Landlord’s Options Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to Tenant within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s receipt of a Transfer Notice accompanied by the other information described in Section 12.1, to: (a) permit Tenant to Transfer the Premises; or (b) disapprove (provided, Landlord’s disapproval must be in accordance with Section 12.1 hereof) the Tenant’s Transfer of the Premises and to continue the Lease in full force and effect as to the entire Premises; or (c) in the event of (i) a proposed assignment of the Lease or (ii) a sublease of more than 50% of the Premises (taking into account all sublets in the aggregate) for all or substantially all of the balance of the Term, terminate the Lease as of the proposed effective date of the Transfer set forth in Tenant’s Transfer Notice (a “Recapture”); provided, however, that if Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s intention to Recapture the Premises, Tenant may elect to withdraw its Transfer Notice by written notice of such election delivered to Landlord within ten (10) business days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Recapture notice. If Landlord approves of the proposed Transfer pursuant to Section 12.1 above, Tenant may enter into the proposed Transfer with such proposed Transferee subject to the following conditions: (i) the Transfer shall be on the same terms set forth in the Transfer Notice; and (ii) no Transfer shall be valid and no Transferee shall take possession of the Premises until an executed counterpart of the assignment, sublease or other instrument effecting the Transfer (in the form approved by Landlord) has been delivered to Landlord pursuant to which the Transferee shall expressly assume all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease applicable to that portion of the Premises then being transferred (provided that, for a subtenant, the rental obligations shall be governed by the terms of the applicable sublease). If Landlord exercises its option to terminate this Lease (or in the case of a partial sublet to release Tenant with respect to a portion of the Premises) as provided above, Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises on the proposed effective date of the Transfer set forth in Tenant’s Transfer Notice, and thereafter neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further liability with respect thereto, except with respect to those matters that expressly survive the termination of the Lease.
Subleased Premises Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the conditions set forth herein, the Subleased Premises.
LEASE ALTERATIONS The Owner hereby gives power to the Agent to initiate, sign, renew, modify, or cancel rental agreements and leases for the Property, or any part thereof and collect and give receipts for rents, other fees, charges, and security deposits.
Prime Lease Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the Prime Lease is terminated for any reason whatsoever, this Sublease shall terminate on the date that the Prime Lease is terminated. Upon any such termination of the Prime Lease for any reasons other than Subtenant’s breach or default hereunder, or Sublandlord’s default under the Prime Lease occasioned by Subtenant’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder, all Rent due and owing hereunder shall be pro-rated, where applicable, as of the date of such termination, and paid to Sublandlord, and thereafter in the event of a termination of the Prime Lease which is not due to Subtenant’s breach or default under this Sublease and/or Sublandlord’s default under the Prime Lease which is due to Subtenant’s breach or default under this Sublease, then, Sublandlord shall have no further obligation or liability to Subtenant arising from, through, or under this Sublease except as more particularly set forth herein, and upon Subtenant’s return of possession of the Premises to Sublandlord and Subtenant’s compliance with its obligations hereunder accruing on and/or before the date of such termination, Subtenant shall have no obligation or liability to Sublandlord accruing after the date of such termination relating to this Sublease, except as more particularly set forth herein.
