Compliance Services (a) If Schedule I contains a requirement for the BNY to provide the Fund with compliance services, such services shall be provided pursuant to the terms of this Section 6 (the “Compliance Services”). The precise compliance review and testing services to be provided shall be as mutually agreed between the BNY and each Fund, and the results of the BNY’s Compliance Services shall be detailed in a compliance summary report (the “Compliance Summary Report”) prepared on a periodic basis as mutually agreed. Each Compliance Summary Report shall be subject to review and approval by the Fund. The BNY shall have no responsibility or obligation to provide Compliance Services other that those services specifically listed in Schedule I.
(b) The Fund will examine each Compliance Summary Report delivered to it by the BNY and notify the BNY of any error, omission or discrepancy within ten (10) days of its receipt. The Fund agrees to notify the BNY promptly if it fails to receive any such Compliance Summary Report. The Fund further acknowledges that unless it notifies the BNY of any error, omission or discrepancy within 10 days, such Compliance Summary Report shall be deemed to be correct and conclusive in all respects. In addition, if the Fund learns of any out-of-compliance condition before receiving a Compliance Summary Report reflecting such condition, the Fund will notify the BNY of such condition within one business day after discovery thereof.
(c) While the BNY will endeavor to identify out-of-compliance conditions, the BNY does not and could not for the fees charged, make any guarantees, representations or warranties with respect to its ability to identify all such conditions. In the event of any errors or omissions in the performance of Compliance Services, the Fund’s sole and exclusive remedy and the BNY’s sole liability shall be limited to re-performance by the BNY of the Compliance Services affected and in connection therewith the correction of any error or omission, if practicable and the preparation of a corrected report, at no cost to the Fund.
Services and Utilities (a) Landlord shall provide the following services and utilities during normal business hours on all days except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal and state holidays, or unless otherwise stated below. Cost of such services shall be included as an Operating Cost.
(i) when necessary during normal business hours, central heating and air conditioning in the Premises and the Common Areas at temperature levels customary for comparable office buildings in the immediate vicinity (Landlord and Tenant agree that Tenant shall have the right to operate the HVAC system serving the Premises on an after-hours basis and shall pay for such expense in accordance with Section 8(b));
(ii) janitorial services five business days per week; and
(iii) three passenger elevators, to be used in common with other tenants, except for the occasion of a temporary repair or replacement of the elevators. “Normal business hours” for purposes of clause (a) above shall be deemed to mean the periods from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. on business days (Monday through Friday) and from 8:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Tenant shall nonetheless have access to the Premises and elevators seven (7) days a week, twenty-four (24) hours a day, subject to and in accordance with any security procedures that Landlord may have in place.
(b) Tenant shall pay Tenant’s pro rata share of Tenant Electric. In addition, Tenant shall pay for all costs of after-hours HVAC service used by Tenant at an hourly rate mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Electric current supplied to or used in the Premises shall be set at the rate prevailing for Tenant’s class of use as established by the company or companies chosen by Landlord or its designee to provide electricity to the Premises. Upon reasonable prior notice, Landlord or its designated electric service provider may have access to the Premises to install equipment necessary to deliver electric service to the Premises or the Building provided that Landlord or the utility company shall restore the Premises to its condition prior to the commencement of such work. Landlord reserves the right to switch electricity providers, if legally permissible, at any time. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for damages arising as a result of service interruptions caused by any electric service provider. Electric current supplied to or used in the Premise shall be measured by a submeter.
(c) Any failure by the Landlord to furnish any of the foregoing services or utilities, resulting from circumstances beyond the Landlord’s reasonable control or from interruption of such services due to repairs or maintenance, shall not render the Landlord liable in any respect for damages to either person or property, nor be construed as an eviction of the Tenant, nor cause an abatement of rent hereunder, nor relieve the Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder, unless caused by Landlord or its agents, employees and/or contractors. If any public utility or governmental body shall require the Landlord or the Tenant to restrict the consumption of any utility or reduce any service for the Premises or the Building, the Landlord and the Tenant shall comply with such requirements, whether or not the services and utilities referred to in this section 8 are thereby reduced or otherwise affected, without any liability on the part of the Landlord to the Tenant or any other person or any reduction or adjustment in rent payable hereunder. The Landlord and its agents shall be permitted reasonable access to the Premises for the purpose of installing and servicing systems within the Premises deemed necessary by the Landlord to provide the services and utilities referred to in this Section 8 to the Tenant and other tenants in the Building.
(d) Tenant shall not at any time overburden or exceed the capacity of the mains, feeders, ducts, conduits, or other facilities by which such utilities are supplied to, distributed in or serve the Premises beyond normal office uses. If Tenant desires to install any equipment which shall require additional utility facilities or utility facilities of a greater capacity than the facilities existing, such installation shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications therefor. If such installation is approved by Landlord and if Landlord provides such additional facilities to accommodate Tenant’s installation, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, on demand, the cost for providing such additional utility facilities or utility facilities of greater capacity. Landlord shall not be responsible for providing any meters or other devices for the measurement of utilities supplied to the Premises. In addition, if Tenant requires lighting other than the standard lighting provided by Landlord for the Building, Tenant shall be required to pay Landlord on demand for the additional costs of such lighting, including light bulb replacement.
