Landlord’s Options Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to Tenant within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s receipt of a Transfer Notice accompanied by the other information described in Section 12.1, to: (a) permit Tenant to Transfer the Premises; or (b) disapprove (provided, Landlord’s disapproval must be in accordance with Section 12.1 hereof) the Tenant’s Transfer of the Premises and to continue the Lease in full force and effect as to the entire Premises; or (c) in the event of (i) a proposed assignment of the Lease or (ii) a sublease of more than 50% of the Premises (taking into account all sublets in the aggregate) for all or substantially all of the balance of the Term, terminate the Lease as of the proposed effective date of the Transfer set forth in Tenant’s Transfer Notice (a “Recapture”); provided, however, that if Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s intention to Recapture the Premises, Tenant may elect to withdraw its Transfer Notice by written notice of such election delivered to Landlord within ten (10) business days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Recapture notice. If Landlord approves of the proposed Transfer pursuant to Section 12.1 above, Tenant may enter into the proposed Transfer with such proposed Transferee subject to the following conditions: (i) the Transfer shall be on the same terms set forth in the Transfer Notice; and (ii) no Transfer shall be valid and no Transferee shall take possession of the Premises until an executed counterpart of the assignment, sublease or other instrument effecting the Transfer (in the form approved by Landlord) has been delivered to Landlord pursuant to which the Transferee shall expressly assume all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease applicable to that portion of the Premises then being transferred (provided that, for a subtenant, the rental obligations shall be governed by the terms of the applicable sublease). If Landlord exercises its option to terminate this Lease (or in the case of a partial sublet to release Tenant with respect to a portion of the Premises) as provided above, Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises on the proposed effective date of the Transfer set forth in Tenant’s Transfer Notice, and thereafter neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further liability with respect thereto, except with respect to those matters that expressly survive the termination of the Lease.
Renewal Options a. Tenant shall have the right and option to renew the Lease (“Renewal Option”) for two (2) successive renewal periods of five (5) years each (each, an “Option Term”); provided, however, the Renewal Option is contingent upon the following: (i) there is not an Event of Default beyond all applicable cure period(s) at the time Tenant gives Landlord notice of Tenant’s intention to exercise the Renewal Option or at the expiration of the current Term; (ii) no event has occurred that upon notice or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default, unless Landlord has given notice of default and Tenant is diligently attempting to cure such event; and (iii) Tenant is occupying the Premises. Following expiration of the final Option Term allowable hereunder, Tenant shall have no further right to renew the Lease pursuant to this Section 5. b. Tenant shall exercise the Renewal Option by giving Landlord notice at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the current Term. If Tenant fails to give notice to Landlord prior to the 180-day period, then Tenant shall forfeit the Renewal Option. If Tenant exercises the Renewal Option, then during the Option Term, Landlord and Tenant’s respective rights, duties and obligations shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Lease, except as provided otherwise in this Section. Time is of the essence in exercising the Renewal Option. c. The Base Rental for an Option Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Rate. “Fair Market Rental Rate” shall mean the market rental rate for the time period such determination is being made for office space in same class office buildings in the area of Murfreesboro, Tennessee (the “Area”) of comparable condition for space of equivalent quality, size, utility, and location. Such determination shall take into account all relevant factors, including, without limitation, the following matters: the credit standing of Tenant; the length of the term; the fact that Landlord will experience no vacancy period and that Tenant will not suffer the costs and business interruption associated with moving its offices and negotiating a new lease; construction allowances and other tenant concessions that would be available to tenants comparable to Tenant in the Area (such as moving expense allowance, free rent periods, and lease assumptions and take over provisions, if any, but specifically excluding the value of improvements installed in the Premises at Tenant’s cost), and whether adjustments are then being made in determining the rental rates for renewals in the Area because of concessions being offered by Landlord to Tenant (or the lack thereof for the Option Term in question). For purposes of such calculation, it will only be assumed that Landlord is paying a representative of Tenant a brokerage commission in connection with the Option Term in question if Landlord is in fact paying a brokerage commission to a representative of Tenant in connection with the applicable Option Term.
