Option to Lease The Receiver hereby grants to the Assuming Institution an exclusive option for the period of ninety (90) days commencing the day after Bank Closing to cause the Receiver to assign to the Assuming Institution any or all leases for leased Bank Premises, if any, which have been continuously occupied by the Assuming Institution from Bank Closing to the date it elects to accept an assignment of the leases with respect thereto to the extent such leases can be assigned; provided, that the exercise of this option with respect to any lease must be as to all premises or other property subject to the lease. If an assignment cannot be made of any such leases, the Receiver may, in its discretion, enter into subleases with the Assuming Institution containing the same terms and conditions provided under such existing leases for such leased Bank Premises or other property. The Assuming Institution shall give notice to the Receiver within the option period of its election to accept or not to accept an assignment of any or all leases (or enter into subleases or new leases in lieu thereof). The Assuming Institution agrees to assume all leases assigned (or enter into subleases or new leases in lieu thereof) pursuant to this Section 4.6. If the Assuming Institution gives notice of its election not to accept an assignment of a lease for one or more of the leased Bank Premises within seven (7) days of Bank Closing, then, not withstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Assuming Institution shall not be liable for any of the costs or fees associated with appraisals for the Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment located on such leased Bank Premises.
Exercise of Option The Over-allotment Option granted pursuant to Section 1.2.1 hereof may be exercised by the Representative as to all (at any time) or any part (from time to time) of the Option Units within 45 days after the Effective Date. The Underwriters will not be under any obligation to purchase any Option Units prior to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option. The Over-allotment Option granted hereby may be exercised by the giving of oral notice to the Company by the Representative, which must be confirmed in writing by overnight mail or facsimile transmission setting forth the number of Option Units to be purchased and the date and time for delivery of and payment for the Option Units (the "Option Closing Date"), which will not be later than five full business days after the date of the notice or such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative, at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative. Upon exercise of the Over-allotment Option, the Company will become obligated to convey to the Underwriters, and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters will become obligated to purchase, the number of Option Units specified in such notice.
Taxation upon Exercise of Option Optionee understands that, upon exercise of this Option, Optionee will recognize income, for Federal and state income tax purposes, in an amount equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the Shares, determined as of the date of exercise, exceeds the Exercise Price. The acceptance of the Shares by Optionee shall constitute an agreement by Optionee to report such income in accordance with then applicable law and to cooperate with Company in establishing the amount of such income and corresponding deduction to the Company for its income tax purposes. Withholding for federal or state income and employment tax purposes will be made, if and as required by law, from Optionee’s then current compensation, or, if such current compensation is insufficient to satisfy withholding tax liability, the Company may require Optionee to make a cash payment to cover such liability as a condition of the exercise of this Option.
Exercise of Purchase Option AIR shall have an option (an “Option”) to acquire any real property owned or leased (subject to any consent rights granted to the landlord under any lease under which DevCo or an Affiliate is the tenant, provided, however, that no Option will apply to any Leased Property that is then leased to DevCo or its Affiliates pursuant to a Master Lease) by DevCo or any of its Subsidiaries, which was originally acquired by DevCo or its Subsidiaries after the Effective Date, which had not achieved Stabilization as of such acquisition but which has subsequently achieved Stabilization (each, an “Option Property”). Within fifteen (15) days following the date on which Stabilization for an Option Property has been achieved, DevCo shall send AIR a written notice advising AIR that such Option Property has reached Stabilization (an “Option Notice”), upon receipt of which AIR will have sixty (60) days (the “Option Exercise Period”) to exercise its Option to purchase such Option Property by delivering to DevCo written notice of the same. If AIR timely delivers a written notice to DevCo that it intends to exercise its Option and proceed with the acquisition of the Option Property, AIR will pay to DevCo the Current FMV for the subject Option Property, and the Parties will close on such Option pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement, which shall be in the form attached to the form of Standard Lease (which is attached hereto as Exhibit A). The Parties shall apply the closing mechanics set forth in Section 10(b) above (as if the Option Property were a ROFO Property, for such purposes). In the event DevCo fails to timely deliver an Option Notice to AIR, then, within thirty (30) days following the date on which AIR becomes aware that Stabilization of the subject Option Property has occurred, AIR shall have the right to send an Option Notice to DevCo (notifying DevCo that AIR believes the subject Option Property has reached Stabilization), and the Option Exercise Period will commence as of the date of such Option Notice. In the event that a Party receiving an Option Notice disputes that Stabilization of the subject Option Property has occurred or is continuing as of the date of such Option Notice, such Party will send to the other Party a Dispute Notice (as defined in and pursuant to Section 18(b)) containing an explanation of such dispute within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of the Option Notice. The Parties shall endeavor to resolve the dispute, and, if they are unable to so resolve it, will proceed to arbitration to resolve such dispute, all in accordance with the terms of Section 18.

