After hours HVAC shall be provided by Landlord upon request of Tenant, so long as all costs of providing such after hours service, as reasonably estimated by Landlord, are borne by Tenant. Irrespective of the foregoing, as to each whole floor occupied by Tenant, in lieu of Saturday HVAC hours, Tenant shall be provided with three hundred (300) free hours of HVAC service per year (pro rated for the first and last lease years) at such times as Tenant may request; however, there shall be no carry over of any unused free hours from one calendar year to the next. Chilled fluid lines shall be available in the Building to permit Tenant to obtain supplemental air conditioning on a twenty-four (24) hour basis, but Tenant shall be responsible for all installation and energy costs associated therewith;
(c) provide sufficient elevator service for reasonable access to the Demised Premises;
(d) furnish reasonable janitorial services for the Demised Premises;
(e) furnish a reasonable amount of electricity for normal office use in the Demised Premises; however, Landlord's agreement to furnish electricity does not include electricity for electrical equipment requiring voltage greater than that supplied by the Building's standard receptacle circuits unless Landlord's prior written consent is obtained, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld so long as Tenant is responsible for all costs of installation and which consent shall be deemed to have been granted if such requirement is contained in Exhibits! C or C-l of this Lease;
(f) furnish in the first floor lobby of the Building a directory of the firm or business names of tenants of the Building: and
(g) provide access to hookups to any public or private right-of-ways adjacent to the Land for utilities or other communications systems available to Landlord or Tenant and accessible by Tenant by air or underground at Tenant's sole cost and expense
6.02. If Landlord defaults in the performance or observance of any provision of Paragraph 6.01 (except to the extent permitted under Paragraph 6.04), Tenant shall give Landlord notice specifying in what manner Landlord has defaulted and if such default shall not be cured by Landlord within the period of time provided for elsewhere in this Lease, and otherwise within thirty (30) consecutive days after the delivery of such notice (except that if such default cannot be cured within said thirty (30) day period, this period shall be extended for a reasonable additional time, provided that Landlord commences to cure such default within the thirty (30) day period and proceeds diligently thereafter to effect such cure), Tenant may terminate this Lease or pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity to Tenant; provided, however, that if the Demised Premises is not supplied with utilities required pursuant to the terms of this Lease due to circumstances within the control of Landlord for a period in excess of 24 hours after of receipt by Landlord of Tenant's verbal notice of such failure, Tenant may terminate this Lease or pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity. No such termination shall relieve Landlord of its obligations under the Lease, and such obligations shall survive any such termination. No action on the part of Tenant shall limit or prejudice the right of Tenant to obtain the maximum amount of damages allowed by any statute or rule of law related to any such default by Landlord.
6.03. If, in Landlord's opinion, any Tenant shall:
(a) use any utility, including but not limited to electricity or water, in an excessive, extravagant or unreasonable manner, Landlord may install meters measuring the quantity of such utility used in the Demised Premises and Tenant, on demand, shall pay Landlord (i) all costs incident to said installation and necessary appurtenances thereto and (ii) additional rent equal to the cost of the utility used at rates equal to the rate that the supplying utility company with its own equipment would then charge Tenant for such service. If this method of furnishing utilities to Tenant is utilized, an adjustment will be made to Operating Expenses under Section 5.02 to reflect Tenant's payment of its own utilities in such a manner as to avoid requiring Tenant to pay more than the excess utilities and its ratable share of normal utilities usage included in Operating Expenses; and
(b) require removal of refuse and rubbish in larger quantities or more often than is reasonable in the rendering of janitorial service, Tenant on demand shall pay the removal cost to Landlord.
(c) No action will be taken by Landlord under Section 6.03(a) or 6.03

Building Services 7.01 Landlord shall furnish Tenant with the following services: (a) hot and cold water for use in the Base Building lavatories and drinking purposes; (b) customary heat and air conditioning in season during Building Service Hours (, although (i) Tenant shall have the right to receive HVAC service during hours other than Building Service Hours by paying Landlord’s then standard charge for additional HVAC service and providing such prior notice as is reasonably specified by Landlord (Landlord’s current charge for afterhours HVAC is $60 per hour, subject to change by Landlord from time to time), and (ii) if Tenant is permitted to connect any supplemental HVAC units to the Building’s condenser water loop or chilled water line, such permission shall be conditioned upon Landlord having adequate excess capacity from time to time and such connection and use shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval and reasonable restrictions imposed by Landlord, and Landlord shall have the right to charge Tenant a connection fee and/or a monthly usage fee, as reasonably determined by Landlord; (c) standard janitorial service on Business Days; (d) unattended elevator service; (e) electricity in accordance with the terms and conditions in Section 7.02; (f) access to the Building for Tenant and its employees 24 hours per day/7 days per week, subject to the terms of this Lease and such protective services or monitoring systems, if any, as Landlord may reasonably impose, including, without limitation, sign-in procedures and/or presentation of identification cards; and (g) subject to Section 26.10, such other services as Landlord reasonably determines are necessary or appropriate for the Property. If Landlord, at Tenant’s request, provides any services which are not Landlord’s express obligation under this Lease, including, without limitation, any repairs which are Tenant’s responsibility pursuant to Section 9 below, Tenant shall pay Landlord, or such other party designated by Landlord, the cost of providing such service plus an administrative charge of ten percent (10%), the same to constitute Additional Rent hereunder.