Landlord’s Option as to Subject Space Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 14, in the event Tenant contemplates a Transfer other than to a Permitted Transferee which, together with all prior Transfers then remaining in effect, would cause fifty percent (50%) or more of the Premises to be Transferred for more than fifty percent (50%) of the then remaining Lease Term (taking into account any extension of the Lease Term which has irrevocably exercised by Tenant), Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the “Intention to Transfer Notice”) of such contemplated Transfer (whether or not the contemplated Transferee or the terms of such contemplated Transfer have been determined). The Intention to Transfer Notice shall specify the portion of and amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which Tenant intends to Transfer in the subject Transfer (the “Contemplated Transfer Space”), the contemplated date of commencement of the Contemplated Transfer (the “Contemplated Effective Date”), and the contemplated length of the term of such contemplated Transfer. Thereafter, Landlord shall have the option, by giving written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of any Intention to Transfer Notice, to recapture the Contemplated Transfer Space. Such recapture shall cancel and terminate this Lease with respect to such Contemplated Transfer Space as of the Contemplated Effective Date. In the event of a recapture by Landlord, if this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same. If Landlord declines, or fails to elect in a timely manner, to recapture such Contemplated Transfer Space under this Section 14.4, then, subject to the other terms of this Article 14, for a period of nine (9) months (the “Nine Month Period”) commencing on the last day of such thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall not have any right to recapture the Contemplated Transfer Space with respect to any Transfer made during the Nine Month Period, provided that any such Transfer is substantially on the terms set forth in the Intention to Transfer Notice, and provided further that any such Transfer shall be subject to the remaining terms of this Article 14. If such a Transfer is not so consummated within the Nine Month Period (or if a Transfer is so consummated, then upon the expiration of the term of any Transfer of such Contemplated Transfer Space consummated within such Nine Month Period), Tenant shall again be required to submit a new Intention to Transfer Notice to Landlord with respect any contemplated Transfer, as provided above in this Section 14.4. Tenant shall not be required to provide a separate Intention to Transfer Notice and Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent to a Transfer shall satisfy Tenant’s obligations in this Section 14.4.
Option Rights Except as provided below, the Option shall be valid for a term commencing on the Grant Date and ending 10 years after the Grant Date (the "EXPIRATION DATE").
Option Right Landlord hereby grants to the originally named Tenant herein (“Original Tenant”), and its “Permitted Assignees”, as that term is defined in Section 14.8, below, one (1) option to extend the Lease Term for a period of five (5) years (the “Option Term”), which option shall be irrevocably exercised only by written notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord not more than twelve (12) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, provided that the following conditions (the “Option Conditions”) are satisfied: (i) as of the date of delivery of such notice, Tenant is not in default under this Lease, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period; (ii) Tenant has not previously been in default under this Lease, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, more than twice in the twelve (12) month period prior to the date of Tenant’s attempted exercise; and (iii) the Lease then remains in full force and effect. Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, exercised in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, waive any of the Option Conditions in which case the option, if otherwise properly exercised by Tenant, shall remain in full force and effect. Upon the proper exercise of such option to extend, and provided that Tenant satisfies all of the Option Conditions (except those, if any, which are waived by Landlord), the Lease Term, as it applies to the Premises, shall be extended for a period of five (5) years. The rights contained in this Section 2.2 shall be personal to Original Tenant and any Permitted Assignees, and may be exercised by Original Tenant or such Permitted Assignees (and not by any other assignee, sublessee or other “Transferee,” as that term is defined in Section 14.1 of this Lease, of Tenant’s interest in this Lease).
Licensor’s Option Licensor shall have the option, at Licensor’s sole discretion, to terminate this License at any time within three (3) years of the date of this Agreement upon written notice to Licensee. In the event that Licensor exercises this option, Licensor shall pay to Licensee a sum equal to Two Hundred Percent (200%) of the License Fee paid by Licensee. Upon Licensor’s exercise of the option, Licensee must immediately remove the New Song from any and all digital and physical distribution channels and must immediately cease access to any streams and/or downloads of the New Song by the general public.
