Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES a. In the event the Premises are damaged by fire or other perils or casualty covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, repair or rebuild the same within a reasonable time after the event causing such damage. This Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of the rent from the date of damage and while such repairs are being made, such proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which the damage and making of such repairs shall reasonably interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises as determined by Landlord. If the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant or its employees, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, there shall be no reduction of rent. Landlord may authorize or direct construction of an alternative structure or may elect to retain any insurance proceeds received by it if Landlord deems reconstruction or construction of an alternative structure to be impractical or unreasonable in its sole discretion.
b. In the event the Premises are damaged to any extent as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord shall in its sole discretion have the option to: (1.) to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises within a reasonable time of the event causing the damage, in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but the rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided above in 11a. during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration, or (2.) to give notice to Tenant at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage occurs, terminating this Lease as of the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice. In the event of giving to Tenant such notice of termination, this Lease shall terminate and all interests of Tenant in the Premises shall cease on the date so specified in such notice and Tenant shall pay the rent, as proportionately reduced, based upon the extent, if any, to which such damage interfered with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises, up to the date of such termination.
c. With regard to Landlord’s duty or option to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises within a reasonable time of the event causing the damage as provided in 11a. and b. above, Landlord shall act promptly and with due diligence, but Landlord shall not be responsible for delays caused by factors beyond Landlord’s control, including but not limited to delays because of strikes, work slowdowns or stoppages, accidents, acts of God, failure of any governmental or other authority to act in a timely manner, or delays caused by contractors. If such delays occur, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be responsible for damages, nor shall Landlord be deemed to be in default under this Lease.
d. Landlord shall not be required to repair any damage by fire or other casualty, or to make any repair or replacements of any leasehold improvements, fixtures, or other personal property of Tenant.
CONSTRUCTION OF PREMISES A. Lessor agrees that it will supply, at its own expense, its standard office space, as more particularly described and set forth on Exhibit “B” annexed hereto and made a part hereof (“Lessor’s Work”). /s/ Lessor /s/ Lessee
B. Lessee agrees to perform, at its own cost and expense, all work other than Lessor’s Work, including without limitation that work, as particularly described in Exhibit “E” annexed hereto (“Lessee’s Work”), which is necessary to make the Premises conform with Lessee’s plans as approved by Lessor. Within thirty (30) days after the execution of this Lease, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor, for Lessor’s written approval, plans and specifications for the Lessee’s Work, showing a layout, lighting plan, fixturing plan, interior finish and material samples, and any work or equipment to be done or installed by Lessee affecting any structural, mechanical or electrical part of the Premises or the Building. Failure to provide same within said thirty (30) day period shall constitute a default by Lessee under this Lease. Lessor’s failure to disapprove of Lessee’s plans within fifteen (15) days of receipt shall constitute acceptance by Lessor of such plans. Design elements as aforesaid will be displayed in color renderings in such detail as may be sufficient for Lessor’s needs. It is the purpose of this requirement that Lessee’s Premises be fixtured, designed and laid out so as not to be a detriment to the other tenants in the Building and that Lessee’s Work shall not be detrimental to the Building or other tenants therein, and Lessor’s approval of the plans and specifications as aforesaid for Lessee’s Work shall be at the Lessor’s sole discretion. Lessee agrees and acknowledges that all Lessee’s Work, improvements, alterations or additions performed by Lessee (hereinafter collectively “Alterations”) whether pursuant to this Section or otherwise, shall be carried out in compliance with all Requirements and is performed and accomplished solely for the benefit and convenience of Lessee, and not for the benefit of Lessor, such Alterations being nevertheless subject to each and every of the provisions of this Lease,.
