The Parties agree that to the extent required by Applicable Law, the standards to be used by a Party for isolating and clearing any disconnections and/or other outages or troubles shall be at parity with standards used by such Party with respect to itself, any subsidiary, affiliate or third party.
Maintenance, Alteration and Repair (a) Resident is responsible for and agrees to take good care of the premises, fixtures and all common areas. Resident may not remove any of Owner’s property and will not perform any repairs, upgrades, painting, wallpapering, electric changes or other alterations of the premises without prior written consent from Owner. Resident will be responsible for damage from waste stoppages caused by foreign or improper objects or improper use in lines serving bathrooms, damage to fixtures, appliances, doors, windows, screens, damage from water faucets left on or from doors left open, and repairs or replacements to alarm devices necessitated by misuse or damage by Resident and/or guests.

(b) In the case of a malfunction of any utilities or damage by fire, water or similar cause, or any water leak, suspected mold or microbial growth, electrical problem, broken glass, broken lock or any other condition that Resident reasonably believes poses a hazard to health and safety, Resident must promptly notify Owner in writing. Owner will act with reasonable time and diligence in making repairs and reconnections; Resident may not withhold or reduce payment of rent or other charges during such time. Maintenance and repair requested by Resident will generally be performed between 8am and 8pm, unless the work is considered an emergency, in which case work may take place at any time. Owner may temporarily disconnect equipment or utilities to avoid property damage and/or to perform repairs requiring such interruption, in Owner’s sole discretion. Owner will not be liable for any inconvenience, discomfort, disruption or interference with Resident use of the premises because of ongoing repairs, alterations or improvements to the Property or any apartment.

A written maintenance report requesting assistance in changing these items may be submitted for maintenance staff assistance, with extra charges payable by Resident as applicable per Owner’s published rates. From time to time, maintenance staff may enter the assigned apartment with or without notice to inspect and change furnace filters and to provide pest control.

Lessee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substance to be spilled or released in, on, under or about the Premises (including through the plumbing or sanitary sewer system) and shall promptly, at Lessee’s expense, take all investigatory and/ore remedial action reasonably recommended, whether or not formally ordered or required, for the cleanup of any contamination of, and for the maintenance, security and/or monitoring of, the Premises, the elements surrounding same, or neighboring properties that was caused or materially contributed to by Lessee, or pertaining to or involving any Hazardous Substance and/or storage tank brought onto the premises by or for lessee or under its control. Lessee, in keeping the Premises in good order, condition and repair, shall exercise and perform good maintenance practices. Lessee’s obligations shall include restorations, replacements or renewals when necessary to keep the Promises and all improvements thereon or a part thereof in good order, condition and state of repair. If Lessee occupies the Premises for seven (7) years or more, lessor may require Lessee to repaint the exterior of the buildings on the Premises as reasonably required, but not more frequently than once every seven (7) years.

(iv) landscaping and irrigation systems, (v) roof covering and drain maintenance and (vi) asphalt and parking lot maintenance.
Repair or Replacement (i) In the event of a Casualty or Taking between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall elect, at its option, to either (A) repair or replace or make adequate provision for the repair or replacement of the Damaged Portion of the Purchased Assets at Seller’s cost prior to the Closing, in which case Buyer’s obligation to effect the Closing shall not be affected, but the Closing Date (and the End Date, if necessary) shall be deferred until three (3) Business Days after repairs 38 or replacement have been completed and the Damaged Portion of the Purchased Assets is fully repaired or restored to the condition thereof immediately prior to such Casualty or Taking in accordance with applicable Laws or Orders, or (B) negotiate with Buyer to reduce the Purchase Price to reflect the cost to repair or replace the Damaged Portion of the Purchased Assets and the post-Closing loss of net income associated with such business interruption (such repair or replacement costs and loss of net income, the “Repair Costs”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller’s election in clause (A) of this Section 8.5(b)(i) shall be unavailable and clause (B) of this Section 8.5(b)(i) shall apply if the Damaged Portion of the Purchased Assets cannot reasonably be expected to be fully repaired or restored to the condition thereof immediately prior to such Casualty or Taking in accordance with applicable Laws or Orders on or before the date that is 180 days following the occurrence of the Casualty or Taking (the “Casualty Event Termination Date”)
(ii) If Seller and Buyer agree on the Repair Costs within fifteen (15) days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice of the Casualty or Taking (the “Repair Negotiation Period”), Buyer’s obligation to effect the Closing shall not be affected, but the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Repair Costs so agreed.
