• Common Area Maintenance Landlord will maintain or cause to be maintained the Common Areas and Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Tenant’s prorata share of the cost of such maintenance as hereinafter provided. (a) Common area maintenance costs and expenses shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and allocated to any particular calendar year on the accrual method of accounting. Such costs and expenses shall include, but shall not be limited to upkeep, exterior painting, repairs, replacements and improvements in the Common Areas, snow removal, sweeping and cleanup, depreciation allowance on any machinery and equipment owned by Landlord and used in connection therewith, utility services including fire line water service charges, premiums for public liability, property damage and fire insurance including the Common Areas, any real estate tax and/or tax consultant expense incurred for the purpose of maintaining equitable tax assessments on the Development, all property taxes or assessments levied or assessed against all Common Areas, which, if not separately assessed, shall be determined, for land, by the ratio of land area designated for Common Area use to the total land area in the Development and, for improvements, on a fair and equitable allocation among the various improvements in the Development, giving weight to the factors which determine the amount of the real property tax or assessment in question. In addition, such costs shall include administrative costs equal to ten percent (10%) of the total cost paid or incurred by Landlord under this paragraph. (b) Tenant shall pay as additional rent to Landlord, Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses in the following manner: (1) From and after the date the minimum rental provided for herein has commenced, but subject to adjustment as hereinafter in this subparagraph (1) provided, Tenant shall pay Landlord in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease an estimated and adjustable amount covering Tenant’s proportionate share of common area services and expenses, which amount may be adjusted by Landlord by notice to Tenant at the end of any calendar month on the basis of Landlord’s experience and reasonably anticipated costs. (See Lease Rider “A” Building Expenses attached hereto and incorporated herein.) (2) Within thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement covering the calendar year just expired, showing the total operating costs, the amount of Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses for such calendar year and the payments made by Tenant with respect to such calendar year as set forth in subparagraph (b) I. If Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses exceeds Tenant’s payments so made, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within ten (10) days after receipt of such statement. If said payments exceed Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses, Tenant shall be entitled to offset the excess against payments next thereafter to become due Landlord as set forth in said subparagraph (b) I. Tenant’s pro-rata share of the total Common Area expenses for the previous calendar year shall be that portion of all such expenses which is equal to the proportion which the number of square feet of gross leasable area in the Demised Premises bears to the total number of square feet of gross leasable area of buildings in the entire Development which are from time to time completed and occupied as of the commencement of each calendar year.

• Property Maintenance Maintain all of its property that is necessary to or useful in the proper conduct of its business in good working condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

Tenant shall be responsible to enter into a servicing agreement for the heating and air conditioning equipment, at Tenant's expense satisfaction to Landlord. Landlord shall in no event be responsible for replacement of any broken windows, regardless of the cause thereof, the responsibility for which being that of Tenant. Tenant shall make no alterations or structural changes to the improvements on the demised premises or place signs on the exterior thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall also be billed directly for and pay the maintenance fees charged by the Northgate Center Association and covering the term of this Lease, as it may be renewed. Upon the commencement of this Lease and the termination of this Lease, if it does not coincide with the Association's billing cycle, Tenant shall pay to Landlord his pro rata amount of the Association fees until the beginning of the next billing cycle, if at the beginning of the Lease term, and from the end of the last billing cycle to the date of termination, upon termination of the Lease.

