Reconstruction (a) Subject to the provisions of subparagraphs (b) and (c) below, in the event the Premises or any other portion of the Building is damaged by fire or other perils covered by extended coverage insurance, and such damage does not require structural demolition and reconstruction of all or part of the Building, Landlord agrees to forthwith repair such damage utilizing the proceeds of insurance and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable reduction of Minimum Rent from the date of damage until completion of such repairs, based on the extent to which the damage and making of such repairs shall reasonably interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises.
(b) In the event that any casualty requires structural demolition and reconstruction of all or a material part of the Building (whether or not such reconstruction involves any portion of the Premises), Tenant may, at its election, give notice to Landlord at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage, terminating this Lease as of the date of the casualty. In the event of giving such notice, this Lease and all interest of Tenant in the Premises shall terminate on the date of the casualty, the Rent shall be paid up to the date of such casualty, and Landlord shall be entitled to all insurance maintained by Tenant on the Building (except for proceeds attributable to Tenant’s personal property in, on or about the Premises). In the alternative, and so long as at least five (5) years remain in the Term or Tenant then exercises an Option pursuant to Paragraph 3(b), if any Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord within such 60-day period, elect to require Landlord to repair or restore such damage, in which case the Minimum Rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided in subparagraph (a) above and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Tenant shall have the right to alter the size and configuration of the Building in the course of such reconstruction, so long as the Building as reconstructed is an integrated architectural unit, the dimensions of the Premises are substantially the same as prior to such casualty and Tenant is able to operate its business as intended at the time of Lease execution, subject to Landlord’s approval which will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or denied. If Tenant elects to require Landlord to construct the improvements, Tenant will make available to Landlord all insurance proceeds received by Tenant or due to Tenant, and, prior to any reconstruction, Tenant will deposit with Landlord or its contractor the amount by which the cost of reconstruction exceeds the amount of the insurance proceeds.
Preconstruction Phase The Preconstruction Phase shall mean the period commencing on the date of this CM/GC Contract and ending upon commencement of the Construction Phase; provided that if the Owner and CM/GC agree, the Construction Phase may commence before the Preconstruction Phase is completed, in which case both phases shall proceed concurrently, subject to the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents.
Preconstruction Services During the Design & Preconstruction Phase, the Design-Builder shall provide such design and preconstruction services as are necessary to properly advance the Project. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Preconstruction Phase, the Design-Builder shall: (i) work with its Architect and any design consultants to advance the design for the Project in consultation with Client Agency, the Department and its Program Manager; (ii) obtain bids from trade subcontractors to perform the work described in the Design Development Documents and provide bid tabulations to the Department; (iii) engage in any value engineering and scoping exercises necessary to return the cost of the work to the Project Budget; (iv) engage in preconstruction activities, including identifying any long-lead items; (v) develop a GMP proposal for the Project; and (vi) enter into a GMP for the Project. Throughout the Design & Preconstruction Phase, the Design-Builder shall schedule and attend regular meetings with the Department, the Program Manager and the Architect. A list of preconstruction deliverables is set forth in Exhibit C.
Construction Period During the construction period, Redeveloper agrees to keep the construction area, including completed operations insured against loss or damage by fire, and such other risks, casualties, and hazards as are customarily covered by builders’ risk or extended coverage policies in an amount not less than the replacement value but allowing for reasonable coinsurance clauses and deductibles. In the event of any insured damage or destruction, Redeveloper agrees to use its good faith efforts to commence restoration of the Private Improvements to its prior condition within nine (9) months from the date of the damage or destruction, and shall diligently pursue the same to completion.
Construction Work The regulation at 41 C.F.R. § 60-1.3 defines “construction work” as the construction, rehabilitation, alteration, conversion, extension, demolition or repair of buildings, highways, or other changes or improvements to real property, including facilities providing utility services. The term also includes the supervision, inspection, and other onsite functions incidental to the actual construction.
Construction of the Tenant Improvements (a) Tenant shall construct and install the Tenant Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, in compliance with all Laws and in accordance with this Exhibit B. Tenant’s proposed architect/engineer, general contractor, and fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical subcontractors are subject to Landlord’s prior approval. Promptly following the selection and approval of the architect/engineer, Tenant shall forward to said architect/engineer (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s building standards heretofore delivered to Tenant, and Tenant shall cause said architect/engineer to comply with said building standards. Promptly following the selection and approval of the general contractor, Tenant shall forward to said general contractor (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical specifications and Landlord’s rules of conduct, all of which have been delivered to Tenant prior to the date of this Lease, and Tenant shall cause said general contractor to comply with said specifications and rules of conduct. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall coordinate a meeting among Landlord (who will reasonably make its representative available for such meeting), Tenant and Tenant’s general contractor to discuss the Building systems and other matters related to the construction of the Tenant Improvements.
(b) Promptly following the date hereof, Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord a set of permittable construction drawings (the “CDs”), based on the preliminary plans attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 and made a part hereof (the “Preliminary Plans”), covering all work to be performed by Tenant in constructing the Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall have no right to make any Tenant Improvements that would materially alter the exterior appearance of the Building or the Building systems without Landlord’s prior approval. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the CDs in which to review the CDs and in which to give Tenant written notice of its approval of the CDs or its requested changes to the CDs in reasonably sufficient detail so as to allow Tenant to make the requested changes (provided that Landlord shall not be permitted to request a change that is inconsistent with the Preliminary Plans). If Landlord requests any changes to the CDs, Tenant shall make such changes and shall, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of Landlord’s requested changes (if any), submit the revised portion of the CDs to Landlord. Landlord shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the revised CDs in which to review said revised CDs and in which to give to Tenant written notice of its approval of the revised CDs or its requested changes thereto. This process shall continue until such time, if at all, that Landlord approves the CDs in accordance with this Section 2. Tenant shall at all times in its preparation of the CDs, and of any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith. Landlord shall at all times in its review of the CDs, and any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith.
