Modification of Lease Should any current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor for the Building or Project require a modification of this Lease, which modification will not cause an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way materially and adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, then and in such event, Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified and agrees to execute whatever documents are reasonably required therefor and to deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days following a request therefor. At the request of Landlord or any mortgagee or ground lessor, Tenant agrees to execute a short form of Lease and deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days following the request therefor.
Sublease 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.
Time of the Essence in This Tenant Work Letter Unless otherwise indicated, all references herein to a “number of days” shall mean and refer to calendar days. If any item requiring approval is timely disapproved by Landlord, the procedure for preparation of the document and approval thereof shall be repeated until the document is approved by Landlord.
Ratification of Lease Except as amended hereby, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and is hereby ratified. In the event of a conflict between the Lease and this Amendment, this Amendment shall control.
Amendment to Lease If Tenant timely exercises Tenant’s right to lease the Availability Premises or any portion thereof as set forth herein, then, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment adding such Availability Premises to this Lease upon the same terms and conditions as the Initial Premises, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 1.4 or the Availability Notice, and provided that the terms of the Tenant Work Letter shall not apply with respect to the Availability Premises (except as otherwise provided in Section 1.4.5, above); provided, however, an otherwise valid exercise of Tenant’s right of availability shall be of full force and effect irrespective of whether such amendment is ever signed by Landlord and Tenant. Except to the extent inconsistent with the determination of Availability Premises Rent, all provisions of the Lease which vary based upon the rentable and usable square footage of the Premises shall be adjusted to reflect the addition of such Availability Premises to the Premises; provided, however, the L-C Amount shall be increased pursuant to the terms of Section 21.7 of this Lease, below. The rentable square footage of such Availability Premises shall be determined in accordance with the terms of Section 1.2 of this Lease. To the extent Tenant exercises its right of first offer with respect to any portion of the Availability Premises during the first (1st) year after the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall commence payment of Availability Premises Rent and Excess as to such space to Landlord upon that date (the “Availability Premises Rent Commencement Date”) which is two hundred ten (210) days after the later of the delivery date set forth in the Availability Notice and the date Landlord delivers the Availability Premises in the Delivery Condition (the “Availability Premises Lease Commencement Date”). To the extent Tenant exercises its right of availability with respect to any portion of the Availability Premises anytime after the first (1st) anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date, the Availability Premises Rent Commencement Date shall occur one hundred eighty (180) days after the Availability Premises Lease Commencement Date. In all cases, the lease term of the Availability Premises (or any portion thereof) shall expire on the Lease Expiration Date, subject to extension of this Lease; provided, however, in the event the remaining Lease Term is less than thirty-six (36) months from the applicable Availability Premises Rent Commencement Date, then the Lease Term shall be extended for a period of time sufficient for Tenant’s lease of the Premises to be coterminous with Tenant’s lease of the Availability Premises (which shall be thirty-six (36) months from the applicable Availability Premises Rent Commencement Date), and the base rental rate for the Premises during this extended period shall be adjusted to Market Rent for the Premises determined in accordance with Section 2.2.4 and the Base Year shall be the year in which the Lease would have otherwise expired (if on or before July 31) or the following year (if after July 31). This extension shall have no impact on Tenant’s extension rights hereunder, which may be exercised at the end of the extended Lease Term. This Lease shall commence as to the Availability Premises (and references to Premises shall include the applicable Availability Premises) on the Availability Premises Lease Commencement Date.
Agreement to Lease Lessor hereby agrees to lease the Aircraft to Lessee, and Lessee hereby agrees to lease the Aircraft from Lessor, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Lease.
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.
Assignment and Subletting by Tenant 7.1.1 Tenant shall not have the right to assign, transfer, mortgage or encumber this Lease in whole or in part, nor sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, nor allow the occupancy of all or any part of the Premises by another, without first obtaining Landlord’s consent, which consent may be granted or denied in accordance with this paragraph. In no event shall the determination of the amount of rent be expressed in whole or in part as a percentage of the income or profits derived by the subtenant from the space leased (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or percentages of gross receipts or gross sales). Notwithstanding any permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and liable for the payment of all sums payable under this Lease and for compliance with all of its other obligations as tenant under this Lease. Landlord’s acceptance of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other sum from any assignee, sublessee, transferee, mortgagee or encumbrance holder shall not be deemed to be Landlord’s approval of any such conveyance. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if the Premises or any part of the Premises are then subject to an assignment or subletting, Landlord may, at its option, collect directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or sublease and apply such rents against any sums due to Landlord from Tenant under this Lease. No such collection shall be construed to constitute a novation or release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord’s right of direct collection shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights and remedies provided for in this Lease or at law. Tenant makes an absolute assignment to Landlord of such assignments and subleases and any rent, Lease Security Deposits and other sums payable under such assignments and subleases as collateral to secure the performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease.