b. This Option shall be exercisable only in the event that and to the extent that such Option has become vested and exercisable pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.b (or Sections 7 or 8 below, if applicable). Subject to the earlier termination of this Option pursuant to its terms and to the terms of the Option Plan, this Option shall vest and become exercisable as follows, but only if the Optionee is then an employee of or continues to provide services to the Company or an Affiliate at the specified time:
(i) Up to twenty percent (20%) of such Option Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) may be purchased at any time after one (1) year from the Grant Date and prior to the termination of this Option;
(ii) Up to forty percent (40%) of such Option Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share and less any shares previously purchased pursuant to this Option that vest pursuant to this Section 3.b) may be purchased at any time after two (2) years from the Grant Date and prior to the termination of this Option;
(iii) Up to sixty percent (60%) of such Option Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share and less any shares previously purchased pursuant to this Option that vest pursuant to this Section 3.b) may be purchased at any time after three (3) years from the Grant Date and prior to the termination of this Option;
(iv) Up to eighty percent (80%) of such Option Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share and less any shares previously purchased pursuant to this Option that vest pursuant to this Section 3.b) may be purchased at any time after four (4) years from the Grant Date and prior to the termination of this Option;
(v) Up to 100% of such Option Shares (less any shares previously purchased pursuant to this Option that vest pursuant to this Section 3.b) may be purchased at any time after five (5) years from the Grant Date and prior to the termination of this Option.
c. To exercise this Option, the Optionee shall satisfy the following conditions: (i) deliver written notice to the Company at its principal office within the option period, which written notice must be in the form of attached Exhibit A to this Agreement, and (ii) deliver payment in full for the Option Shares with respect to which this Option is then being exercised, as provided in Section 4(a) below.
d. Neither the Optionee nor the Optionee’s legal representatives, legatees or distributees, as the case may be, will be, or will be deemed to be, a holder of any Option Shares for any purpose unless and until certificates for such Option Shares are issued (or are reflected upon the official records of the Company) to the Optionee or the Optionee’s legal representatives, legatees or distributees, under the terms of the Option Plan.
OPTION TO RENEW Provided Tenant is not, and has not been (more than two (2) times), in default under any of the terms and conditions contained herein, Tenant shall have two (2) additional consecutive five (5) year options to renew and extend the Rental Term as provided herein (“Option”). The Option shall only be exercised by Tenant delivering written notice thereof to Landlord no earlier than the date which is twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Rental Term and no later than the date which is nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Rental Term (the “Option Notice”). The Base Monthly Rent during the first year of each extension periods shall be the lesser of: (i) the then current Fair Market Rate (as defined) for comparable space within the Project, and (ii) the Base Monthly Rent then in effect for the Leased Premises during the last month of the initial Rental Term (increasing each year thereafter by 3%, compounded). “Fair Market Rate” means the market rate for rent chargeable for the Leased Premises based upon the following factors applicable to the Leased Premises or any comparable premises: rent, escalation, term, size, expense stop, tenant allowance, existing tenant finishes, parking availability, and location and proximity to services. Within thirty (30) days of Option Notice, Tenant shall notify Landlord of Tenant’s option of Fair Market Rate for the applicable renewal period. If Landlord disagrees with Tenant’s opinion of the Fair Market Rate, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s opinion of Fair Market Rate within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Tenant’s opinion of Fair Market Rate (“Landlord’s Value Notice”). If the parties are unable to resolve their differences within thirty (30) days thereafter, Landlord or Tenant, at its sole option, may terminate this Lease, effective as of the last day of the then-current Rental Term. Alternatively, Tenant and Landlord may mutually agree to submit the determination of Fair Market Rate to a “Market Assessment Process,” as provided in Exhibit “F” – Market Assessment Process.
