Rent Credit Subject to the terms of this Section 10.3, if (I) (i) Landlord fails to perform Landlord’s covenants hereunder, (ii) Landlord interrupts or curtails the level of service provided by Building Systems as contemplated by Section 10.2 hereof, or (iii) Landlord performs repairs, alterations, improvements, additions or restorations in the Building, and (II) Tenant, by reason of the event described in clause (I) above, is unable for at least ten (10) consecutive Business Days to operate Tenant’s business in the Premises (or a portion thereof) in substantially the same manner that Tenant conducted its business prior to such event, then Tenant shall be entitled to a credit to apply against the Fixed Rent thereafter coming due hereunder in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the sum of the Fixed Rent for the Premises, by (b) three hundred sixty-five (365) (or three hundred sixty-six (366) in a leap year), by (c) the number of square feet of Rentable Area in the Premises, by (B) the number of square feet of Rentable Area of the portion of the Premises which is unusable, as aforesaid, by (C) the number of days in the period commencing on (and including) the date immediately following the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the event that is described in clause (I) above and ending on the date that such portion of the Premises becomes usable. If (x) Tenant is entitled to a credit against Rental pursuant to this Section 10.3, and (y) the Expiration Date occurs prior to the date that such credit is exhausted, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the unused portion of such credit on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the Expiration Date (and Landlord’s obligation to make such payment shall survive the Expiration Date). This Section 10.3 shall not apply in respect of the occurrence of a fire or other casualty or in respect of a condemnation. This Section 10.3 shall not limit the provisions of Section 5.2 hereof.
Tenant Delay If the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvement Work is delayed (a “Tenant Delay”) as a result of (a) any failure of Tenant to approve the Construction Pricing Proposal pursuant to Section 2.6 above on or before Tenant’s Approval Deadline; (b) Tenant’s failure to timely approve any matter requiring Tenant’s approval; (c) any breach by Tenant of this Work Letter or the Lease; (d) any request by Tenant for a revision to the Approved Construction Drawings (except to the extent such delay results from any failure of Landlord to perform its obligations under Section 2.7 above); (e) Tenant’s requirement for materials, components, finishes or improvements that are not available in a commercially reasonable time given the anticipated date of Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvement Work as set forth in this Agreement; (f) any change to the base, shell or core of the Premises or Building required by the Approved Construction Drawings; or (g) any other act or omission of Tenant or any of its agents, employees or representatives, then, notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, and regardless of when the Tenant Improvement Work is actually Substantially Completed, the Tenant Improvement Work shall be deemed to be Substantially Completed on the date on which the Tenant Improvement Work would have been Substantially Completed if no such Tenant Delay had occurred.
Landlord Delay Landlord’s (a) failure to comply with any time requirements expressly set forth in Paragraph 2.d. above with respect to Landlord’s obligation to provide notice of approval or disapproval of the Space Plan, Working Drawings or Change Orders, or (b) Landlord’s unreasonable interference with the completion of Tenant Improvements, including any failure or refusal of Landlord or Landlord’s agents or contractors to permit Tenant, its agents or contractors, access to and use of the Building or any Building facilities or services (including hoists, elevators, and loading docks) which access or use is reasonably required for the orderly and continuous performance of the work necessary to complete Tenant Improvements, are referred to collectively herein as “Landlord Delay” (provided that no Landlord Delay as described in clause (b) above will be deemed to have occurred unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord of the event which Tenant claims constitutes a Landlord Delay and Landlord has failed to cure such event within five (5) Business Days thereafter). Tenant will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages and/or construction delays in the event of an alleged Landlord Delay. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 2, if and to the extent Tenant reasonably incurs a net increased cost (taking into account any cost saving Landlord might have facilitated by its actions, including any Landlord Delay) of design or construction of the Tenant Improvements as a direct result of any Landlord Delay (as reasonably evidenced by Tenant, with supporting documentation), Landlord will be responsible for such reasonable increased costs and Landlord’s Allowance will be increased by the amount of such reasonable increased cost. Further, when determining whether a particular Landlord Delay delayed Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, the subject Landlord Delay shall be offset by any action or response by Landlord that achieved a reduction in Tenant’s construction schedule (each day saved in Tenant’s construction schedule being a “Schedule Saving Day”) and any aggregate Landlord Delay as described in this Paragraph 2.f. shall first be offset against, and reduced on a day-for-day basis by, the aggregate number of Schedule Saving Days. In the event of a disagreement between Landlord and Tenant as to whether a Landlord Delay has occurred and/or as to the application of this grammatical paragraph, either party may submit the issue to the dispute resolution procedure set forth in Paragraph 2.j. below. This Paragraph 2.f. is inapplicable to delays in Delivery, whether caused by Landlord, Landlord’s Contractor or otherwise (such delays being expressly covered by Paragraph 2.a. above) and this Paragraph 2.f. only applies to delays in the commencement or Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements following Delivery.