Landlord’s Election Tenant’s request for consent to any Transfer shall he accompanied by a written statement setting forth the details of the proposed Transfer, including the name, business and financial condition of the prospective Transferee, financial details of the proposed Transfer (e.g., the term and the rent and security deposit payable), and any other related information that Landlord may reasonably require. Landlord shall have the right: (a) to withhold consent to the Transfer, if reasonable, (b) to grant consent, (c) to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises affected by any proposed Transfer, in which event Landlord may enter into a lease directly with the proposed Transferee, or (d) to consent on the condition that Landlord be paid, as Additional Rent hereunder, fifty percent (50%) of all subrent or other consideration to be paid to Tenant under the terms of the Transfer in excess of the total rent due hereunder (including, if such Transfer is an assignment or if such Transfer is to occur directly or indirectly in connection with the sale of any assets of Tenant, fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the consideration attributable to the Transfer of the Lease, as reasonably determined by Landlord). The grounds on which Landlord may reasonably withhold its consent to any requested Transfer include, without limitation, that: (i) the proposed Transferee’s contemplated use of the Premises following the proposed Transfer is reasonably similar to the use of the Premises permitted hereunder, (ii) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, the proposed Transferee lacks sufficient business reputation or experience to operate a successful business of the type and quality permitted under this Lease, (iii) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, the proposed Transferee lacks sufficient net worth, working capital, anticipated cash flow and other indications of financial strength to meet all of its obligations under this Lease, (iv) the proposed Transfer would breach any covenant of Landlord respecting a radius restriction, location, use or exclusivity in any other lease, financing agreement, or other agreement relating to the Property, and (v) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, the possibility of a release of Hazardous Materials is materially increased as a result of the Transfer or if Landlord does not receive sufficient assurances that the proposed Transferee has the experience and financial ability to remedy a violation of Hazardous Materials and to fulfill its obligations under Articles 13 and 14. Landlord need only respond to any request by Tenant hereunder within a reasonable time of not less than ten (10) business days alter receipt of all information and other submission required in connection with such request.
Alterations and Tenant’s Property Any alterations, additions, or improvements made to the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant, including additional locks or bolts of any kind or nature upon any doors or windows in the Premises, but excluding installation, removal or realignment of furniture systems (other than removal of furniture systems owned or paid for by Landlord) not involving any modifications to the structure or connections (other than by ordinary plugs or jacks) to Building Systems (as defined in Section 13) (“Alterations”) shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, which may be given or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion if any such Alteration affects the structure or Building Systems and shall not be otherwise unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant may construct nonstructural cosmetic Alterations in the Premises without Landlord’s prior approval if the aggregate cost of all such work in any 12 month period does not exceed $50,000 (a “Notice-Only Alteration”), provided Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of such intended Notice-Only Alteration, and such notice shall be accompanied by plans, specifications, work contracts and such other information concerning the nature and cost of the Notice-Only Alteration as may be reasonably requested by Landlord, which notice and accompanying materials shall be delivered to Landlord not less than 15 business days in advance of any proposed construction. If Landlord approves any Alterations, Landlord may impose such conditions on Tenant in connection with the commencement, performance and completion of such Alterations as Landlord may deem appropriate in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Any request for approval shall be in writing, delivered not less than 15 business days in advance of any proposed construction, and accompanied by plans, specifications, bid proposals, work contracts and such other information concerning the nature and cost of the alterations as may be reasonably requested by Landlord, including the identities and mailing addresses of all persons performing work or supplying materials. Landlord’s right to review plans and specifications and to monitor construction shall be solely for its own benefit, and Landlord shall have no duty to ensure that such plans and specifications or construction comply with applicable Legal Requirements. Tenant shall cause, at its sole cost and expense, all Alterations to comply with insurance requirements and with Legal Requirements and shall implement at its sole cost and expense any alteration or modification required by Legal Requirements as a result of any Alterations. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, on demand an amount equal to 5% of all charges incurred by Tenant or its contractors or agents in connection with any Alteration to cover Landlord’s overhead and expenses for plan review, coordination, scheduling and supervision. Before Tenant begins any Alteration, Landlord may post on and about the Premises notices of non-responsibility pursuant to applicable law. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for, and indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from, any expense incurred by Landlord by reason of faulty work done by Tenant or its contractors, delays caused by such work, or inadequate cleanup. Tenant shall furnish security or make other arrangements satisfactory to Landlord to assure payment for the completion of all Alterations work free and clear of liens, and shall provide (and cause each contractor or subcontractor to provide) certificates of insurance for workers’ compensation and other coverage in amounts and from an insurance company satisfactory to Landlord protecting Landlord against liability for personal injury or property damage during construction. Upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord: (i) sworn statements setting forth the names of all contractors and subcontractors who did the work and final lien waivers from all such contractors and subcontractors; and (ii) “as built” plans for any such Alteration. Except for Removable Installations (as hereinafter defined), all Installations (as hereinafter defined) shall be and shall remain the property of Landlord during the Term and following the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, shall not be removed by Tenant at any time during the Term, and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may, at the time its approval of any such Installation is requested, or at the time it receives notice of a Notice-Only Alteration, notify Tenant that Landlord requires that Tenant remove such Installation upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, in which event Tenant shall remove such Installation in accordance with the immediately succeeding sentence. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall remove (i) all wires, cables or similar equipment which Tenant has installed in the Premises or in the risers or plenums of the Building, (ii) any Installations for which Landlord has given Tenant notice of removal in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and (iii) all of Tenant’s Property (as hereinafter defined), and Tenant shall restore and repair any damage caused by or occasioned as a result of such removal, including, without limitation, capping off all such connections behind the walls of the Premises and repairing any holes. During any restoration period beyond the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall pay Rent to Landlord as provided herein as if said space were otherwise occupied by Tenant. If Landlord is requested by Tenant or any lender, lessor or other person or entity claiming an interest in any of Tenant’s Property to waive any lien Landlord may have against any of Tenant’s Property, and Landlord consents to such waiver, then Landlord shall be entitled to be paid as administrative rent a fee of $1,000 per occurrence for its time and effort in preparing and negotiating such a waiver of lien.