(e) Landlord shall cause to be operated a trash removal service for the Project, the costs and expenses of which shall be a part of Operating Costs. In the event that Tenant’s use of the Premises requires trash removal services in excess of that required for standard office tenants, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent all costs and expenses in excess of the trash removal costs which are attributable to such excess usage.
(f) In the event Tenant wishes, at any time, to utilize the services of a telecommunications provider who is not then authorized by the Landlord to provide telecommunications services to tenants in the Building, such provider shall be permitted to install its lines or other equipment within the Building after it secures the prior written approval of the Landlord. Landlord hereby authorizes Verizon, Worldcom, and Telephonet to provide telecommunication services to the Building. Tenant shall use its best efforts to get such vendors to execute license and access agreements reasonably acceptable to Landlord provided that such agreements do not materially alter the telecommunication service to Tenant or increase the costs to Tenant of such telecommunication services. Landlord’s approval shall not be deemed any kind of warranty or representation by Landlord, including, without limitation, any warranty or representation as to the suitability, competence, or financial strength of the provider. Without limitation of the foregoing standard, unless all of the following conditions are satisfied to Landlord’s satisfaction, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to refuse to give its approval: (i) Landlord shall incur no expense whatsoever with respect to any aspect of the provider’s provision of its services, including, without limitation, the costs of installation, materials and services; (ii) the provider shall agree to use the Building’s central communications distribution system (“CDS”) to deliver telecommunications services to Tenant (unless the CDS is not physically capable of delivering such services); (iii) prior to commencement of any work in or about the Building by the provider, the provider shall supply Landlord with such written indemnities, insurance, financial statements, and such other items as Landlord reasonably determines to be necessary to protect its financial interests and the interests of the Building relating to the proposed activities of the provider; (iv) the provider agrees in writing to abide by such rules and regulations, Building and other codes, job site rules and such other requirements as are reasonably determined by Landlord to be necessary to protect the interests of the Building, the tenants in the Building, and Landlord, in the same or similar manner as Landlord has the right to protect itself and the Building with respect to proposed alterations as described in this Lease; (v) Landlord reasonably determines that there is sufficient space in the Building for the placement of all of the provider’s equipment and materials; (vi) Landlord receives from the provider such compensation as is reasonably determined by Landlord to compensate it for the fair market value of a provider’s occupancy of the Building, and the costs which may reasonably be expected to be incurred by Landlord in conjunction with the provider’s occupancy of and activities within the Building; and (vii) all of the foregoing matters are documented in a written agreement between Landlord and the provider, the form and content of which is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Except as otherwise authorized in writing by Landlord, all communications services provided to Tenant shall be delivered via the Building’s CDS. Landlord may charge Tenant’s service providers fees for use of the CDS (“CDS Fees”), which includes monthly recurring fees (“Recurring CDS Fees”) for use of each circuit of the CDS used in the delivery of communications services to Tenant, and non-recurring fees (“Non-Recurring CDS Fees”) relating to activities such as moves, adds and changes of circuits which Landlord or Landlord’s agents are making. In the event that a service provider refuses for any reason to pay the CDS Fees directly to Landlord, or if Tenant is directly using the CDS to connect to a provider or otherwise, Tenant shall be responsible to pay Landlord Non-Recurring CDS Fees, but in no event shall Tenant be responsible to pay to Landlord Recurring CDS Fees, Landlord shall repair or replace the CDS as necessary to eliminate any interruption or other adverse effects to Tenant caused by malfunction, damage or destruction of the CDS, the cost of which shall be borne by Tenant if the problem was caused directly or indirectly by the act or omission of Tenant, its agents, representatives, employees or invitees. In no event shall Landlord or its agents be liable for any direct or indirect claims or damages of any kind arising out of any interruption or failure of communications or related services (including without limitation, local or long distance phone service, internet, cable TV, CDS, and data services) received by Tenant, it being understood that Tenant shall look solely to its communications services providers for recovery of any such claims or damages. To the extent that Landlord or its agents provides any communications services directly to Tenant, Tenant’s sole remedy in the event that such services provided by Landlord or its agents are interrupted or otherwise fail shall be an equitable abatement of the fees paid by Tenant to Landlord or its agents for such services, pro-rated from the date of the interruption or failure of service until the date upon which service is restored. Landlord shall have the right to designate a third party as its agent to manage and/or own the telecommunications infrastructure in the Building, whose responsibilities include without limitation management of circuit activity on the CDS (“Manager”). Manager or Landlord may provide to Tenant operating procedures for the CDS, including the phone number(s) for the, person or persons responsible for the operation and maintenance of the CDS, and Tenant agrees to comply with any such procedures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may, in its sole discretion and upon notice to Tenant, also designate other entities as Manager of the CDS.
Subadviser’s Services Are Not Exclusive Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right of Subadviser or any of its partners, officers, or employees to engage in any other business or to devote his or her time and attention in part to the management or other aspects of any business, whether of a similar or a dissimilar nature, or limit or restrict Subadviser's right to engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other mutual fund, corporation, firm, individual, or association.
