Option to Expand On or before expiration of the sixth (6th) month of the term, Tenant shall be required to lease the remainder 3,942 square feet of Rentable Space on the third (3rd) floor, at the same rental rate then being paid for the initial Premises. In addition, Tenant will have the right to expand during the first 6 months by leasing the approximately 15,165 square feet of Rental Space on the fourth (4th) floor (the “4th Floor Space”) as identified on Exhibit “B-1” attached to this Lease and incorporated herein by reference at the same rental rate then being paid in the initial Premises; provided, however, Landlord will continue to keep the 4th Floor Space available for lease to Tenant for one additional period of three (3) months (a total of nine months following the commencement date), but if Tenant elects to lease the 4th Floor Space between the expiration of the sixth (6) month and commencement of the ninth (9th) month following commencement of the Lease, the rental rate shall be increased by twenty-five cents (.25¢) per square foot, and Tenant improvements dollars will decline on a pro rata basis based on the remaining length of the term. If the Tenant does not elect to lease the fourth (4th) floor space during the initial nine (9) months following commencement of the Lease, Tenant shall have the right of first refusal to lease the 4th Floor Space in the event that Landlord receives an offer to lease the space, and any such right of first refusal shall be on the exact terms received and approved by Landlord from a third party offering to lease the 4th Floor Space. Tenant shall have the option to lease at then current market rental rates any additional space which is available in 5,000 rsf increments consisting of the area which is available on the second (2nd) and fifth (5th) floors designated and referred to as the “Expansion Space”, at any time during the lease term (the “Effective Date”) and ending on the expiration of the Lease Term (unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and subject to any rights of extension contained in this Lease) by delivering written notice to Landlord, provided that at the time of such notice and on the Effective Date, no event of default, as defined in Paragraph 25 of this Lease, shall have occurred and remain uncured beyond any applicable cure period. Once Tenant shall exercise an expansion option, Tenant may not thereafter revoke such exercise. Tenant’s failure to timely exercise an expansion option for any reason whatsoever shall conclusively be deemed a waiver of such expansion option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant’s option shall be subject to a determination by Landlord, in Landlord’s discretion, that Tenant’s financial condition at the time it makes such election is sufficient to meet its financial obligation associated with the Offered Space.
Election to Exercise To exercise the Option, the Participant (or in the case of exercise after the Participant’s death or incapacity, the Participant’s executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to the Company an executed stock option exercise agreement in such form as is approved by the Committee from time to time (the “Exercise Agreement”), which shall set forth, inter alia:
(a) the Participant’s election to exercise the Option;
(b) the number of Shares of Common Stock being purchased;
(c) any restrictions imposed on the Shares; and
(d) any representations, warranties and agreements regarding the Participant’s investment intent and access to information as may be required by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws. If someone other than the Participant exercises the Option, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company verifying that such person has the legal right to exercise the Option.
Option to Build If the dates designated by Developer are not acceptable to Connecting Transmission Owner, the Connecting Transmission Owner shall so notify the Developer and NYISO within thirty (30) Calendar Days, and unless the Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner agree otherwise, Developer shall have the option to assume responsibility for the design, procurement and construction of Connecting Transmission Owner’s Attachment Facilities and Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities on the dates specified in Article 5.1.2; provided that if an Attachment Facility or Stand Alone System Upgrade Facility is needed for more than one Developer’s project, Developer’s option to build such Facility shall be contingent on the agreement of all other affected Developers. NYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner and Developer must agree as to what constitutes Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities and identify such Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities in Appendix A hereto. Except for Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities, Developer shall have no right to construct System Upgrade Facilities under this option.
