Mechanical Damage Sample Clauses

Mechanical Damage. The mechani- cal damage of batteries may result in internal short circuits and fires. The housing may be damaged by manufac- turing defects (e.g. improper assembly Secondary thermal stress: Exterior thermal stress (caused by thermal radi- ation in case of fires, for example) may make components (e.g. separators) of lithium batteries melt, resulting in a short circuit, which, in turn, may easily cause a fire. External short circuit: When the two poles of a battery are connected to one another (e.g. by a metal object), this re- sults in an external short circuit. Internal short circuit caused by a cell failure or crash: Among the main reasons for internal short circuits are manufacturing defects arising in the course of the production of lithium cells. If metal particles or other conduc- tive impurities are enclosed between the separator and the electrode in the course of the manufacturing process, Overcharge: A cell or battery is charged to a level exceeding the end-of-charge voltage specified by the manufactur- er. The fully charged cell is not able to store the energy supplied from the socket; consequently, the overcharged cell or battery heats up. Inside the cell, the organic electrolyte fluid may start evaporating and the crystalline layered structure may start disintegrating; in combination with a strongly exother- mic reaction, this may lead to the re- lease of elemental oxygen (oxidizing!). Over discharge and exhaustive dis- charge: In case of over or exhaustive discharge, a cell or battery is further discharged even though the end-of- discharge voltage specified by the manufacturer has been reached. This results in an irreversible decomposition Cooling system defect (in large-scale batteries): If the internal cooling of the battery uses a cooling agent based on a glycol/water mixture (as is customary in large-scale batteries and car batter- ies), a defect of the cooling system and leaking cooling agent may give rise to the risk that capillary action makes the cooling agent rise between the cells, possibly resulting in a short circuit and the ultimate thermal runaway of the battery even several days later. Counterfeit lithium ion batteries and chargers: Some companies (particu- larly in the field of consumer electron- ics) have posted warnings concerning counterfeit lithium ion batteries and chargers on their websites. They ex- pressly point out that these products are not equipped with appropriate safety elements, which may give rise to different pr...

Any tree that has had 25% or more of the live limbs or branches broken or removed by mechanical operations.
Mechanical Damage. Any damage caused to the vehicle during the hire is the responsibility of the Hirer as set out in the standard Terms and Conditions of Hire. For use at Festivals you should particularly note that if the vehicle becomes stuck in the camping fields or access roads you should obtain a tow out of the field, this would be at your own expense and is not covered through the breakdown cover which we have provided. Should you attempt to free the vehicle yourself and burn out the clutch or cause other damage to the vehicle in any way, you will be responsible for the entire cost of repairs and for the following hire periods and associated costs of cancelling hires that may have been booked while the vehicle is unable to be hired out due to repairs are being arranged and/or carried out. The cost could be significant, running into many thousands of pounds.

  • Substantial Damage Upon the occurrence of Substantial Damage (as hereinafter defined) to the Property after the Effective Date and before the Closing Date, Seller shall promptly deliver notice thereof to Purchaser, and Purchaser may, at its option, either (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice thereof given to Seller and Escrow Agent within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice from Seller as to such Substantial Damage, whereupon the Deposit will be returned to Purchaser, and the parties shall have no further obligations under this Agreement, except for those which expressly survive any termination of this Agreement, or (b) proceed to close the transaction contemplated herein without any delay pursuant to the terms hereof, in which event Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at the Closing, or as soon as available, any insurance proceeds actually received by Seller and attributable to the Property damaged by such casualty (other than on account of business or rental interruption relating to the period prior to Closing but including all business or rental interruption relating to the period on or after Closing), shall assign to Purchaser any right it may have to receive insurance proceeds attributable to the Property damaged by such casualty (other than on account of business or rental interruption relating to the period prior to Closing but including all business or rental interruption relating to the period on or after Closing), and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible. If Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement due to the Substantial Damage, Seller shall timely file and process a claim respecting the Substantial Damage with its insurer, but shall not settle or adjust the claim without obtaining Purchaser’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. For purposes of this Agreement, “Substantial Damage” shall mean any casualty or loss resulting in a repair expense in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) or any damage which results in the Franchisor refusing to enter into the New Franchise Agreement. If the Scheduled Closing Date is less than the full fifteen (15) day period for Purchaser to make its determination of whether to terminate or close, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended to five (5) business days after expiration of the full fifteen (15) day period.

  • Partial Damage In the event all or a portion of the Premises is partially damaged by fire, explosion, the elements, a public enemy, Act of God, or other casualty, but not rendered untenable, Company will give Authority immediate notice thereof, and Authority will make the repairs immediately, at its own cost and expense.

  • Minor Damage In the event that a Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing, and the cost of Repairs is equal to or less than ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price for such Property, then this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3, notwithstanding such casualty. In such event, applicable Seller may at its election endeavor to make such Repairs to the extent of any recovery from insurance carried on the Property, if such Repairs can be reasonably effected before the Closing. Regardless of applicable Seller’s election to commence such Repairs, or applicable Seller’s ability to complete such Repairs prior to Closing, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3 below.

  • Physical Damage Insurance The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, require that each Obligor shall have obtained physical damage insurance covering the Financed Equipment as of the execution of the Receivable.