(iii) If Seller and Buyer do not agree on the Repair Costs within the Repair Negotiation Period (a “Repair Cost Dispute”), Buyer or Seller may request an engineering company (and/or other appropriate specialist) that shall be mutually agreed to by Buyer and Seller to evaluate the Damaged Portion of the Purchased Assets and the loss of net income associated with such business interruption and deliver to Buyer and Seller its written estimate of the Repair Costs (the “Third-Party Estimate”) within fifteen (15) days after the end of the Repair Negotiation Period. If the Third-Party Estimate is less than the Buyer Casualty Threshold (or greater than the Buyer Casualty Threshold or Seller Casualty Threshold, as applicable, and neither party terminates the Agreement as permitted pursuant to Section 8.5(b)(iv)), Buyer’s obligation to effect the Closing shall not be affected and Buyer and Seller shall mutually resolve the Repair Cost Dispute after the Closing in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the engineering company or other appropriate specialist shall be deemed to be the Inspector for purposes of Section 2.3), with a post-Closing adjustment to the Purchase Price equal to the finally-determined Repair Costs.
(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 8.5(f), if the Repair Costs as agreed to by Buyer and Seller or the Third-Party Estimate, as applicable, (A) is equal to or greater than the Buyer Casualty Threshold, Buyer may elect, by giving Seller written notice of election within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Third-Party Estimate, or (B) is equal to or greater than the Seller Casualty Threshold, Seller may elect, by giving Buyer written notice of election within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Third Party Estimate, to terminate this Agreement without further obligation hereunder, except as provided in Section 11.2.
Maintenance Repairs and Alterations A. Except to the extent such obligations are imposed upon Landlord hereunder, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the interior of the Premises in good order, condition and repair throughout the entire Lease Term, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Tenant agrees to keep the areas visible from outside the Premises in a neat, clean and attractive condition at all times. Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s written demand therefor, reimburse Landlord for the cost of all repairs, replacements and alterations (collectively, “Repairs”) in and to the Premises, Building and Property and the facilities and systems thereof, plus an administration charge often percent (10%) of such cost, the need for which Repairs arises out of (and provided Landlord has given prior written notice to Tenant of such need): (1) Tenant’s use of the Premises in contravention of the terms and conditions of this Lease, or Tenant’s failure to perform maintenance or repairs which are Tenant’s obligation hereunder, (2) the installation, removal, use or operation of Tenant’s Property, if undertaken by Landlord at Tenant’s request or by virtue of Tenant’s default in undertaking such obligations, (3) the moving of Tenant’s Property into or out of the Building, or (4) the act, omission, misuse or negligence of Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees or invitees.
B. Tenant shall not make or allow to be made any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises (collectively, “Alterations”), without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided however, Tenant shall have the right to perform, without Landlord’s consent, certain Alterations that do not cost in excess of $25,000.00 in the aggregate (at any one time), and do not affect any mechanical or electrical or life safety systems or plumbing in the Building, provided that advance notice has been given to Landlord in each instance. Landlord reserves the right to require Tenant to remove at the end of the Lease Term any Alterations installed without the Landlord’s consent. Prior to commencing any such Alterations and as a condition to obtaining Landlord’s consent where necessary, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord plans and specifications acceptable to Landlord; names and addresses of contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord; copies of contracts; necessary permits and approvals; evidence of contractor’s and subcontractor’s insurance in accordance with Section 13 hereof; and a payment bond or other security, all in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall be responsible for insuring that all such persons procure and maintain insurance coverage against such risks, in such amounts and with such companies as Landlord may reasonably require. All Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner using Building standard materials or other new materials of equal or greater quality. Landlord, to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid any disruption to the tenants and occupants of the Building, shall have the right to designate the time when any Alterations may be performed and to otherwise designate reasonable rules, regulations and procedures for the performance of work in the Building. Upon completion of the Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord “as-built” plans, contractor’s affidavits and full and final waivers of lien and receipted bills covering all labor and materials. All Alterations shall comply with the insurance requirements and with applicable codes, ordinances, laws and regulations. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all reasonable sums, if any, expended by Landlord for third party examination of the architectural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing plans for any Alterations. In addition, if Landlord so requests, Landlord shall be entitled to oversee the construction of any Alterations, and in such event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s actual out of pocket costs incurred in connection therewith, which may include the cost of management personnel working outside of Normal Business Hours. Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications for any Alterations performed for or on behalf of Tenant shall not be deemed to be representation by Landlord that such plans and specifications comply with applicable insurance requirements, building codes, ordinances, laws or, regulations or that the Alterations constructed in accordance with such plans and specifications will be adequate for Tenant’s use.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS, OR ALTERATIONS The Tenant shall, at their own expense and at all times, maintain premises in a clean and sanitary manner, and shall surrender the same at termination hereof, in as good condition as received, normal wear and tear excepted. The Tenant may not make any alterations to the leased premises without the consent in writing of the Landlord. The Landlord shall be responsible for repairs to the interior and exterior of the building. If the Premises includes a washer, dryer, freezer, dehumidifier unit and/or air conditioning unit, the Landlord makes no warranty as to the repair or replacement of units if one or all shall fail to operate. The Landlord will place fresh batteries in all battery-operated smoke detectors when the Tenant moves into the premises. After the initial placement of the fresh batteries it is the responsibility of the Tenant to replace batteries when needed. A monthly "cursory" inspection may be required for all fire extinguishers to make sure they are fully charged.
Alterations and Repairs Lessee shall not make or permit to be made any other alterations, additions, improvements, or changes (collectively, “Alterations”), in the premises, without Lessor’s prior written approval, which approval Lessor may withhold in Lessor’s sole discretion. Subject to the services to be rendered by Lessor as set forth in the Schedule, Lessee shall, at Lessee’s expense, keep the premises generally consistent with the standard maintained by other tenants of premises in the Building during the tenancy. If Lessee does not make repairs promptly and adequately, Lessor may, but need not, make repairs, and Lessee shall pay promptly the reasonable cost thereof. At any time or times, Lessor, either voluntarily or pursuant to governmental requirement, may, at Lessor’s expense, make repairs, alterations, or improvements in or to the Building or any part thereof, including the premises, and, during such operations Lessor may close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators, or other facilities, all without any liability to Lessee or deduction of rent by reason of interference, inconvenience, or annoyance; provided that Lessee shall have access to the premises sufficient for conduct of Lessee’s business. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any expense, injury, loss, or damage resulting from work done in or upon, or the use of, any adjacent or nearby building, land, street, or alley, provided that Lessor makes a reasonable effort to minimize the disruption to Lessee’s business. In the event Lessee requests that repairs, alterations, decorating, or other work in the premises be made during periods other than ordinary business hours, Lessee shall pay Lessor for overtime and other additional expenses incurred because of such request.
Removal of Improvements All items of Landlord’s construction, all heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment and all permanent improvements installed by Landlord shall be the property of Landlord and shall not be removed from the Leased Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. All trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings and signs installed in the Leased Premises by Xxxxxx and paid for by Tenant shall remain the property of Tenant, and may be removed upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease, provided that:
i. Tenant shall have fully performed all of the covenants, conditions and provisions to be performed by Tenant under this Lease; and
ii. Tenant repairs any damage to the Leased Premises or the Building caused by such removal and restores the Leased Premises to the condition that existed on the commencement date of this Lease, reasonable wear and tear excepted. If Tenant fails to remove any such items from the Leased Premises within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, all such trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings and signs shall, at Landlord’s options, become the property of Landlord, unless Landlord elects to require their removal, in which case Tenant shall promptly remove the same and restore the Leased Premises to its prior condition. If Tenant fails to promptly remove the same, Landlord may remove and store such items at the expense of Tenant.