Landlord’s Reserved Rights Landlord shall have the following rights exercisable without notice to Tenant and without liability to Tenant for damage or injury to persons, property or business and without being deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use or possession of the Premises or giving rise to any claim for offset or abatement of Rent: (1) to change the Building’s name or street address upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Tenant; (2) to install, affix and maintain all signs on the exterior and/or interior of the Building; (3) to designate and/or approve prior to installation, all types of signs, window shades, blinds, drapes, awnings or other similar items, and all internal lighting that may be visible from the exterior of the Premises; (4) upon reasonable notice to Tenant, to display the Premises to prospective purchasers and lenders at reasonable hours at any time during the Term and to prospective tenants at reasonable hours during the last twelve (12) months of the Term; (5) to grant to any party the exclusive right to conduct any business or render any service in or to the Building, provided such exclusive right shall not operate to prohibit Tenant from using the Premises for the purpose permitted hereunder; (6) to change the arrangement and/or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, washrooms or public portions of the Building, and to close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators or other facilities, provided that such action shall not materially and adversely interfere with Tenant’s access to the Premises or the Building; (7) to have access for Landlord and other tenants of the Building to any mail chutes and boxes located in or on the Premises as required by any applicable rules of the United States Post Office; and (8) to close the Building after Standard Operating Hours, except that Tenant and its employees and invitees shall be entitled to admission at all times, under such regulations as Landlord prescribes for security purposes.
Extension Options Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.6.1, Borrower shall have the option (the “First Extension Option”), by irrevocable written notice (the “First Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Maturity Date, to extend the Maturity Date to August 31, 2022 (the “First Extended Maturity Date”). Borrower’s right to so extend the Maturity Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent prior to the effectiveness of any such extension: (a) (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date Borrower delivers the First Extension Notice or the Second Extension Notice, as applicable, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Stated Maturity Date and the First Extended Maturity Date, as applicable; (b) All amounts due and payable by Borrower and any other Person pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as of the Stated Maturity Date or the First Maturity Date, as applicable, and all costs and expenses of Lender, including fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel, in connection with the Loan and/or the extension shall have been paid in full; (c) Borrower shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to Lender (i) certifying that all representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement remain true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Option, and (ii) waiving any claims, counterclaims, rights of rescission, set-offs or defenses, known or unknown, against Lender as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Option. If Borrower is unable to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions within the applicable time frames for each, Lender shall have no obligation to extend the Stated Maturity Date hereunder.
Term and Renewal Options The term of service is 24 months (Initial Term). Following the expiration of the Initial Term, service under this option will continue on a month-to-month basis subject to the terms and conditions, including rates and discounts set forth under this option (Extension Term). The Company or the Customer may elect to forego the Extension Term by providing the other party written notice at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. Either party may terminate service during the Extension Term by providing the other party at least 60 days prior written notice. Term shall mean the Initial Term and the Extension Term.
Stock Options With respect to the stock options (the “Stock Options”) granted pursuant to the stock-based compensation plans of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company Stock Plans”), (i) each Stock Option intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) so qualifies, (ii) each grant of a Stock Option was duly authorized no later than the date on which the grant of such Stock Option was by its terms to be effective (the “Grant Date”) by all necessary corporate action, including, as applicable, approval by the board of directors of the Company (or a duly constituted and authorized committee thereof) and any required stockholder approval by the necessary number of votes or written consents, and the award agreement governing such grant (if any) was duly executed and delivered by each party thereto, (iii) each such grant was made in accordance with the terms of the Company Stock Plans, the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws and regulatory rules or requirements and (iv) each such grant was properly accounted for in accordance with GAAP in the financial statements (including the related notes) of the Company and disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws. The Company has not knowingly granted, and there is no and has been no policy or practice of the Company of granting, Stock Options prior to, or otherwise coordinating the grant of Stock Options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding the Company or its subsidiaries or their results of operations or prospects.