Tenant Delays A "Tenant Delay” shall be defined as any delay in the design, permitting or performance of the Base Building Work to the extent that such delay is actually caused by any act or, where there is a duty to act under this Lease, any failure to act by Tenant or Tenant's contractors, architects, engineers, or anyone else engaged by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvement Work as set forth in this Article III (including, without limitation, any delays resulting from the Approved Tenant Finishes under Section 3.l(C) above) and disclosed to Tenant as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any delays in the completion of the Base Building Work caused by Tenant’s use of non-union labor constitute a Tenant Delay hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no event shall be deemed a Tenant Delay unless and until Landlord has given Tenant written notice (the "Tenant Delay Notice") advising Tenant: (x) that a Tenant Delay is occurring and setting forth Landlord's good faith estimate as to the likely length of such Tenant Delay; (y) of the basis on which Landlord has determined that a Tenant Delay is occurring; and (z) the actions which Landlord believes that Tenant must take to eliminate such Tenant Delay. No event shall be deemed to be a Tenant Delay unless and until Tenant has failed to rectify the situation causing the Tenant Delay within forty-eight (48) hours after Tenant's receipt of the Tenant Delay Notice (which for the purposes of determining receipt may be delivered by hand to Tenant's Construction Representative, with copies to follow to Tenant at the notice address set forth in Section 1.2 of this Lease within five (5) days thereafter); provided, however, that if Tenant shall fail to eliminate the delay within the aforesaid 48-hour period, then the 48-hour cure period shall be included in the period of time charged to Tenant pursuant to such Tenant Delay Notice (it being understood and agreed that if Tenant shall in fact eliminate the Tenant Delay within the 48-hour cure period, no Tenant Delay shall be deemed to have occurred for the purposes of this Article III). In addition, any delay to the extent caused by (i) Landlord Delay or (ii) subject to the limitations of subsection (D) below, Tenant's Force Majeure (as defined in said subsection (D)) shall not constitute Tenant Delay. Tenant covenants that no Tenant Delay shall delay commencement of the Term or the obligation to pay Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent. The Delivery Dates and/or the date of substantial completion of the Base Building Work, as applicable, shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date when such Delivery Dates and/or date of substantial completion of the Base Building Work, as applicable, would have occurred but for any Tenant Delays, as determined by Landlord in the exercise of its good faith business judgment (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not be construed so as to relieve Landlord of its obligation to actually complete the Base Building Work, notwithstanding the fact that substantial completion may have been deemed to have occurred prior to actual completion as the result of Tenant Delays).