Construction of Tenant Improvements Tenant shall install the Tenant Improvements (as described in Paragraph 2(a) below) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Work Letter. The quantities, character and manner of installation of all of the work related to the Tenant Improvements shall be subject to the limitations imposed by any applicable governmental regulations, laws, ordinances, codes and rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may at Landlord’s sole election itself (with Landlord’s contractor) construct the portion of the Tenant Improvements that consist of the restrooms and related improvements that will service Building 2 (the “Restroom Improvements”), at Tenant’s cost up to a maximum amount of $322,764 (subject to Section 9(b) below), provided that (a) Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of such election prior to Tenant’s commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, and (b) Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to not unreasonably interfere with or delay Tenant’s installation of the Tenant Improvements. If a certificate of occupancy or equivalent permit sign-off for the Premises is delayed beyond the Building 2 Scheduled Commencement Date solely as a result of Landlord’s failure to substantially complete the Restroom Improvements prior to such date, which failure does not result from Tenant Delays (as defined below) or Force Majeure, then the Building 2 Commencement Date shall be extended day for day by the number of days after the Building 2 Scheduled Commencement Date until the issuance of a certificate of occupancy or equivalent permit sign-off (but in no event shall the Building 2 Commencement Date be delayed beyond the date Tenant commences business in the Premises), provided, however, that Tenant delivers written notice to Landlord at such time as Tenant becomes aware that Landlord is in danger of causing such delay. “Tenant Delays” shall mean (i) Tenant’s delay in submittal of Tenant’s Plans and/or responses to Landlord’s comments to Tenant’s Plans beyond the time periods provided in this Work Letter, (ii) Tenant’s delay in any submittals for permits or other governmental approvals with respect to the Tenant Improvements (including without limitation the Restroom Improvements), (iii) changes in Tenant’s Plans as they relate to the Restroom Improvements after they have been submitted to governmental authorities for permits, (iv) delay in obtaining materials for reasons outside Landlord’s reasonable control, and (v) Tenant’s failure to provide reasonable access to the Premises to Landlord’s contractors to install the Restroom Improvements, or unreasonable interference with such installation by Tenant or its contractors or agents.
Maintenance and Repairs (1) Except for matters specified under Paragraph 4 above and Paragraph 8A(3) below as being Landlord's obligation, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire and casualty excepted, including: the interior surfaces of the ceilings, walls and floors; all doors and interior windows; furnishings installed within the Premises; all equipment installed by or at the expense of Tenant; and all plumbing, heating, ventilating, electrical and lighting facilities and fixtures; all landscaping, parking lots, fences and signs located within the Premises.
(2) In the event that Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair as required under this Lease, Landlord shall give Tenant prior written notice to do such acts as are required to so maintain the Premises. In the event that Tenant fails to commence such work within 30 days after written demand by Landlord, and diligently prosecute it to completion, then Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to do such acts and expend such funds at the expense of Tenant as are reasonably required to perform such work. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for any reasonable damage, inconvenience or interference with Tenant's use of the Premises as a result of performing any such work.
(3) Landlord will maintain, repair and replace all structural components of the Premises and the roof of the Building, and if a repair, replacement or alteration or other change would be considered a capital improvement or replacement to the Premises under generally accepted accounting principles, then it shall be Landlord's responsibility to promptly make and pay for such repair, replacement, alteration or other change. The cost of any such capital improvement shall be amortized over the useful life of such item and Tenant agrees to pay its percentage share (which shall be determined by dividing the square footage of the Building by the square footage of all buildings benefitted by such improvement, including the Building) of the annual amortized amount. Such payment will be made by Tenant as set forth in Paragraph 4 above. Landlord shall do all acts required to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations and rules of any public authority relating to the Premises, except to the extent that the foregoing are solely a result of Tenant's use of the Premises. Tenant shall do all acts required to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations and rules of any public authority relating solely to Tenant's use of the Premises. If a repair is required as a result of Tenant's negligence and such repair cost is not covered by insurance proceeds, Tenant will pay for the cost of such repair. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event that the need for repairs or the making of repairs (or both) which Landlord is obligated to effect at Landlord's expense renders a material portion of the Premises unusable for more than three consecutive business days, then Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of rent commencing with the fourth business day that the same are unusable; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be entitled to a pro rata abatement of rent under the foregoing due to unusability (i) caused directly or indirectly by any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant's servants, employees, agents, contractors, visitors or licensees, (ii) where Tenant makes a decoration, alteration, improvement or addition which directly causes such unusability, or (iii) where the repair in question is one which Tenant is obligated to furnish under the provisions of this Lease.
