Construction and Maintenance There are on-going maintenance, renovation and construction projects taking place in and around the residences. The work typically takes place during regular business hours, but may begin earlier or extend into evenings or weekends. On-going construction or renovation projects will continue through midterm and final exam periods. The University will take measures to ensure that prudent construction practices are followed, but there may be noise, dust and temporary interruption of some services. Residents may be required to temporarily or permanently relocate to facilitate construction or renovation to their residence area. There will be no compensation or reduction to your residence fees due to disruption and/or relocation.

(c) If Tenant shall be in default under any of the provisions of this Section 9, Landlord may, after thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant and failure of Tenant to cure during said period unless such default is of such a nature that it cannot with reasonable diligence be cured within said period, then the cure period shall be extended by such period as may be required with the application of reasonable diligence to cure the default, but without notice in the event of an emergency, do whatever is necessary to cure such default as may be appropriate under the circumstances for the account of and at the expense of Tenant. If an emergency exists, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to notify Tenant of the situation by phone or other available communication before taking any such action to cure such default. All reasonable sums so paid by Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) so incurred, together with interest at the Lease Default Rate from the date of payment or incurring of the expense, shall constitute Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand.

If an emergency exists, Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to notify Landlord of the situation by phone or other available communication before taking any such action to cure such default. All reasonable sums so paid by Tenant and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) so incurred, together with interest at the Lease Default Rate from the date of payment or incurring of the expense, shall constitute amounts payable by Landlord under this Lease and shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant on demand.
(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall additionally perform, at its cost and expense, all maintenance, repair, and replacement obligations hereunder relating to any of the Building’s systems, the Building’s elevators, the Utility Infrastructure, or the Critical Fixtures and Equipment. In addition, in connection with Tenant’s maintenance, repair, and replacement obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall at its own cost and expense enter into regularly scheduled preventative maintenance service contracts, with vendors, approved by Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, for servicing all Building systems, Utility Infrastructure, elevators, and Critical Fixtures and Equipment.

LANDLORD’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Subject to Section 7.1 and Article XI, Landlord shall provide service, maintenance and repair with respect to any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises (exclusive, however, of supplemental HVAC equipment serving only the Premises), and shall maintain in good repair the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (including exterior glass), and the structural, electrical and mechanical systems, except that Tenant at its expense shall make all repairs which Landlord deems reasonably necessary as a result of the act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, subtenants or contractors. Landlord shall have the right to employ or designate any reputable person or firm, including any employee or agent of Landlord or any of Landlord's affiliates or divisions, to perform any service, repair or maintenance function. Landlord need not make any other improvements or repairs except as specifically required under this Lease, and nothing contained in this Section shall limit Landlord's right to reimbursement from Tenant for maintenance, repair costs and replacement costs as provided elsewhere in this Lease. Tenant understands that it shall not make repairs at Landlord's expense or by rental offset. Tenant further understands that Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs to the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (excluding exterior glass), or structural, electrical or mechanical systems unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord in writing of the need for such repair and Landlord shall have a reasonable period of time thereafter to commence and complete said repair, if warranted. All costs of any maintenance, repairs and replacement on the part of Landlord provided hereunder shall be considered part of Project Costs. Tenant further agrees that if Tenant fails to report any such need for repair in writing within sixty (60) days of its discovery by Tenant, Tenant shall be responsible for any costs and expenses and other damages related to such repair which are in excess of those which would have resulted had such need for repair been reported to Landlord within such sixty (60) day period.

Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any expense, injury, loss or damage resulting from work done in or upon, or in connection with the use of, any adjacent or nearby building, land, street or alley.
TENANT’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Tenant at its sole expense shall comply with all applicable laws and governmental regulations governing the Premises and make all repairs necessary to keep the Premises in the condition as existed on the Commencement Date (or on any later date that the improvements may have been installed), excepting ordinary wear and tear, including without limitation the electrical and mechanical systems, any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises, all walls, glass, windows, doors, door closures, hardware, fixtures, electrical, plumbing, fire extinguisher equipment and other equipment. Any damage or deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed ordinary wear and tear if the same could have been prevented by good maintenance practices by Tenant. As part of its maintenance obligations hereunder, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, provide Landlord with copies of all maintenance schedules, reports and notices prepared by, for or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall obtain preventive maintenance contracts from a licensed heating and air conditioning contractor to provide for regular inspection and maintenance of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems servicing the Premises, all subject to Landlord’s approval. All repairs shall be at least equal in quality to the original work, shall be made only by a licensed contractor approved in writing in advance by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall be made only at the time or times approved by Landlord. Any contractor utilized by Tenant shall be subject to Landlord’s standard requirements for contractors, as modified from time to time. Landlord shall have the right at all times (upon at least 24 hours’ prior notice) to inspect Tenant’s maintenance of all equipment (including without limitation air conditioning, ventilating and heating equipment), and may impose reasonable restrictions and requirements with respect to repairs, as provided in Section 7.3, and the provisions of Section 7.4 shall apply to all repairs. Alternatively, Landlord may elect to make any repair or maintenance required hereunder on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred upon submission of an invoice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.1, in the event Tenant’s obligation for compliance with all applicable laws and governmental regulations, or making repairs, results in a capital improvement on Tenant’s part (or Tenant’s being obligated to reimburse Landlord for a capital improvement), Tenant shall only be responsible for the amortized cost of such capital improvement (amortized at a market cost of funds as reasonably determined by Landlord) over the useful life of such improvements during the Term (except in the event obligation for any such capital improvement is required due to Tenant’s particular use of the Premises, in which case Tenant shall be fully responsible for the entire cost and installation of such capital improvement).
Common Area Maintenance Landlord will maintain or cause to be maintained the Common Areas and Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Tenant’s prorata share of the cost of such maintenance as hereinafter provided.
(a) Common area maintenance costs and expenses shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and allocated to any particular calendar year on the accrual method of accounting. Such costs and expenses shall include, but shall not be limited to upkeep, exterior painting, repairs, replacements and improvements in the Common Areas, snow removal, sweeping and cleanup, depreciation allowance on any machinery and equipment owned by Landlord and used in connection therewith, utility services including fire line water service charges, premiums for public liability, property damage and fire insurance including the Common Areas, any real estate tax and/or tax consultant expense incurred for the purpose of maintaining equitable tax assessments on the Development, all property taxes or assessments levied or assessed against all Common Areas, which, if not separately assessed, shall be determined, for land, by the ratio of land area designated for Common Area use to the total land area in the Development and, for improvements, on a fair and equitable allocation among the various improvements in the Development, giving weight to the factors which determine the amount of the real property tax or assessment in question. In addition, such costs shall include administrative costs equal to ten percent (10%) of the total cost paid or incurred by Landlord under this paragraph.
(b) Tenant shall pay as additional rent to Landlord, Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses in the following manner:
(1) From and after the date the minimum rental provided for herein has commenced, but subject to adjustment as hereinafter in this subparagraph (1) provided, Tenant shall pay Landlord in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease an estimated and adjustable amount covering Tenant’s proportionate share of common area services and expenses, which amount may be adjusted by Landlord by notice to Tenant at the end of any calendar month on the basis of Landlord’s experience and reasonably anticipated costs. (See Lease Rider “A” Building Expenses attached hereto and incorporated herein.)
(2) Within thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement covering the calendar year just expired, showing the total operating costs, the amount of Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses for such calendar year and the payments made by Tenant with respect to such calendar year as set forth in subparagraph (b) I. If Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses exceeds Tenant’s payments so made, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within ten (10) days after receipt of such statement. If said payments exceed Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses, Tenant shall be entitled to offset the excess against payments next thereafter to become due Landlord as set forth in said subparagraph (b) I. Tenant’s pro-rata share of the total Common Area expenses for the previous calendar year shall be that portion of all such expenses which is equal to the proportion which the number of square feet of gross leasable area in the Demised Premises bears to the total number of square feet of gross leasable area of buildings in the entire Development which are from time to time completed and occupied as of the commencement of each calendar year.