Tenant Improvement Allowance Subject to the terms of this Section 38 set forth below, there shall be paid by the Landlord as the Landlord’s contribution toward Tenant’s Initial Alterations, the sum (“Allowance”) of $7,191,555.84, based upon a contribution of $68.04 per rentable square foot for 105,696 rentable square feet in the Initial Premises. Tenant shall submit to Landlord Tenant’s good faith estimate (“Qualified Cost Estimate”) of the Qualified Costs (hereinafter defined) to be incurred by Tenant in connection with its move to and the construction of Initial Alterations in the Premises. Installments of the Allowance shall be payable in accordance with the procedures set forth below. Installments of the Allowance, which shall in no event exceed in the aggregate the amount of the Allowance, shall be paid to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option if Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant is not paying its contractors and such failure to pay may give rise to a lien against the Building, to the order of the contractor that performed the work set forth in the respective invoices) or, at Tenant’s option to Tenant’s contractors, with respect to Qualified Costs theretofore incurred by Tenant (and not theretofore paid to Tenant or which were Tenant’s responsibility as set forth in this Article 38) for which Tenant has submitted a requisition consisting of, (i) in the case of other than costs incurred under architectural and engineering contracts (collectively “Professional Services Contracts”) or under construction contracts, such as furniture or moving or professional fees that are contracted for by Tenant separate from construction and Professional Services Contracts, paid invoices, (ii) in the case of Professional Services Contracts, invoices, and (iii) in the case of construction costs (a) an application for payment and sworn statement of a contractor performing general contracting work in the Premises substantially in the form of AIA Document G-702 covering all work for which disbursement is to be made to a date specified therein which is part of the construction contract; (b) a certification from an AIA architect substantially in the form of the Architect’s Certificate for Payment which is located on AIA Document G702, Application and Certificate of Payment; (c) contractor’s, project managers and subcontractor’s waivers of liens which shall cover all applicable items of Qualified Costs under such construction contracts for which disbursement is being requested and any other statements and forms required for compliance with the mechanics’ lien laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, together with invoices with respect to such Qualified Costs and such other supporting data as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably require; (iv) a cost breakdown for each trade or subcontractor performing the work included in Qualified Costs for which a request for disbursement under such construction contracts is being made; (v) copies of all construction contracts for the such Alterations, together with copies of all change orders, if any; and (iii) a request to disburse from Tenant containing an acknowledgement by Tenant of the work done and a good faith estimate of the cost to complete the Initial Alterations to the Premises. Upon completion of the Initial Alterations, and as part of the requisition for final disbursement of the Allowance for hard construction costs, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with: (1) general contractor and architect’s completion affidavits, (2) full and final waivers of lien, (3) receipted bills covering all labor and materials expended and used, (4) as-built plans of the Alterations, and (5) the certification of Tenant’s architect to the Landlord that, based on on-site observation and the data comprising the application for disbursement, to the best of the architect’s knowledge, information and belief, the Alterations have progressed as indicated in the application, the quality of the Alterations is in accordance with the construction contract documents and the contractor is entitled to; payment of the amount certified in the application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Qualified Cost Estimate exceeds the Allowance, Tenant shall be entitled to payments with respect to any requisition in accordance with the terms hereof except that each individual disbursement of the Allowance by Landlord shall be in the same ratio to the amount properly requisitioned as the Allowance bears to the Adjusted Qualified Cost Estimate (hereinafter defined). “Adjusted
Commencement Date Delay Except as otherwise provided in the Lease, Delivery of the Premises shall occur when Landlord’s Work has been Substantially Completed, except to the extent that completion of Landlord’s Work shall have been actually delayed by any one or more of the following causes (“Tenant Delay”):
Base Rent Abatement Provided that no Event of Default is then occurring, then during the period beginning on the Expansion Commencement Date and ending on November 14, 2010 (the “Base Rent Abatement Periods”), Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Base Rent otherwise attributable to the 6310 Initial Premises for such Base Rent Abatement Period (the “Base Rent Abatement”). Tenant acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding such Base Rent Abatement, such abatement of Base Rent shall have no effect on the calculation of any future increases in Base Rent, Operating Expenses or Tax Expenses payable by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease (as hereby amended), which increases shall be calculated without regard to such abatement of Base Rent or corresponding abatement periods. Such Base Rent Abatement has been granted to Tenant as additional consideration for entering into this First Amendment, and for agreeing to pay the “rent” and performing the terms and conditions otherwise required under the Lease, as amended. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 4.3, to the extent an Event of Default is then occurring, then Landlord may at its option, by notice to Tenant, elect, in addition to any other remedies Landlord may have under the Lease, one or both of the following remedies: (i) that Tenant shall immediately become obligated to pay to Landlord all Base Rent abated hereunder during the Base Rent Abatement Period, with interest as provided pursuant to the Lease from the date such Base Rent would have otherwise been due but for the abatement provided herein, or (ii) that the dollar amount of the unapplied portion of the Base Rent Abatement as of such Event of Default shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable to the Premises at the end of the Expansion Term and Tenant shall immediately be obligated to begin paying Base Rent for the entire Premises in full.