Option to Extend Term Tenant shall have the option (“Option”) to extend the Term by five (5) years as to the entire Premises (and no less than the entire Premises) upon the following terms and conditions. Any extension of the Term pursuant to the Option shall be on all the same terms and conditions as this Lease, except as follows:
42.1. Base Rent during the Option term (including annual escalations, if applicable) shall equal the then-current fair market value for comparable office and laboratory space in the Xxxxxx Xxxxx submarket of comparable age, quality, level of finish and proximity to amenities and public transit (“FMV”). Tenant may, no more than twelve (12) months prior to the date the Term is then scheduled to expire, request Landlord’s estimate of the FMV for the Option term. Landlord shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such request, give Tenant a written proposal of such FMV. If Tenant gives written notice to exercise the Option, such notice shall specify whether Tenant accepts Landlord’s proposed estimate of FMV. If Tenant does not accept the FMV, then the parties shall endeavor to agree upon the FMV, taking into account all relevant factors, including (a) the size of the Premises, (b) the length of the Option term, (c) rent in comparable buildings in the relevant submarket, including concessions offered to new tenants, such as free rent, tenant improvement allowances and moving allowances, (d) Tenant’s creditworthiness and (e) the quality and location of the Building and the Project. In the event that the parties are unable to agree upon the FMV within thirty (30) days after Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant is exercising the Option, then either party may request that the same be determined as follows: a senior officer of a nationally recognized leasing brokerage firm with local knowledge of the Xxxxxx Xxxxx laboratory/research and development leasing submarket (the “Baseball Arbitrator”) shall be selected and paid for jointly by Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Baseball Arbitrator, then the same shall be designated by the local chapter of the American Arbitration Association or any successor organization thereto (the “AAA”). The Baseball Arbitrator selected by the parties or designated by the AAA shall (y) have at least ten (10) years’ experience in the leasing of laboratory/research and development space in the Xxxxxx Xxxxx submarket and (z) not have been employed or retained by either Landlord or Tenant or any affiliate of either for a period of at least ten (10) years prior to appointment pursuant hereto. Each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to the Baseball Arbitrator and to the other party its determination of the FMV. The Baseball Arbitrator shall grant to Landlord and Tenant a hearing and the right to submit evidence. The Baseball Arbitrator shall determine which of the two (2) FMV determinations more closely represents the actual FMV. The arbitrator may not select any other FMV for the Premises other than one submitted by Landlord or Tenant. The FMV selected by the Baseball Arbitrator shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant and shall serve as the basis for determination of Base Rent payable for the Option term. If, as of the commencement date of the Option term, the amount of Base Rent payable during the Option term shall not have been determined, then, pending such determination, Tenant shall pay Base Rent equal to the Base Rent payable with respect to the last year of the then-current Term. After the final determination of Base Rent payable for the Option term, the parties shall promptly execute a written amendment to this Lease specifying the amount of Base Rent to be paid during the Option term. Any failure of the parties to execute such amendment shall not affect the validity of the FMV determined pursuant to this Section.
42.2. The Option is not assignable separate and apart from this Lease.
42.3. The Option is conditional upon Tenant giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise the Option on or before the date that is nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the then-current Term (such date, the “Option Date”). Time shall be of the essence as to Tenant’s exercise of the Option. Tenant assumes full responsibility for maintaining a record of the deadlines to exercise the Option. Tenant acknowledges that it would be inequitable to require Landlord to accept any exercise of the Option after the date provided for in this Section.
42.4. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article to the contrary, Tenant shall not have the right to exercise the Option:
(a) During the time commencing from the date Landlord delivers to Tenant a written notice that Tenant is in default under any provisions of this Lease and continuing until Tenant has cured the specified default to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction; or
(b) At any time after any Default as described in Article 31 of the Lease and continuing until Tenant cures any such Default, if such Default is susceptible to being cured; or
(c) In the event that Tenant has defaulted in the performance of its obligations under this Lease two (2) or more times and a service or late charge has become payable under Section 31.1 for each of such defaults during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the date that Tenant intends to exercise the Option, whether or not Tenant has cured such defaults.
42.5. The period of time within which Tenant may exercise the Option shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise such Option because of the provisions of Section 42.4.
42.6. All of Tenant’s rights under the provisions of the Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenant’s due and timely exercise of the Option if, after such exercise, but prior to the commencement date of the new term, (a) Tenant fails to pay to Landlord a monetary obligation of Tenant for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, (b) Tenant fails to commence to cure a default (other than a monetary default) within thirty (30) days after the date Landlord gives notice to Tenant of such default or (c) Tenant has defaulted under this Lease two (2) or more times and a service or late charge under Section 31.1 has become payable for any such default, whether or not Tenant has cured such defaults.
Option to Extend (a) Provided that the Tenant is not then in default of its obligations under this Lease beyond any applicable cure or grace period, the Landlord shall at the expiration of the Term, provided the Tenant has given the Landlord notice of its exercise of the option to extend at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term, extend the Term for a further term of five (5) years (the “First Extension Term”) from the expiration of the Term, upon the same terms and conditions contained in this Lease except extension options and the Annual Base Rent to be paid during the First Extension Term.