• Planned Maintenance (a) Subject to any modification or amendment of this Agreement made pursuant to Section 4.2(c) or Section 7.3(d), Planned Maintenance occurring during the Delivery Term shall be coordinated and scheduled in accordance with this Section 9.6. Seller shall perform all Planned Maintenance (including Major Planned Maintenance) in a manner that optimizes the generation and benefits to Buyer of the Contract Energy, Storage Energy, and other Products (e.g., during off-peak periods and low-irradiance periods) and, without limiting the foregoing, either (i) outside of Daylight Hours or (ii) during the months of October and November only, during Daylight Hours; provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any Planned Maintenance that Seller is required to perform pursuant to any applicable manufacturer warranty that cannot reasonably be performed by Seller subject to such restrictions. (b) Seller shall deliver to Buyer a proposed schedule for Planned Maintenance in respect of each Contract Year (“Planned Maintenance Schedule”) no later than ninety (90) Days before the start of such Contract Year. Planned Maintenance Schedules submitted by Seller shall (i) comply with the second sentence of Section 9.6(a) and (ii) include reasonably detailed descriptions of the Planned Maintenance to be performed, the Days and times in which each type of Planned Maintenance is scheduled to be performed, the estimated amount(s) of Contract Capacity and Storage Capacity that will be unavailable due to Planned Maintenance and the total number of hours that Seller expects that the Contract Capacity and Storage Capacity will be unavailable due to Planned Maintenance. The general form for the Planned Maintenance Schedule is set forth in Schedule 9.6. (The Planned Maintenance descriptions reflected in the general form set forth in Schedule 9.6 are provided for indicative purposes only, and are not necessarily representative of the detail, time periods, or certainty required for a Planned Maintenance Schedule hereunder.) (c) Buyer shall have the right to disapprove, in its reasonable discretion (provided that Buyer shall have the right to disapprove, in its sole and absolute discretion, any Planned Maintenance proposed by Seller that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement), any Planned Maintenance set out in any Planned Maintenance Schedule proposed by Seller for any Contract Year, except for any Planned Maintenance that (i) is scheduled to occur outside of Daylight Hours or during Daylight Hours during the months of October and November or (ii) Seller is required to perform pursuant to any applicable manufacturer warranty and that is scheduled to occur in compliance with Section 9.6(a). If Seller submits its Planned Maintenance Schedule for a Contract Year in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement and Buyer does not disapprove of any Planned Maintenance set out in such Planned Maintenance Schedule by sixty (60) days after submission, then such Planned Maintenance Schedule shall be deemed approved. If Buyer, in the exercise of its discretion as set forth above, disapproves any Planned Maintenance in such Planned Maintenance Schedule within the applicable time period specified above after its submission, Buyer shall notify Seller and the Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to agree upon and finalize a mutually acceptable Planned Maintenance Schedule for the applicable Contract Year. Seller shall conduct Planned Maintenance during such Contract Year only in accordance with an agreed Planned Maintenance Schedule; provided, however, that Seller may (A) move Planned Maintenance included in an agreed Planned Maintenance Schedule that is not Major Planned Maintenance, so long as such move is consistent with the terms of this Agreement (including the second sentence of Section 9.6(a)) or, with respect to Major Planned Maintenance, if such Major Planned Maintenance is scheduled to occur outside of Daylight Hours or during Daylight Hours during the months of October and November and (B) schedule and perform Planned Maintenance not reflected in the Planned Maintenance Schedule so long as such Planned Maintenance is scheduled to be performed outside of Daylight Hours or during Daylight Hours during the months of October and November and Seller provides Buyer at least two (2) weeks’ prior written notice of such Planned Maintenance; provided further that Buyer shall have the right to advise Seller of periods when Buyer prefers, based on solar irradiance, supply, market and other conditions, that any Major Planned Maintenance be deferred, and Seller shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to comply with such request. (d) Seller shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to complete any Planned Maintenance and place the Facility back into full commercial operation as soon as reasonably possible. If Seller determines that any Planned Maintenance scheduled in an agreed Planned Maintenance Schedule no longer needs to be completed or will not consume the entire time scheduled therefor in the agreed Planned Maintenance Schedule, Seller shall provide (i) a Generation Forecast to Buyer reflecting the forecasted amount of Delivered Energy during each affected interval that takes into account such change and (ii) in the case of any Major Planned Maintenance, a written notice declaring the cessation and termination of the applicable Major Planned Maintenance period (in which event, the Major Planned Maintenance period shall terminate in accordance with the terms of such Generation Forecast and written notice).