Disbursement of the Tenant Improvement Allowance Except as otherwise set forth in this Tenant Work Letter, the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be disbursed by Landlord (each of which disbursement shall be made pursuant to Landlord’s standard disbursement process), only for the following items and costs (collectively, the “Tenant Improvement Allowance Items”):
Construction Allowance Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance not to exceed $45.00 per rentable square foot in the Premises (the “Construction Allowance”) to be applied toward the Total Construction Costs, as adjusted for any changes to the Tenant’s Work. No advance of the Construction Allowance shall be made by Landlord until Tenant has first paid to the contractor from its own funds (and provided reasonable evidence thereof to Landlord) the anticipated Excess Amount. Thereafter, Landlord shall pay to Tenant the Construction Allowance, to be applied solely toward the remaining Total Construction Costs and not in reimbursement of the Excess Amount paid by Tenant, in multiple disbursements (but not more than once in any calendar month) following the receipt by Landlord of the following items: (i) a request for payment, (ii) final, unconditional or partial lien waivers, as the case may be, from all persons performing work or supplying or fabricating materials for the Tenant’s Work, fully executed, acknowledged and in recordable form, (iii) copies of all invoices and proof of payment of same, and (iv) the Architect’s certification that the Tenant’s Work for which reimbursement has been requested has been finally completed, including (with respect to the last application for payment only) any punch-list items, on the appropriate AIA form or another form approved by Landlord, and, with respect to the disbursement of the last 10% of the Construction Allowance: (1) the permanent certificate of occupancy issued for the Premises, (2) Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, (3) delivery of the “as-built” plans for the Tenant’s Work as constructed (and as set forth above) to Landlord’s construction representative (set forth below), and (4) an estoppel certificate confirming such factual matters as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request (collectively, a “Completed Application for Payment”). Landlord shall pay the amount requested in the applicable Completed Application for Payment to Tenant within 30 days following Tenant’s submission of the Completed Application for Payment. If, however, the Completed Application for Payment is incomplete or incorrect, Landlord’s payment of such request shall be deferred until 30 days following Landlord’s receipt of the corrected Completed Application for Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Exhibit, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any disbursement of the Construction Allowance during the pendency of any of the following: (A) Landlord has received written notice of any unpaid claims relating to any portion of the Tenant’s Work or materials in connection therewith, other than claims which will be paid in full from such disbursement, (B) there is an unbonded lien outstanding against the Project or the Premises or Tenant’s interest therein by reason of work done, or claimed to have been done, or materials supplied or specifically fabricated, claimed to have been supplied or specifically fabricated, to or for Tenant or the Premises, (C) the conditions to the advance of the Construction Allowance are not satisfied, or (D) an Event of Default by Tenant exists. If the Total Construction Costs for the Premises are less than the Construction Allowance, then Tenant shall not be entitled to receive payment or credit for such difference and Landlord shall retain the same. The Construction Allowance must be used (that is, the Tenant’s Work must be fully complete and the Construction Allowance disbursed) within twenty-four (24) months following the Commencement Date or shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto, time being of the essence with respect thereto. The Construction Allowance may be used in Tenant’s discretion for Tenant’s Work with no stipulation from Landlord as to how much of the Construction Allowance is allocated within the various spaces in the Premises.
Tenant Improvement Costs The Tenant Improvements’ cost (the “Tenant Improvement Costs”) shall mean and include any and all costs and expenses of the Work, including, without limitation, all of the following:
