Lessee Improvements Lessee shall not make or allow to be made any alterations or physical additions in or to the leased premises without first obtaining the written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any alterations, physical additions or improvements to the leased premises made by Lessee shall at once become the property of Lessor and shall be surrendered to Lessor upon the termination of this Lease provided that Lessee shall be entitled to retain the property listed on Exhibit A attached hereto, and provided further that, Lessor, at its option, may require Lessee to remove any physical additions and/or repair any alterations in order to restore the leased premises to the condition existing at the time Lessee took possession, reasonable wear and tear excepted, all costs of removal and/or alterations to be borne by Lessee. This clause shall not apply to moveable equipment of furniture owned by Lessee, which may be removed by Lessee at the end of the term of this Lease if Lessee is not then in default and if such equipment and furniture are not then subject to any other rights, liens and interests of Lessor.
TENANT'S IMPROVEMENTS If the Lessor is the Insuring Party, the Lessor shall not be required to insure Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor under the terms of this Lease. If Lessee is the Insuring Party, the policy carried by Lessee under this Paragraph 8.3 shall insure Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations.
Materials and Equipment Except for materials or Equipment to be supplied by Subcontractors identified on part B of Schedule 7, whenever materials or Equipment are specified or described in this Contract (including the Specifications) by using the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular supplier, the naming of the item is intended to establish the type, function and quality required, and substitute materials or Equipment may nonetheless be used, provided that such materials or Equipment are equivalent or equal to that named. If the Vendor wishes to furnish or use a substitute item of material or Equipment, the Vendor must first certify that the proposed substitute will perform at least as well the functions and achieve the results called for by this Contract, will be substantially similar or of equal substance to that specified and be suited for the same use as that specified. The Owner may require the Vendor to furnish, at the Vendor's expense, additional data about the proposed substitute as required to evaluate the substitution. For Major Portions of the Work, or materials or Equipment listed on part B of Schedule 7, the Vendor must first receive prior written approval of the Owner for any substitution. The Owner will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposed substitute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to PCS Products, prior to the shipment of such PCS Products pursuant to the terms of this Contract, the Vendor may at any time without notice to or consent of the Owner make changes in a Vendor PCS Product furnished pursuant to this Contract, or modify the drawings and published specifications relating thereto, or substitute Products of similar or later design to fulfill its obligations under this Contract or otherwise fill an order, provided that the changes, modifications or substitutions will in no way affect or otherwise impact upon the form, fit, or function of an ordered Product pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable Specifications. With respect to changes, modifications and substitutions which do in fact affect the form, fit, or function of an ordered Product pursuant to and in accordance with the Specifications, the Vendor must notify the Owner in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective dates of any such changes, modifications or substitutions. In the event that any such change, modification or substitution is not desired by the Owner, the Owner will notify the Vendor within thirty (30) days from the date of notice and the Vendor will not furnish any such changed Products to the Owner on any orders in process at the time the Owner is so notified; provided that nothing contained herein will otherwise modify the Vendor's obligations under the terms of this Contract.
Title to Improvements Title to all materials, fixtures, Plans and Specifications and Shop Drawings shall be deemed vested in Owner when and as the same shall have been installed, affixed permanently to the realty or otherwise delivered to Owner. Owner shall not be liable for loss or damage to any material or fixtures as to which title is not then vested in Owner at the time of such loss or damage whether such material or fixtures are on the Job Site, in transit, under the control of Owner, or otherwise.