LANDLORD The covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord are binding on Landlord, its successors, and assigns only during their respective period of ownership of an interest in the Building. In the event of any transfer or transfers of such title to the Building, Landlord (and, in the case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be concurrently freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, without any further instrument or agreement, of all liability with respect to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed.
HOLDOVER TENANCY Unless this Sublease has been extended by mutual written agreement of the parties, there will be no holding over past the Term under the terms of this Sublease under any circumstances. If it becomes necessary to commence legal action to remove Subtenant from the Premises, the prevailing Party will be entitled to attorney’s fees and costs in addition to damages.
Landlord’s Property All Alterations, improvements, fixtures, equipment and/or appurtenances which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises, from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become the property of Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant prior to the end of the Lease Term, or given following any earlier termination of this Lease, require Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to remove any Alterations or improvements and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to their condition existing prior to the installation of such Alterations or improvements or, at Landlord’s election, to a building standard tenant improved condition as determined by Landlord; provided; however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, upon request by Tenant at the time of Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent to any Alteration or improvement, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the applicable Alteration or improvement will be required to be removed pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.5. If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of any Alterations or improvements in the Premises and return the affected portion of the Premises to their condition existing prior to the installation of such Alterations or improvements or, if elected by Landlord, to a building standard tenant improved condition as determined by Landlord, prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, then Rent shall continue to accrue under this Lease in accordance with Article 16, below, after the end of the Lease Term until such work shall be completed, and Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform such work and to charge the cost thereof to Tenant. Tenant hereby protects, defends, indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from any liability, cost, obligation, expense or claim of lien, including but not limited to, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, in any manner relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any such Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on or about the Premises, which obligations of Tenant shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Landlord’s Entry Landlord and its authorized representatives may at all reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to Tenant enter the Premises to: (a) inspect the Premises; (b) exercise and perform Landlord's rights and obligations under this Lease; (c) post notices of non-responsibility or other protective notices available under the Laws; (d) show the Premises to current or prospective mortgagees, or to prospective purchasers of the Property; or (e) during the last 12 months of the Term, show the Premises to prospective tenants. Landlord, in the event of any emergency, may enter the Premises at any time without notice to Tenant. If Landlord receives prior written notification from Tenant that specified areas within the Premises contain confidential materials, then Landlord shall not enter such portions of the Premises unless accompanied by a representative of Tenant except (i) in case of an emergency, or (ii) if Tenant authorizes Landlord to enter such portions of the Premises without accompaniment of Tenant's representative. Landlord's entry into the Premises is not to be construed as a forcible or unlawful entry into, or detainer of, the Premises or as an eviction of Tenant from all or any part of the Premises. Subject to Section 9.3 below, Tenant will also permit Landlord (or its designees) to erect, install, use, maintain, replace and repair pipes, cables, conduits, plumbing and vents, and telephone, electric and other wires or other items, in, to and through the Premises if Landlord reasonably determines that such activities are necessary for properly operating and maintaining the Building.
