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).
Events of Tenant’s Default Tenant shall be in default of its obligations under this Lease if any of the following events occur:
Additional Covenants of Tenant If, as result of any application or use by Landlord of all or any part of the Letter of Credit, the amount of the Letter of Credit shall be less than the Letter of Credit Amount, Tenant shall, within five (5) business days thereafter, provide Landlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency (or a replacement letter of credit in the total Letter of Credit Amount), and any such additional (or replacement) letter of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this ARTICLE 27, and if Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the same shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant. Tenant further covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber the Letter of Credit or any part thereof and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance.
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.
