Actions Permitted without Express Authority The Custodian may in its discretion, without express authority from the applicable Fund on behalf of each applicable Portfolio:
1) Make payments to itself or others for minor expenses of handling securities or other similar items relating to its duties under this Agreement; provided that all such payments shall be accounted for to the Fund on behalf of the Portfolio;
2) Surrender securities in temporary form for securities in definitive form;
3) Endorse for collection, in the name of the Portfolio, checks, drafts and other negotiable instruments; and
4) In general, attend to all non-discretionary details in connection with the sale, exchange, substitution, purchase, transfer and other dealings with the securities and property of the Portfolio except as otherwise directed by the applicable Board.
Landlord’s Consent to Alterations Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion with respect to any Alterations which may adversely affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment in more than a de minimis manner (e.g., the mere tying into Systems shall not be subject to the sole discretion standard) or which can be seen from outside the Building. Tenant shall pay (i) for Alterations performed by Tenant, Landlord’s reasonable third-party costs incurred in connection with reviewing such Alterations, and (ii) for Alterations for which Tenant has engaged Landlord to supervise and Landlord’s contractors to perform, a supervision fee of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the total cost of such Alteration (for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing supervisory fee shall not be due or payable in connection with the Tenant Improvements and the Vivarium improvements and no supervisory fee shall be due or payable in connection with any capital improvements performed by Landlord). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Landlord approval shall be required (provided advance notice shall be provided to Landlord) for (a) installation, removal or realignment of furniture systems not involving any modifications to the structure or connections (other than by ordinary plugs or jacks) to the Systems, (b) Alterations which could not reasonably be expected to affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment and which cost less than $150,000 for any one (1) job and no more than $300,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year during the Lease Term (excluding any costs for painting, carpeting, and similar purely cosmetic work), (c) Alterations which do not require a building permit, and (d) merely cosmetic work (such as painting and carpeting). The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8.
Landlord’s Consent Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:
14.2.1 The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project;
14.2.2 The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof;
14.2.3 The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer on the date consent is requested; or
14.2.4 The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease. If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under Section 14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord’s consent, but not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14 (including Landlord’s right of recapture, if any, under Section 14.4 of this Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be a suit for contract damages (other than damages for injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring) or declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee.
Common Areas - Changes Lessor shall have the right, in Lessor's sole discretion, from time to time:
(a) To make changes to the Common Areas, including, without limitation, changes in the location, size, shape and number of driveways, entrances, parking spaces, parking areas, loading and unloading areas, ingress, egress, direction of traffic, landscaped areas, walkways and utility raceways;
(b) To close temporarily any of the Common Areas for maintenance purposes so long as reasonable access to the Premises remains available;
(c) To designate other land outside the boundaries of the Industrial Center to be a part of the Common Areas;
(d) To add additional buildings and improvements to the Common Areas;
(e) To use the Common Areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs or alterations to the Industrial Center, or any portion thereof; and
(f) To do and perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to or with respect to the Common Areas and Industrial Center as Lessor may, in the exercise of sound business judgment, deem to be appropriate.