Landlord’s Default Subject to Landlord's right to dispute its obligation in accordance with Section 5.1.5(b), if Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, and any such default shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after Notice thereof with respect to monetary defaults, and thirty (30) days after Notice thereof with respect to non-monetary defaults, from Tenant to Landlord and, subject to Section 19.3, any applicable Facility Mortgagee, or such additional period as may be reasonably required to correct such non-monetary defaults, Tenant may declare the occurrence of a "Landlord Default" under this Agreement by giving Notice of such declaration to Landlord and to such Facility Mortgagee. Thereafter, Tenant may (but shall have no obligation to) cure the same and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, paralegals' fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same. If any such costs and expenses have not been reimbursed to Tenant as of the fifth (5th) day after the Landlord receives Tenant's Notice therefor, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, a late charge computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such reimbursement from the expiration of the applicable cure period to the date of payment thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder or under the Other Leases and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder. If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof; provided, however, that in the event of any such adverse determination, Landlord shall pay to Tenant interest on any disputed funds at the Disbursement Rate, from the date demand for such funds was made by Tenant until the date of final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Overdue Rate until paid. During the term of the Operating Agreement, Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant harmless against all claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees) arising from a Landlord Default under the terms and conditions of this Agreement which shall cause an Event of Default under Section 16.01 of the Operating Agreement or a breach by Landlord of its obligations under the Owner Agreement or the Pooling Agreement. The provisions of this Section 14.2 shall survive the termination, expiration or cancellation of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years.
Landlord Work Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, concurrently with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, remove the existing demising wall and construct a Building standard demising wall at the Expansion Premises, which shall include studs, acoustical insulation and dry wall ready for finish on the Tenant side only and any necessary penetrations, fire dampers and sound traps (collectively, the “Demising Wall”), which Demising Wall shall be adjacent to the Expansion Premises as set forth on Exhibit A to this Amendment (collectively, the “Landlord Work”). Tenant may not change or alter the Landlord Work. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete the Landlord Work no later than forty-five (45) days after the Expansion Delivery Date. In addition, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to the extent required in order to allow Tenant to obtain a certificate of occupancy, or its legal equivalent, for the Expansion Premises for general office use assuming a normal and customary office occupancy density, cause the Landlord Work and the Building Common Areas (including the Base Building restrooms on the seventh (7th) floor of the Building), to comply with applicable building codes and other governmental laws, ordinances and regulations related to handicap access, which were enacted and enforced as of the date of this Amendment. Because Landlord shall be constructing the Landlord Work concurrently with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, there will be a certain “overlap” period pursuant to which both Landlord’s representatives, employees, vendors and contractors and Tenant’s representatives, employees, vendors and contractors may be present and performing work in a portion of the Premises. During any such “overlap” period(s) when both parties and/or their respective employees, vendors, contractors or consultants are concurrently performing work in, or accessing, any portion of the Premises, neither party shall unreasonably interfere with or delay the work of the other party and/or its contractors or consultants, and both parties shall mutually coordinate and cooperate with each other, and shall cause their respective employees, vendors, contractors, and consultants to work in harmony with and to mutually coordinate and cooperate with the other’s employees, vendors, contractors and consultants, respectively, to minimize any interference or delay by either party with respect to the other party’s work. In addition, Landlord shall, and shall cause the other Landlord Parties to, use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant’s operations in the Existing Premises. Landlord shall have no obligation to move any furniture or other personal property of Tenant in the performance of Landlord Work. Tenant hereby agrees that the construction of the Landlord Work shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Lease (including this Tenant Work Letter), Landlord shall have no responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from the Landlord Work, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of Tenant’s personal property or improvements resulting from the Landlord Work or Landlord’s actions in connection with the Landlord Work, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by the Landlord Work or Landlord’s actions in connection with the Landlord Work.
Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other casualty. If the Premises or any Common Areas serving or providing access to the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord's reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 1 1, restore the Base Building and such Common Areas. Such restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Base Building and the Common Areas prior to the casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Building or Project or any other modifications to the Common Areas deemed desirable by Landlord, which are consistent with the character of the Project, provided that access to the Premises and any common restrooms serving the Premises shall not be materially impaired. Landlord shall repair any injury or damage to the improvements which exist in the Premises as of the Lease Commencement Date (the "Original Improvements") and shall return such Original Improvements to their original condition. Prior to the commencement of construction, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, for Landlord's review and approval, all plans, specifications and working drawings relating thereto, and Landlord shall select the contractors to perform such improvement work. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant's business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if such fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant's occupancy, and the Premises are not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof, then during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy, the Rent shall be abated in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which is unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises, provided that if the Premises are so damaged that it is not reasonably practicable for Tenant to continue its business operations from any portion of the Premises, then the Rent shall be fully abated during such time.
