Access to Premises Section 14.1 Tenant shall permit Landlord, Landlord’s agents and public utilities servicing the Building to erect, use and maintain concealed ducts, pipes and conduits in and through the Premises, provided that Landlord will not thereby reduce the rentable area of the Premises, other than to a de minimis extent. Landlord or Landlord’s agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice (except no such prior notice shall be required in case of emergency), which notice may be oral, to examine the same, to show them to prospective purchasers, Mortgagees, Lessors or lessees of the Building and their respective agents and representatives or prospective tenants of the Premises, and to make such repairs, alterations, improvements or additions (a) as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable to the Premises or to any other portion of the Building, or (b) which Landlord may elect to perform following Tenant’s failure to make repairs or perform any work which Tenant is obligated to make or perform under this Lease, or (c) for the purpose of complying with Legal Requirements, and Landlord shall be allowed to take all material into and upon the Premises that may be required therefor without the same constituting an eviction or constructive eviction of Tenant in whole or in part and Fixed Rent and Additional Rent will not be abated while said repairs, alterations, improvements or additions are being made, by reason of loss or interruption of business of Tenant, or otherwise. Section 14.2 If Tenant shall not be present when for any reason entry into the Premises shall be necessary or permissible, Landlord or Landlord’s agents may enter the same without rendering Landlord or such agents liable therefor (if during such entry Landlord or Landlord’s agents shall accord reasonable care to Tenant’s property), and without in any manner affecting this Lease. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be deemed or construed to impose upon Landlord any obligation, responsibility or liability whatsoever for the care, supervision or repair of the Building or any part thereof, other than as herein provided. Section 14.3 Landlord shall have the right from time to time to alter the Building and, without the same constituting an actual or constructive eviction and without incurring any liability to Tenant therefor, to change the arrangement or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets, or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known; provided, however, that Landlord shall not make any permanent alterations which will deny or substantially interfere with Tenant’s access to the Premises from the public areas of the Building. All parts (except surfaces facing the interior of the Premises) of all walls, windows and doors bounding the Premises (including exterior Building walls, exterior core corridor walls, exterior doors and entrances other than doors and entrances solely servicing the Premises), all balconies, terraces and roofs adjacent to the Premises, all space in or adjacent to the Premises used for shafts, stacks, stairways, chutes, pipes, conduits, ducts, fan rooms, heating, air cooling, plumbing and other mechanical facilities, service closets and other Building facilities are not part of the Premises, and Landlord shall have the use thereof, as well as access thereto through the Premises for the purposes of operation, maintenance, alteration and repair. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s access to and use and occupancy of the Premises in connection with any actions by Landlord permitted under this Section 14.3; provided, however, that Landlord shall have no obligation to employ contractors or labor at overtime or other premium pay rates or to incur any other overtime costs or additional expenses whatsoever.
Common Areas Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, and subject to the Rules and Regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided, from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are collectively referred to herein as the “Common Areas”). The Common Areas shall consist of the “Project Common Areas” and the “Building Common Areas.” The term “Project Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portion of the Project designated as such by Landlord or areas within the Project that the occupants of the Building are permitted to utilize pursuant to a recorded declaration and which areas shall be maintained in accordance with the declaration. The term “Building Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portions of the Common Areas located within the Building reasonably designated as such by Landlord. The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the reasonable discretion of Landlord and the use thereof shall be subject to the Rules and Regulations as Landlord may make from time to time. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas, provided that, in connection therewith, Landlord shall perform such closures, alterations, additions or changes in a commercially reasonable manner and, in connection therewith, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any material interference with Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises.