Landlord’s Consent Required Except for a Permitted Transfer, as defined below, Tenant shall not transfer any part of the Premises or of its interest in this Lease to any other entity, whether by sale, assignment, mortgage, sublease, license, transfer, operation of law (including, without limitation by merger, consolidation, sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of Tenant, or otherwise) or act of Tenant (each a “Transfer” ) without Landlord’s prior written consent as provided in Section 13.02 below. Consent to one Transfer does not imply consent to any other Transfer or waive the consent requirement. Any attempted Transfer without consent shall be void at the election of Landlord. Any entity to which a Transfer is made is a “Transferee.” The following transactions (any of them, a “Permitted Transfer”) shall not require the consent of Landlord provided that Landlord shall receive prior notice thereof plus reasonable evidence upon closing that the transaction is in fact one of the following (and provided further that the proposed Transfer complies with all other provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation, this Article 13 (other than the first paragraph of this Section 13.01), does not alter Landlord’s rights under this Lease, and does not impose any additional obligation on Landlord):
(a) Any Transfer to an entity acquiring all or substantially all of the stock or assets of Tenant, whether by way of merger, consolidation, acquisition or otherwise (any such entity, a “Successor Entity”), so long as the resulting tenant under the Lease has a creditworthiness at least equal to or greater than Tenant’s as of the date of this Lease or at the time of proposed Transfer, whichever is greater; or
(b) Any Transfer to an entity directly or indirectly controlled, controlling, or under common control with Tenant (any such entity, a “Related Entity”) so long as in the case of an assignment either the original Tenant or the assignee has a creditworthiness at least equal to or greater than Tenant’s as of the date of this Lease or at the time of proposed Transfer, whichever is greater. For purposes of this clause (b), “control” shall mean possession of more than 50 percent ownership of the shares of beneficial interest of the entity in question together with the power to control and manage the affairs thereof either directly or by election of directors and/or officers. For purposes of this Section 13.01, “substantially all” of Tenant’s assets shall include without limitation the transfer of assets having a value of more than 75% of the total value, as opposed to number, of Tenant’s assets other than (i) by license of the right to use pharmaceutical products developed by Tenant in the ordinary course of Tenant’s business, or (ii) in an arm’s length transaction in which Tenant obtains market value for such assets and the consideration paid to Tenant is retained by Tenant and available to pay amounts due under the Lease as they become due, and/or otherwise used by Tenant in the ordinary course of business (i.e., such consideration is not distributed to stockholders or otherwise transferred to another party). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, so long as Tenant’s shares are traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange, any sale of Tenant’s shares shall not be deemed a Transfer subject to the provisions of this Article 13. Tenant acknowledges that the covenants contained in this Section 13.01 are material to the transaction contained herein and that Landlord shall have, in addition to any other rights and remedies available under this Lease or at law, the right to seek injunctive relief and/or specific performance in order to enforce such covenants.
Alterations Except as provided in the immediately preceding subparagraph, and except for non-structural and non-Building system alterations not in excess of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) in any Lease Year, Tenant shall make no alterations or additions to the Premises (“Alterations”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, and then only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord in writing and upon the approval by Landlord in writing of fully detailed and dimensioned plans and specifications pertaining to the Alterations in question, to be prepared and submitted by Tenant, at its sole cost and expense. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain all necessary approvals and permits pertaining to any Alterations approved by Landlord. If Landlord, in approving any Alterations, specifies a reasonable commencement date therefor, Tenant shall not commence any work with respect to such Alterations prior to such date. Tenant hereby indemnifies, defends and agrees to hold Landlord free and harmless from all liens and claims of lien, and all other liability, claims and demands arising out of any work done or material supplied to the Premises by or at the request of Tenant in connection with any Alterations. If permitted Alterations are made, they shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and shall be and become the property of Landlord, except that Landlord may, provided notice is given to Tenant at the time Landlord approves such Alteration, require Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to remove all partitions, counters, railings and other Alterations installed by Tenant, and to repair any damages to the Premises caused by such removal upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. If Landlord’s approval is not required in connection with an Alteration, Landlord may require removal of such Alteration, as aforesaid, at any time within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s written request for a determination by Landlord as to whether such Alteration shall be removed upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. Any and all costs attributable to or related to the applicable building codes of the city in which the Building is located (or any other authority having jurisdiction over the Building) arising from Tenant’s plans, specifications, improvements, alterations or otherwise shall be paid by Tenant at its sole cost and expense. With regard to repairs, Alterations or any other work arising from or related to this Article 5, Landlord shall be entitled to receive an administrative fee of two percent (2%). The construction of initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant work letter, attached hereto as Exhibit C, and not the terms of this Article 5.