Option to Build If the dates designated by Developer are not acceptable to Connecting Transmission Owner, the Connecting Transmission Owner shall so notify the Developer and NYISO within thirty (30) Calendar Days, and unless the Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner agree otherwise, Developer shall have the option to assume responsibility for the design, procurement and construction of Connecting Transmission Owner’s Attachment Facilities and Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities on the dates specified in Article 5.1.2; provided that if an Attachment Facility or Stand Alone System Upgrade Facility is needed for more than one Developer’s project, Developer’s option to build such Facility shall be contingent on the agreement of all other affected Developers. NYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner and Developer must agree as to what constitutes Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities and identify such Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities in Appendix A hereto. Except for Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities, Developer shall have no right to construct System Upgrade Facilities under this option.
Manner of Exercise of Option (a) To the extent that the right to exercise the Option has accrued and is in effect, the Option may be exercised in full or in part by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full for such Shares. No partial exercise may be made for less than one hundred (100) full Shares of Common Stock. Payment shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Upon such exercise, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non- assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the person exercising the Option, not less than thirty (30) and not more than ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
(b) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep available such number of Shares of its Common Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Option.
Exercise of Stock Option (a) The Optionee may exercise this Option only in the following manner: from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Option, the Optionee may give written notice to the Board of Directors or its authorized committee (the “Administrator”) of his or her election to purchase some or all of the vested Option Shares purchasable at the time of such notice. This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be purchased. Payment of the Stock Option purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more of the following methods: (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Administrator; (ii) in the form of shares of Stock that are not then subject to restrictions under any Company plan and that have been held by the Optionee for at least six months prior to the exercise date; or (iii) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Administrator to pay the Stock Option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay the Stock Option purchase price as so provided in this subsection (iii), the Optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure. Payment instruments will be received subject to collection. The delivery of certificates representing the Option Shares will be contingent upon the Company’s receipt from the Optionee of full payment for the Option Shares, as set forth above and any agreement, statement or other evidence that the Administrator may require to satisfy itself that the issuance of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Options under the Plan and any subsequent resale of the shares of Stock will be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
(b) Certificates for shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of this Stock Option shall be issued and delivered to the Optionee upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Administrator with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such issuance and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination of the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the Optionee. The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of the shares subject to this Stock Option, or to have any of the rights of a holder, unless and until this Stock Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall have issued and delivered the shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee’s name shall have been entered as the stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such shares of Stock.
(c) The minimum number of shares with respect to which this Stock Option may be exercised at any one time shall be 100 shares, unless the number of shares with respect to which this Stock Option is being exercised is the total number of shares subject to exercise under this Stock Option at the time.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion of this Stock Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date hereof.
Exercise of Repurchase Option The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by written notice signed by an officer of the Company or by any assignee or assignees of the Company and delivered or mailed as provided in Section 17(a). Such notice shall identify the number of shares of Stock to be purchased and shall notify Purchaser of the time, place and date for settlement of such purchase, which shall be scheduled by the Company within the term of the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 2(a) above. The Company shall be entitled to pay for any shares of Stock purchased pursuant to its Repurchase Option, at the Company's option, in cash or by offset against any indebtedness owing to the Company by Purchaser, or by a combination of both. Upon delivery of such notice and payment of the purchase price in any of the ways described above, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Stock being repurchased and all rights and interest therein or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the Stock being repurchased by the Company, without further action by Purchaser.