7.02 Electricity used by Tenant in the Premises shall, at Landlord’s option, be paid for by Tenant by a separate, flat-rate charge (except the same may be increased as hereinafter provided in this Section 7.02) payable by Tenant to Landlord monthly with Rent, initially estimated (at the rate of $1.50 per rentable square foot of the Premises) to be in the amount of $1,633.25 per month ($19,599.00 per annum), payable as Additional Rent hereunder. Landlord shall have the right from time to time to reasonably increase such monthly flat-rate amount payable by Tenant hereunder based on actual increases in the cost of electricity (and/or the generation thereof) to Landlord in connection with the Property with no xxxx up by Landlord. Without the consent of Landlord, Tenant’s use of electrical service shall not exceed the Building standard usage of six (6) xxxxx per square foot, as reasonably determined by Landlord, based upon the Building standard electrical design load. Landlord shall have the right to measure electrical usage by commonly accepted methods, including the installation of measuring devices such as submeters and check meters. If it is determined that Tenant is using electricity in such quantities or during such periods as to cause the total cost of Tenant’s electrical usage, on a monthly, per-rentable-square-foot basis, to materially exceed that which Landlord reasonably deems to be standard for the Building, Tenant shall pay Landlord Additional Rent for the cost of such excess electrical usage and, if applicable, for the cost of purchasing and installing the measuring device(s).
7.03 Landlord’s failure to furnish, or any interruption, diminishment or termination of services due to the application of Laws, the failure of any equipment, the performance of maintenance, repairs, improvements or alterations, utility interruptions or the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure (defined in Section 26.03) (collectively a “Service Failure”) shall not render Landlord liable to Tenant, constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant, give rise to an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the Premises is rendered Untenantable (as defined below) solely as a result of the failure of any Essential Service (as defined below) due to Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct and Tenant does not use or occupy the same during said period, then Tenant’s obligation pay Base Rent and Additional Rent hereunder shall be abated in proportion to the portion of the Premises rendered Untenantable until the date on which such Untenantability is cured, provided that such abatement shall not commence until the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date on which Tenant delivers written notice to Landlord of the interruption and an opportunity, within such five (5) Business Day period, to cure same. The rate at which Base Rent or Additional Rent may be abated under this Section 7.03 in any one calendar month shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Base Rent payable for such calendar month, provided that any amount not permitted to be taken as an abatement as a result of such monthly cap shall be credited against the Base Rent or Additional Rent next thereafter due under this Lease, subject to such monthly cap. In the event that the foregoing monthly cap would have the effect of depriving Tenant of any portion of abatement to which it is otherwise entitled hereunder due to the number of calendar months remaining in the term, the monthly cap may be increased proportionately to the extent necessary to avoid such result.
Landlord Services Any services provided by, or on behalf of, Landlord will not prevent any amounts received or accrued from qualifying as "Rents from real property" (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2) or Section 512(b)(3) of the Code).
Subleased Premises Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the conditions set forth herein, the Subleased Premises.
Janitorial Services Tenant will not employ any person for the purpose of cleaning the Premises or permit any person to enter the Building for such purpose other than Landlord's janitorial service, except with Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant will not necessitate, and will be liable for the cost of, any undue amount of janitorial labor by reason of Tenant's carelessness in or indifference to the preservation of good order and cleanliness in the Premises. Janitorial service will not be furnished to areas in the Premises on nights when such areas are occupied after 9:30 p.m., unless such service is extended by written agreement to a later hour in specifically designated areas of the Premises.