(b) Provided that the Tenant is not then in default of its obligations under this Lease beyond any applicable cure or grace period, the Landlord shall at the expiration of the First Extension Term, provided the Tenant has given the Landlord notice of its exercise of the option to extend at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the First Extension Term, extend the First Extension Term for a further term of five (5) years (the “Second Extension Term”) from the expiration of the Term, upon the same terms and conditions contained in this Lease except extension options and the Annual Base Rent to be paid during the Second Extension Term.
(c) The Annual Base Rent during any Extension Term shall be the Current Market Rent for the Premises. If the Landlord and the Tenant have not mutually agreed on the amount of the Annual Base Rent at least three (3) months prior to the commencement of such Extension Term, then Annual Base Rent shall be decided in the manner set out in Section 3.3. Until the Annual Base Rent has been determined, the Tenant shall pay the monthly Rent requested by the Landlord and, upon the determination of the Annual Base Rent, the Landlord and the Tenant shall make the appropriate adjustments together with interest at the Prime Rate.
FORM OF ELECTION TO EXERCISE (To be exercised by the registered holder if such holder desires to exercise the Rights Certificate.)

If such number of Rights shall not be all the Rights evidenced by this Rights Certificate, a new Rights Certificate for the balance of such Rights shall be registered in the name of and delivered to: (Name) (Address) (City and Province) Social Insurance Number or other taxpayer identification number. Dated: Signature Guaranteed: Signature (Signature must correspond to name as written upon the face of this Rights Certificate in every particular, without alteration or enlargement or any change whatsoever.) Signature must be guaranteed by a major Schedule 1 Canadian chartered bank, a member of a recognized stock exchange or a member of a recognized Medallion Guarantee Program. The undersigned party exercising Rights hereunder, hereby represents, for the benefit of all holders of Rights and Common Shares, that the Rights evidenced by this Rights Certificate are not, and, to the knowledge of the undersigned, have never been, Beneficially Owned by an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate thereof or a Person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate thereof. Capitalized terms shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Shareholder Rights Agreement.
Issuance of Ordinary Shares on Exercise As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of Ordinary Shares to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it on the register of members of the Company, and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant, as applicable, for the number of shares as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant and shall have no obligation to settle such Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Ordinary Shares underlying the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations under Section 7.4 or a valid exemption from registration is available. No Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue Ordinary Shares upon exercise of a Warrant unless the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such Warrant exercise have been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of the Registered Holder of the Warrants. Subject to Section 4.6 of this Agreement, a Registered Holder of Warrants may exercise its Warrants only for a whole number of Ordinary Shares. The Company may require holders of Public Warrants to settle the Warrant on a “cashless basis” pursuant to Section 7.4. If, by reason of any exercise of Warrants on a “cashless basis”, the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in an Ordinary Share, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to such holder.
Option to Purchase Subject to Section 3.5, the Receiver hereby grants to the Assuming Institution an exclusive option for the period of ninety (90) days commencing the day after Bank Closing to purchase any or all owned Bank Premises, including all Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment located on the Bank Premises. The Assuming Institution shall give written notice to the Receiver within the option period of its election to purchase or not to purchase any of the owned Bank Premises. Any purchase of such premises shall be effective as of the date of Bank Closing and such purchase shall be consummated as soon as practicable thereafter, and in no event later than the Settlement Date. If the Assuming Institution gives notice of its election not to purchase one or more of the owned Bank Premises within seven (7) days of Bank Closing, then, not withstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Assuming Institution shall not be liable for any of the costs or fees associated with appraisals for such Bank Premises and associated Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment.
No Obligation to Exercise Option The grant and acceptance of this option imposes no obligation on the Optionee to exercise it.
Issuance of Common Stock on Exercise As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant, as applicable, for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. If fewer than all the Warrants evidenced by a Book Entry Warrant Certificate are exercised, a notation shall be made to the records maintained by the Depositary, its nominee for each Book Entry Warrant Certificate, or a Participant, as appropriate, evidencing the balance of the Warrants remaining after such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant and shall have no obligation to settle such Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations under Section 7.4. No Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant unless the Common Stock issuable upon such Warrant exercise have been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of the Registered Holder of the Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a Warrant, the holder of such Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrant and such Warrant may have no value and expire worthless, in which case the purchaser of a Unit containing such Public Warrants shall have paid the full purchase price for the Units solely for the shares of Common Stock underlying such Unit. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrant exercise. Subject to Section 4.6 of this Agreement, a Registered Holder of Warrants may exercise its Warrants only for a whole number of Common Stock. The Company may require holders of Public Warrants to settle the Warrant on a “cashless basis” pursuant to Section 7.4. If, by reason of any exercise of Warrants on a “cashless basis”, the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to such holder.