Leasehold Improvements Except for Minor Work (as hereinafter defined), Tenant shall not construct any Leasehold Improvements or otherwise alter the Leased Premises without Landlord’s prior approval, and not until Landlord shall have first approved the plans and specifications therefor, which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld. All such Leasehold Improvements and alterations (including Minor Work) shall be constructed and installed by Tenant at Tenant’s expense, using a licensed contractor first approved by Landlord (except such approval shall not be required for Minor Work), in substantial compliance with the approved plans and specifications therefor (if such plans and specifications are required hereunder) and in strict accordance with all Laws and Private Restrictions. All such construction and installation shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner using new materials (or such other materials as Landlord shall expressly permit in writing) of good quality. Tenant shall not commence construction of any Leasehold Improvements or alterations until (i) all required governmental approvals and permits shall have been obtained, (ii) all requirements regarding insurance imposed by this Lease shall have been satisfied, and (iii) Tenant shall have given Landlord at least five (5) days’ prior written notice of its intention to commence such construction. The term “Minor Work,” as used herein, shall mean any construction or Leasehold Improvements or alteration of the Leased Premises not involving any structural change or change in the character of the improvements, and involving a cost of less than one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), provided that, for purposes of determining such cost, multiple construction or alteration projects shall be aggregated to the extent they are related to each other, whether undertaken simultaneously or sequentially. Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s requests for approval under this Paragraph 5.1 promptly (and immediately in the event of emergency) and in any event within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of such request. All Leasehold Improvements shall remain the property of Tenant during the Lease Term but shall not be damaged, altered or removed from the Leased Premises. At the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term, all Leasehold Improvements shall be surrendered to Landlord as a part of the realty and shall then become Landlord’s property, and Landlord shall have no obligation to reimburse Tenant for all or any portion of the value or cost thereof; provided, however, that if Landlord shall require Tenant to remove any Leasehold Improvements in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 15.1, then Tenant shall so remove such Leasehold Improvements prior to the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term.
Landlord's Improvements All fixtures, improvements or equipment which are installed, constructed on or attached to the Premises or Common Area by Landlord shall be a part of the realty and belong to Landlord.
Ownership of Improvements All modifications, alterations and improvements made or added to the Leased Premises by Tenant (other than Tenant’s inventory, equipment, movable furniture, wall decorations and trade fixtures) shall be deemed real property and a part of the Leased Premises, but shall remain the property of Tenant during the Lease, and Tenant hereby covenants and agrees not to grant a security interest in any such items to any party other than Landlord. Any such modifications, alterations or improvements, once completed, shall not be altered or removed from the Leased Premises during the Lease Term without Landlord’s written approval first obtained in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 6.1 above. At the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, all such modifications, alterations and improvements other than Tenant’s inventory, equipment, movable furniture, wall decorations and trade fixtures, shall automatically become the property of Landlord and shall be surrendered to Landlord as part of the Leased Premises as required pursuant to Article 2, unless Landlord shall require Tenant to remove any of such modifications, alterations or improvements in accordance with the provisions of Article 2, in which case Tenant shall so remove same. Landlord shall have no obligations to reimburse Tenant for all or any portion of the cost or value of any such modifications, alterations or improvements so surrendered to Landlord. All modifications, alterations or improvements which are installed or constructed on or attached to the Leased Premises by Landlord and/or at Landlord’s expense shall be deemed real property and a part of the Leased Premises and shall be property of Landlord. All lighting, plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilating and air conditioning fixtures, partitioning, window coverings, wall coverings and floor coverings installed by Tenant shall be deemed improvements to the Leased Premises and not trade fixtures of Tenant.
Alterations and Improvements Tenant shall have the right at any time throughout the term of this Lease and any extensions hereof, to make or cause to be made, any alterations, additions, or improvements, or install or cause to be installed any trade fixture, signs, floor covering, interior or exterior painting or lighting, plumbing fixtures, shades or awnings, as Tenant may deem necessary or suitable with Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term of this Lease, Tenant shall have the option to remove such alterations, decorations, additions or improvements made by it, provided any damage to Premises resulting from such removal is repaired. Also, upon the expiration of the Initial Term of this Lease, Tenant if requested by Landlord shall remove any signs and repair any damages to the Premises resulting from such removal. During the term, Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions, improvements, non-cosmetic changes or other material changes to the Premises without the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Minor Alterations (as defined below) without Landlord’s prior written consent. Minor Alterations, as used herein, shall be defined as any alterations, improvements, etc. made to the Premises (excluding the facade thereof) which do not affect the structure of the buildings, their systems or equipment. If Landlord approves any alterations, additions, improvements, etc., Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, along with Landlord’s approval notice, of whether Tenant shall, upon termination of this Lease, either: (i) remove any such alterations or additions and repair any damage to the Premises (or the buildings in which the Premises are located) occasioned by their installation or removal and restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the time when any such alterations or additions were made, or (ii) reimburse Landlord for the cost of removing such alterations or additions and the restoration of the Premises.