Services by Landlord As long as Tenant is not in default hereunder, Landlord agrees to furnish those services and utilities to the Premises, which are customarily provided to tenants in comparable suburban office buildings located in the West Fort Worth area, and which shall specifically include the services listed on Exhibit “G” (attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes). All of such services shall be provided at Landlord’s cost and expense during Normal Business Hours except as specifically provided to the contrary elsewhere in this Lease. Services provided at times other than during Normal Business Hours shall be at Tenant’s cost and expense, with such charges to be established by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, and reimbursed to Landlord on demand. Failure to any extent to furnish or any stoppage of said utilities and services resulting from any cause whatsoever (a “Service Failure”) shall not render Landlord liable in any respect for damages to either person, property or business, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent, nor relieve Tenant from fulfillment of any covenant or agreement contained herein. Should any malfunction of the Building improvements or facilities (which by definition do not include any improvements or facilities of Tenant besides Building standard improvements) occur for any reason (a “Malfunction”), Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to repair same promptly, but Tenant shall have no claim for rebate or abatement of rent or damages on account of such Malfunction or of any Service Failure occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom. Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Malfunction or Service Failure results in the Premises or any material portion thereof not being reasonably usable by Tenant for its business purpose (“Untenantable”) (unless the Service Failure is caused by a fire or other casualty, in which event Paragraph 22 hereof controls) and same remains uncured for a total of 5 consecutive days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s written notice of the Malfunction or Service Failure, Tenant shall have the following rights and remedies:
(a) Effective on the first day after the 5th consecutive day following such Malfunction or Service Failure, Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of Base Rental and Additional Rental commensurate to that portion of the Premises rendered Untenantable by the Malfunction or Service Failure calculated on a per square foot basis and ending at the time the Premises are again suitable for use by Tenant for its intended purposes.
Acceptance of Leased Premises On or before the Possession Date, Tenant and Landlord shall each execute the letter agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Letter Agreement”). By its execution of the Letter Agreement or occupancy of the Leased Premises, Tenant shall be deemed to represent and certify that it has examined the Leased Premises and that it thereby accepts the Leased Premises in its condition at the time, except for the list of defects and/or omissions identified in writing prior to the Possession Date (the “Punch-List”) and latent defects, but subject, in all cases, to Landlord’s repair, maintenance and replacement obligations set forth in this Lease and to the warranty related to the Tenant Improvements, as provided in the Work Letter Agreement. After the notice provided in Section 3.03 and prior to the Possession Date, the parties shall meet in the Leased Premises to establish the Punch-List. Landlord shall review the Punch-List items with Tenant and correct all undisputed Punch- List items within a reasonable time, not to exceed thirty (30) days after receipt of the Punch- List; provided that, if any Punch-List items cannot be corrected within such thirty (30) day period despite reasonable diligence by Landlord, then, so long as Landlord commences correction of such Punch-List items within such thirty (30) day period and diligently pursues such correction to completion, no default by Landlord shall be deemed to have occurred. Punch-List items for completion taking longer than six (6) months to complete (and not otherwise the result of Force Majeure, Tenant Delay, or the COVID-19 Condition) shall trigger a day for day prorated Minimum Monthly Rent abatement. The Tenant Improvements shall be subject to a two (2) year warranty, from the Possession Date, with regard to materials, design and workmanship, as provided in more detail in the Work Letter Agreement. Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord in providing required information as needed for Landlord to pursue vendor warranties on a timely basis, as requested in writing by Landlord. Landlord will pursue any valid warranty claims against its contractor beyond the two (2) year warranty provided that any expenses incurred and/or any recovery obtained shall be treated as either additional Operating Costs or an offset to Operating Costs under Section 5.03(a).
Landlord’s Option to Repair Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, Building and/or Project, in which event this Lease shall terminate, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice will include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but this Lease may be so terminated Landlord may so elect only if the Building or Project shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause, whether or not the Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; (iii) the damage is not fully covered by Landlord’s insurance policies or that portion of the proceeds from Landlord’s insurance policies allocable to the Building or the Project, as the case may be; (iv) Landlord decides to rebuild the Building or Common Areas so that they will be substantially different structurally or architecturally; (v) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term; or (vi) any owner of any other portion of the Project, other than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the Project; provided, however, that if such fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Premises or a portion thereof or Common Areas necessary to Tenant’s occupancy and as a result of such damage the Premises are unfit for occupancy, and provided that Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord’s termination right as provided above, and either (a) the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord’s contractor, be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after being commenced, or (b) the damage occurs during the last twelve months of the Lease Term and will reasonably require in excess of ninety (90) days to repair, Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant.