  • Repair of Damage If the Relevant Space is damaged by fire, storm, flood, earthquake or other insured casualty, Landlord and Tenant shall work cooperatively and diligently with one another to obtain estimates of the cost and time required to repair and restore such damage to the Building and the Relevant Space (which estimates Landlord shall be responsible for obtaining and sharing with Tenant) and to negotiate a settlement payment with the relevant insurance company as quickly as feasible following the date of the casualty event and in any event within ninety (90) days after the date of such casualty event (the “90-Day Casualty Assessment Period”). If it is determined that the damage to the Building and the Relevant Space can be substantially repaired and restored within one hundred eighty (180) days from the expiration of the 90-Day Casualty Assessment Period using standard working methods and procedures, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to repair and restore the Relevant Space and the Building to its previous condition. Provided, however, if it is determined that the Building and the Relevant Space cannot be repaired and restored within such one hundred eighty (180) day period, then either party may, within ten (10) days after such determination is made and communicated to both Landlord and Tenant, terminate this Lease by giving notice to the other party; provided further, however, Tenant shall not be able to terminate this Lease if the damage was caused by Tenant’s willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of repairing and restoring the Building, the Building-Specific Common Areas, the Exterior Common Areas and/or the Land, or any part thereof, to the extent that any water damage is due to the malfunction, leaking or misuse of any Tenant personal property, equipment, or non- Building Standard Improvements, including, without limitation, refrigerators, fish tanks, icemakers, water fountains and water coolers, to the extent specified in Section 6.4 herein. Additionally, if it is determined that the Building and the Relevant Space will be repaired and restored as provided above, Tenant shall be entitled, by so notifying Landlord in writing during the 90-Day Casualty Assessment Period, to have Landlord’s repair and restoration obligations encompass only a scope of work that is consistent with the Building Shell Improvements originally completed by Landlord prior to the Commencement Date and, in such case, (i) Tenant shall be responsible for all additional work required to repair and restore the Building and the Relevant Space to the condition that existed immediately prior to the casualty event or to a modified condition and receive the relevant insurance proceeds related thereto which remain following the completion of Landlord’s repair and restoration obligations, subject to Landlord’s prior written approval of the plans and specifications for such modifications pursuant to Section 6.1(b) herein (and Tenant shall bear the risk of any shortfall in insurance proceeds to fully pay for such additional work if and to the extent such additional work exceeds the scope of work that would be required to restore the Improvements that existed in the Premises immediately prior to the casualty event), (ii) the foregoing one hundred eighty (180) day period for the completion of the repair and restoration project shall no longer be applicable and (iii) Tenant shall cause such additional work to be completed in an expeditious manner (so that rent hereunder will again be payable with respect to the Relevant Space) and otherwise in compliance with all relevant terms and provisions in this Lease relating to the installation of Improvements by Tenant.

  • Destruction or Damage (a) If the Building or the Premises are totally destroyed by storm, fire, earthquake, or other casualty, or damaged to the extent that, in Landlord's reasonable opinion the damage cannot be restored within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date Landlord provides Tenant written notice of Landlord's reasonable estimate of the time necessary to restore the damage, or if the damage is not covered by standard "all risks" property insurance and as a result Landlord elects not to restore such damage, Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date of such destruction or damage by written notice to the other on or before thirty (30) days following Landlord's notice described in the next sentence and Rent shall be accounted for as between Landlord and Tenant as of that date. Landlord shall provide Tenant with notice within forty-five (45) days following the date of the damage of the estimated time needed to restore, and whether the loss is covered by Landlord's insurance coverage (and if not, whether Landlord nevertheless elects to restore). (b) If the Premises are damaged by any such casualty or casualties but neither party is entitled to or neither party elects to terminate this Lease as provided in subparagraph (a) above, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within forty-five (45) days of the date of the damage that the damage will be restored (and will include Landlord's good faith estimate of the date the restoration will be complete), in which case Rent shall xxxxx as to any portion of the Premises which is not usable, and Landlord shall restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as before the damage occurred as soon as practicable, whereupon full Rent shall recommence.

  • Major Damage In the event of Major Damage to a Property prior to the Closing Date, then the applicable Seller shall have no obligation to repair such Major Damage and shall notify Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction (the “Damage Notice”). Within ten (10) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Damage Notice, Purchaser may elect at its option to give a Termination Notice for the damaged Property to Seller’s Representative. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to the damaged Property, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement either, at the election of the applicable Seller, (a) for the full Purchase Price for the damaged Property notwithstanding any such damage or destruction, and Purchaser shall, at Closing, execute and deliver an assignment and assumption (in a form reasonably required by the applicable Seller) of such Seller’ rights and obligations with respect to the insurance claim and related to such casualty, and thereafter Purchaser shall receive all remaining insurance proceeds pertaining to such claim (plus a credit against the applicable Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of any deductible payable by the applicable Seller in connection therewith and not spent by such Seller for demolition, site cleaning, restoration or other repairs); or (b) Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Base Purchase Price for the damaged Property for the full replacement costs of repair to the subject Property, plus, to the extent covered by such Seller’s insurance policy, any costs required pursuant to local code or zoning requirements, as determined by an independent third party reasonably acceptable to such Seller and Purchaser. In the event a Seller elects to assign such Seller's rights and obligations with respect to the insurance claim and related casualty to Purchaser as provided above, and if an AIMCO employee is the adjuster for the claim related thereto, Sellers covenant and agree that the adjuster shall act in accordance with standard insurance industry protocols in processing such claim (including, without limitation, the time taken to process such claim).