Expansion of Premises (a) Effective as of the Expansion Date the Premises (and the definition of the “Premises”) shall be modified to mean and include both the Initial Premises and the Expansion Premises. As a result of such expansion, effective upon the Expansion Date, the deemed square footage of the Premises shall be and become 31,684 square feet and Tenant’s Prorata Share and Tenant’s Share of Expenses and Real Estate Taxes shall be one hundred percent (100.00%).
(b) If Landlord, for any reason whatsoever, cannot deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant on before August 1, 2012 for the purpose specified in Section 3(c), this Amendment shall not be void or voidable, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, and Tenant shall have no obligation to pay monthly Base Rent or Additional Charges with respect to the Expansion Premises until the day following the date on which possession of the Expansion Premises is delivered to Tenant (such date thereupon becoming the “Expansion Date” for purposes of this Amendment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord is unable to deliver the Expansion Premises by August 1, 2012 (as extended day-for-day for each day of Force Majeure Delay) (the “Expansion Premises Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant shall have the right, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Amendment to Lease by providing written notice to Landlord within fifteen (15) business days following the Expansion Premises Outside Delivery Date, in which event the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if the parties had not entered into this Amendment and Landlord shall promptly return to Tenant the August, 2012 Base Rent for the Expansion Premises paid by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of Section 6(d). For purposes hereof, the failure of the existing tenant of the Expansion Premises to vacate the Expansion Premises shall not be an event of Force Majeure Delay.
(c) Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall be entitled to early occupancy of the Expansion Premises at any time after the Expansion Premises Delivery Date for the sole purposes of (1) installing Tenant’s furniture and telephone and other communications cabling and (2) performing Tenant’s Expansion Work (defined below), provided that (i) Tenant covenants and agrees that Tenant and Tenant’s employees, agents or contractors will cooperate with Landlord to coordinate the performance and completion of the Landlord’s Expansion Work concurrently with Tenant’s Expansion Work, (ii) Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for delays in completing the Landlord’s Expansion Work which result from, are caused by or arise out of the interference by Tenant or Tenant’s employees, agents or contractors in the performance of the Landlord’s Expansion Work, (iii) Tenant and Tenant’s employees, agents and contractors shall promptly comply with any and all requests made by Landlord or Landlord’s contractor(s) that Tenant remove its property from those areas in or around which Landlord is performing the Landlord’s Expansion Work, and (iv) Landlord shall not be liable for, Tenant hereby waives all claims which Tenant may have against the Landlord Parties, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and defend Landlord against any and all claims or liability for any injury or damage to any person or property in or about the Expansion Premises resulting from or arising out of or in connection with the performance of Tenant’s Expansion Work (except to the extent arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord). Tenant’s early occupancy of the Expansion Premises for the sole purpose provided in this Section shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, provided that (x) the Premises shall not include the Expansion Premises until the Expansion Date, and (y) Tenant shall not be obligated to pay monthly Base Rent or Additional Charges with respect to the Expansion Premises for the period from the Expansion Premises Delivery Date until the Expansion Date.
(d) Within five (5) business days after the Expansion Date, the parties shall execute a letter confirming the Expansion Date and certifying that Tenant has accepted delivery of the Premises, in form substantially similar to EXHIBIT “D” attached to the Lease (the “Expansion Date Memorandum”). Either party’s failure to request execution of, or to execute, the Expansion Date Memorandum shall not in any way alter the Expansion Date.
POSSESSION OF PREMISES Tenant shall not be entitled to possession of the premises designated for lease until the security deposit and first month’s rent (or prorated portion thereof), less any applicable promotional discount, is paid in full and the premises designated for lease is vacated by the prior tenant.
Tenant’s Compliance With Landlord’s Fire and Casualty Insurance Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, comply with all insurance company requirements pertaining to the use of the Premises.
