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.

Access to Premises Landlord, its agents, servants, or employees may enter the Premises at reasonable times with reasonable advance notice to Tenant (or an authorized employee of Tenant at the Premises), and at any time, upon reasonable notice to Tenant under the circumstances, in an emergency, to do the following: inspect the Premises; comply with all laws, orders, ordinances and requirements of any governmental unit or authority for which Landlord may be responsible under this Lease, if any; show the Premises to prospective lenders or purchasers and, during the ninety (90) days immediately prior to the expiration of this Lease if Tenant declines to renew for an additional term in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, to prospective tenants, but only if all such showings are accompanied by a representative of Tenant if so requested by Tenant; or post (on the Development, but not within or at the entrance of the Premises) for sale or for lease signs; provided; however, that all such entries shall be completed promptly in a good workmanlike manner so as to cause the least practical interference to Tenant’s business and Tenant’s use of the Premises. In all events, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the Premises and Tenant’s business operations thereon. If Landlord’s entry materially and substantially interferes with the conduct of Tenant’s business and/or cause damage to Tenant’s property (and the entry is not needed because of Tenant’s default, negligence or willful misconduct), then in such event the rent and any sums due and payable as additional rents, shall xxxxx in proportion to the extent of the interference and Landlord shall be liable for any damage to Tenant’s property.

The location, size, construction, mounting and design of each Building Sign shall be subject to Landlord’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Tenant shall obtain, at its expense, all permits and approvals required for the installation of each Building Sign prior to the installation thereof (but shall not be permitted to seek any zoning or similar relief for Building’s Sign without Landlord’s consent, which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion), and shall keep all such perm its and approvals in full force and effect throughout the Term. Tenant acknowledges that each such Building Sign shall be at Tenant’s risk and Tenant shall perform all maintenance and repairs to each Building Sign required to keep it in good condition.

Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord any proposed changes in the Building Sign, including the addition of signage for any Transferee permitted hereunder, and any estimated costs thereof, and such changes shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any changes to the Building Sign shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease, and upon any event pursuant to which the Sign Conditions cease to prevail, Tenant shall remove each Building Sign (and all associated hardware) from the applicable Building and shall fill all holes and repair all damage caused by such removal and restore the affected area to a condition and appearance which is consistent with the finishes (e.g. paint) in close proximity to such area.

Lessee shall pay Lessor pro rata Rent (based on the amount of Rent applicable during the last month prior to the termination or expiration) through the date of Lessee’s complete removal of all such items. During the period of such removal and clean-up, all terms and conditions of this Lease, including, the indemnity and insurance provisions shall continue in full force and effect. If Lessee elects not to remove all of the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises on or before the Removal Date, and provided that such facilities are in good working condition at the expiration of the Term (ordinary wear and tear excepted) then, such Tank Farm Assets and Improvements shall be deemed permanently abandoned to Lessor’s sole ownership, and Lessor may remove and dispose of such facilities in any manner which Lessor may deem appropriate, without any liability whatsoever to Lessee. If Lessee elects not to remove all of the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises on or before the Removal Date and such facilities are not in good working condition at the expiration of the term (ordinary wear and tear excepted), or Lessee fails to so remove any or all of the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements from the Premises before the Removal Date, then, in addition to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity, without any prior notice, Lessor may (but shall be under no obligation), at Lessor’s option, deem such Tank Farm Assets and Improvements to be permanently abandoned to Lessor’s sole ownership, and Lessor may remove and dispose of such facilities in any manner which Lessor may deem appropriate, without any liability whatsoever to Lessee, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for all costs of such removal and disposal upon demand from Lessor. If requested by Lessor, Lessee shall execute any and all documents necessary to evidence that title to the Tank Farm Assets and Improvements that Lessee does not remove by the Removal Date is in Lessor and to extinguish and remove any cloud or potential cloud on the title to the Premises and/or such facilities created by Lessee.