Inventions and Improvements During the term of his employment, Executive shall promptly communicate to Company all ideas, discoveries and inventions which are or may be useful to Company or its business. Executive acknowledges that all ideas, discoveries, inventions, and improvements which are made, conceived, or reduced to practice by him and every item of knowledge relating to Company's business interests (including potential business interests) gained by him during his employment hereunder are the property of Company, and Executive hereby irrevocably assigns all such ideas, discoveries, inventions, improvements, and knowledge to Company for its sole use and benefit, without additional compensation. The provisions of this Section shall apply whether such ideas, discoveries, inventions, improvements or knowledge are conceived, made or gained by him alone or with others, whether during or after usual working hours, whether on or off the job, whether applicable to matters directly or indirectly related to Company's business interests (including potential business interests), and whether or not within the specific realm of his duties. It shall be conclusively presumed that ideas, inventions, and improvements relating to Company's business interests or potential business interests conceived during the two (2) years following termination of employment are, for the purposes of this Agreement, conceived prior to termination of employment. Executive shall, upon request of Company, but at no expense to Executive, at any time during or after his employment with Company, sign all instruments and documents requested by Company and otherwise cooperate with Company to protect its right to such ideas, discoveries, inventions, improvements, and knowledge, including applying for, obtaining, and enforcing patents and copyrights thereon in any and all countries.
Removal of Improvements Except as otherwise expressly agreed to by Lessor and Lessee, Lessee shall have the right to remove all Tank Farm Assets and other improvements, fixtures, equipment, materials, supplies and personal property installed by Lessee from the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, but in no event later than the date that is 120 days following the expiration or termination of this Lease (the “Removal Date”) and Lessor shall provide Lessee with access to the Premises at reasonable times until expiration of the Removal Date for the purpose of removing such items. Lessee shall provide Lessor with written notice of its election to remove the Tank Farm Assets and other improvements, fixtures, equipment, materials, supplies and personal property from the Premises at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the Lease. If Lessee elects to remove the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises after such removal Lessee shall restore any damage to the Premises and clean the Premises so as to eliminate therefrom any accumulation (other than any de minimis and non-hazardous accumulation) of foreign substances, materials, or debris, in addition to any Environmental Cleanup that may be required under Article 10. Lessee shall pay Lessor pro rata Rent (based on the amount of Rent applicable during the last month prior to the termination or expiration) through the date of Lessee’s complete removal of all such items. During the period of such removal and clean-up, all terms and conditions of this Lease, including, the indemnity and insurance provisions shall continue in full force and effect. If Lessee elects not to remove all of the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises on or before the Removal Date, and provided that such facilities are in good working condition at the expiration of the Term (ordinary wear and tear excepted) then, such Tank Farm Assets and Improvements shall be deemed permanently abandoned to Lessor’s sole ownership, and Lessor may remove and dispose of such facilities in any manner which Lessor may deem appropriate, without any liability whatsoever to Lessee. If Lessee elects not to remove all of the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises on or before the Removal Date and such facilities are not in good working condition at the expiration of the term (ordinary wear and tear excepted), or Lessee fails to so remove any or all of the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises before the Removal Date, then, in addition to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity, without any prior notice, Lessor may (but shall be under no obligation), at Lessor’s option, deem such Tank Farm Assets and Improvements to be permanently abandoned to Lessor’s sole ownership, and Lessor may remove and dispose of such facilities in any manner which Lessor may deem appropriate, without any liability whatsoever to Lessee, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for all costs of such removal and disposal upon demand from Lessor. If requested by Lessor, Lessee shall execute any and all documents necessary to evidence that title to the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements that Lessee does not remove by the Removal Date is in Lessor and to extinguish and remove any cloud or potential cloud on the title to the Premises and/or such facilities created by Lessee.
