. If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the Premises during such period, the Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, and Tenant’s obligation to pay for parking (to the extent not utilized by Tenant) allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises. To the extent an Abatement Event is caused by an event covered by Articles 11 or 13 of this Lease, then Tenant’s right to xxxxx rent shall be governed by the terms of such Article 11 or 13, as applicable, and the Eligibility Period shall not be applicable thereto. Such right to xxxxx Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy for rent abatement at law or in equity for an Abatement Event. Except as expressly provided in this Section 19.5.2 or elsewhere in this Lease, nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused from paying Rent due hereunder.
Rental Payments The Lessee agrees to pay annual rental for the Premises at a rate per year during the term of this Lease not to exceed One Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,100,000.00). Each such semi-annual installment, payable as hereinafter described, shall be based on the value of that portion of the Premises which is complete and ready for use and occupancy by the Lessee at the time such semi-annual installment is made. The first rental installment shall be due on the later of (i) January 15, 2024; or (ii) the date on which a portion of the Premises is available for use and occupancy by the Lessee. Thereafter, such rental shall be payable in advance in semi‑annual installments on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The last semi‑annual rental payment due before the expiration of this Lease shall be adjusted to provide for rental at the yearly rate so specified from the date such installment is due to the date of the expiration of this Lease. All rentals payable under the terms of this Lease shall be paid by the Lessee to the trustee (the “Trustee”) under the trust indenture (the “Indenture”) securing the bonds to be issued by the Lessor to provide funds for the project on the Premises (such bonds, or bonds issued to refund such bonds, the “Bonds”). All payments so made by the Lessee shall be considered as payments to the Lessor of the rentals payable hereunder. After the sale of the Bonds, the annual rental shall be reduced to the multiple of $1,000 next higher than the principal and interest due in each twelve (12) month period commencing each year on June 30 payable in semi‑annual installments together with an amount sufficient to cover annual trustee fees and other administrative costs but not to exceed Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). In addition, each such reduced semi-annual installment shall be based on the value of the portion of the Premises which is complete and ready for use and occupancy by the Lessee at the time such semi-annual installment is made. Such amount of adjusted rental shall be endorsed on this Lease at the end hereof in substantially the form of Exhibit B attached hereto by the parties hereto as soon as the same can be done after the sale of the Bonds, and such endorsement shall be recorded as an addendum to this Lease. The fixed annual rentals described in this Section 2 (the “Fixed Annual Rentals”) and the additional rentals described in Section 3 (the “Additional Rentals”) shall be payable solely from the budgeted revenues of the Lessee (the “Budgeted Revenues”). The Lessee may pay the Fixed Annual Rentals and the Additional Rentals or any other amounts due hereunder from any other revenues legally available to the Lessee; provided, however, the Lessee shall be under no obligation to pay any Fixed Annual Rentals or Additional Rentals or any other amounts due hereunder from any moneys or properties of the Lessee except the Budgeted Revenues received by the Lessee.