Tenant’s Alterations Tenant shall not make any Alterations, including, without limitation, Tenant’s installation and construction of the Premises to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy as well as fixturing, cabling and computer installations in connection therewith (collectively, “Tenant’s initial Installations”). without Landlord’s prior written consent in each instance; provided, however, that Tenant may make the following Alterations to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent (collectively, “Permitted Alterations”), (x) decorations consisting of furniture, painting, wall coverings and floor coverings in the Premises subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease (“Decorative Alterations”), and (y) other Alterations that satisfy the Alterations Criteria (as hereinafter defined), and which (together with any other Alterations performed by Tenant during the calendar year in which such other Alterations were performed) cost, in the aggregate, less than $30,000.00; provided, further, that Tenant shall provide Landlord with at least ten (10) (Business Days’ prior written notice prior to making any Permitted Alterations, which notice shall include (except in the case of Decorative Alterations) a set of plans and specifications for such Permitted Alterations, as described in Section 4.2(a) below. Landlord’s consent to Tenant’s Alterations shall be granted or denied in Landlord’s sole discretion; provided, however, that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to Tenant’s Initial Alterations to adapt the Premises for the Permitted Use provided that such Alterations (i) are non-structural and do not affect the Building Systems or services, or violate the design or engineering standards or criteria of Landlord for the Building, (ii) are performed only by contractors or mechanics approved in writing by Landlord, (iii) affect only the Premises and are not visible from outside of the Premises, (iv) do not adversely affect any service furnished by Landlord to Tenant or to any other tenant of the Building or the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, (v) do not reduce the value or utility of the Building or the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, (vi) do not violate any Legal Requirements or the Building Rules and Regulations, or cause the Premises or the Building or the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx to be non-compliant with any Legal Requirements, (vii) do not adversely affect any Common Areas or other tenant of the Building or the 900 North Building, or the premises of any such other tenant, and (viii) do not conflict with or violate any rules and regulations of Landlord’s insurance carrier (collectively, the “Alterations Criteria”). Tenant shall provide Landlord with a final complete set of Tenant’s Plans (defined below) for Tenant’s Initial Alterations, which Tenant shall cause to be prepared at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, within forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date. Landlord shall notify Tenant within five (5) Business Days after Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Plans, (i) whether Landlord consents or withholds its consent thereto, and (ii) if Landlord withholds its consent, the reason or reasons therefor. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant of its consent or withholding of consent within such five (5) Business Day period, and (x) Landlord further fails to notify Tenant of its consent or withholding of consent within five (5) Business Days after delivery (or attempted delivery) of a second written request by Tenant to Landlord, (y) Tenant has evidence that Landlord received or refused delivery of such second notice (in the form of a return receipt or proof of refusal of delivery), and (z) such second notice stated on its face that refusal to timely respond constitutes a “deemed consent”, then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to Tenant’s Plans as submitted. If Landlord’s approval of a contractor is required, Landlord shall notify Tenant within five (5) Business Days after Tenant’s written request whether Landlord consents or withholds its consent to any contractor proposed by Tenant to perform Tenant’s Initial Alterations. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant of its consent or withholding of consent within such five (5) Business Day period, and Tenant has evidence that Landlord received the notice requesting such consent (in the form of a return receipt or proof of refusal of delivery), then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to the contractor proposed by Tenant to perform such Tenant’s Alteration.
No Alterations No alterations or additions may be made to the premises nor may any fixtures be installed or placards, decorations or other articles be attached in any way to any part of the premises without the prior written approval of the Village Hall Secretary. Any alteration, fixture or fitting or attachment so approved shall at the discretion of the Village Hall remain in the premises at the end of the hiring. It will become the property of the Village Hall unless removed by the Hirer who must make good to the satisfaction of the Village Hall any damage caused to the premises by such removal.
ALTERATIONS & IMPROVEMENTS Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements or do any type of construction to the Property without first obtaining Landlord's written consent. Unless prior written agreement is reached between Tenant and Landlord, any such alterations, additions, improvements or construction shall become part of the Property and shall remain at the expiration of Tenant's Lease term. If Landlord approves of alterations, additions, improvements or construction in writing and Tenant intends to use contractors to undertake such work, the contractors must first be approved in writing by Landlord. Tenant must also place any funds to cover the amount of any alterations, additions, improvements or construction in an escrow account approved by Landlord before the commencement of the work. Landlord shall designate the times and manner of the work being done, exclusively.
Removal of Alterations If Tenant fails to remove by the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease all of its personal property, or any Alterations identified by Landlord for removal, Landlord may, at its option, treat such failure as a hold-over pursuant to Subparagraph 11(b) above, and/or Landlord may (without liability to Tenant for loss thereof) treat such personal property and/or Alterations as abandoned and, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and in addition to Landlord's other rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity: (a) remove and store such items; and/or (b) upon ten (10) days prior notice to Tenant, sell, discard or otherwise dispose of all or any such items at private or public sale for such price as Landlord may obtain or by other commercially reasonable means. Tenant shall be liable for all costs of disposition of Tenant's abandoned property and Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant with respect to any such abandoned property. Landlord agrees to apply the proceeds of any sale of any such property to any amounts due to Landlord under this Lease from Tenant (including Landlord's attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in the removal, storage and/or sale of such items), with any remainder to be paid to Tenant.
