Options to Renew Provided that no Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease exists as of the date of exercise of the applicable option or at the expiration of the initial term or preceding Option Term, and provided further that Tenant has not assigned this Lease, Tenant shall have the option to extend the initial lease term for four (4) additional, successive terms of five (5) years each (each, an "OPTION TERM"). Tenant shall exercise the option, if at all, by delivering to Landlord written notice of the exercise no sooner than fifteen (15) months nor later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or preceding Option Term, as applicable. Tenant's right to exercise each option shall be conditioned upon Tenant delivering to Landlord with Tenant's notice of exercise, current financial reports which evidence that Tenant's financial condition on the date of exercise is equal to or better than Tenant's financial condition on the date of execution of this Lease. If Tenant's financial condition has declined in Landlord's business judgment, Landlord may refuse to accept Tenant's exercise unless Tenant agrees to provide a new Letter(s) of Credit with terms and amounts acceptable to Landlord in its business judgment to secure Tenant's obligations during the applicable Option Term. All terms, provisions, conditions and covenants of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the Option Terms, provided that Tenant shall have no additional option periods and the Base Rent payable during the first Lease Year of each Option Term (and for increases during the Option Term, as applicable) shall be the market rate then prevailing as projected for the commencement of the applicable Option Term, for premises comparable in size, quality and location in comparable class R&D/Office buildings throughout the Tri-Valley/Livermore area taking into account all relevant factors (the "MARKET RENT"). Base Rent for the Option Term shall be determined prior to the commencement of the applicable Option Term in the following manner: If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the market rent within sixty (60) days after Tenant gives notice of its exercise of the Option Term, then Tenant shall have the right to revoke its exercise of the option by delivering written notice within ten (10) days following the expiration of such 60-day period. In the event of such revocation, Tenant shall forfeit all rights to thereafter exercise any option under this Lease and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the initial term, or then Option Term, as applicable. If Tenant does not revoke its exercise and elects to proceed with the determination of market rent, then the monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent payable during the Option Term shall be determined by appraisal in the following manner: If Landlord and Tenant can agree on a single appraiser, then the rate set by such appraiser as set forth below shall be the Base Rent for the Option Term. If the parties cannot agree on a single appraiser, then each party, by giving written notice to the other party, shall appoint as an appraiser an experienced commercial real estate agent in the area in which the Premises are located. Said appointment shall be made within ten (10) days following the expiration of the sixty (60) day period aforesaid, and if one of the parties does not appoint an appraiser within that time, the single appraiser named shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the monthly Base Rent for the Option Term. If the two appraisers are appointed as provided herein, each shall independently prepare an estimate of the market rent within sixty (60) days. If the higher of the two estimates so determined is within ten percent (10%) of the lower estimate, then the monthly Base Rent to be paid by Tenant during the Option Term shall be the average of the amounts determined by the appraisers. If the difference between the two estimates exceeds ten percent (10%) of the lower one, the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications set forth hereinabove within ten (10) days thereafter who will likewise independently estimate the market rate within sixty (60) days after the appointment. The average of the two closest appraisals shall be set as the monthly Base Rent. Each party shall pay the fees of the appraiser appointed by such party and the parties will share equally the fees of any third appraiser appointed pursuant to this Section A-2.1. Notwithstanding the above, the Base Rent payable by Tenant during each Option Term shall be in addition to all Additional Rent and other sums and charges payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the options granted herein are personal to Tenant and may not be assigned with an assignment of this Lease except in connection with an assignment to an entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant (as defined in Article 20 of this Lease) or which is a successor to Tenant by merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of Tenant's assets with Landlord's prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.
Options to Extend Term Tenant shall have two (2) options (each, an “Option”) to extend the Term by five (5) years each 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 an Option shall be on all the same terms and conditions as this Lease, except as follows:
Options to Extend Provided there exists no uncured Event of Default under any of this Lease, the Related Leases and the Other Leases at the time Lessee exercises any option to extend (in accordance with this Article XVIII), Lessee will have the right to extend this Lease for two (2) periods of ten (10) years each (each such additional term shall be referred to herein as an "Extended Term"), commencing immediately following the end of the Initial Term or the immediately preceding Extended Term, as the case may be; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything stated in this Paragraph 18.1 or elsewhere in this Lease, Lessee shall not be entitled to exercise its option to extend this Lease for any Extended Term (and any such option to extend shall automatically expire and terminate) unless Lessee concurrently exercises its option to extend all the Related Leases for the same period, as provided in Article XVIII of the Related Leases. The Lease during any Extended Term shall be on the same terms and conditions as during the Initial Term, except that the Minimum Rent shall be determined as set forth in Paragraph 18.2 below. In the event Lessee desires to exercise any option to extend granted in this Article XVIII, Lessee shall give Landlord written notice ("Notice to Extend") not less than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the immediately preceding Extended Term, as the case may be. If Lessee fails to give Lessor any such notice, then Lessor shall give Lessee written notice that Lessor has not received Lessee's Notice to Extend. If Lessee fails to deliver to Lessor the Notice to Extend within ten (10) days thereafter, Lessee shall be deemed to have elected not to extend this Lease and the Related Leases, such option to extend and all future options to extend granted in this Article XVIII or in the Related Leases shall be null and void and of no further force or effect.
OPTION TO RENEW Provided Tenant is not, and has not been (more than two (2) times), in default under any of the terms and conditions contained herein, Tenant shall have two (2) additional consecutive five (5) year options to renew and extend the Rental Term as provided herein (“Option”). The Option shall only be exercised by Tenant delivering written notice thereof to Landlord no earlier than the date which is twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Rental Term and no later than the date which is nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Rental Term (the “Option Notice”). The Base Monthly Rent during the first year of each extension periods shall be the lesser of: (i) the then current Fair Market Rate (as defined) for comparable space within the Project, and (ii) the Base Monthly Rent then in effect for the Leased Premises during the last month of the initial Rental Term (increasing each year thereafter by 3%, compounded). “Fair Market Rate” means the market rate for rent chargeable for the Leased Premises based upon the following factors applicable to the Leased Premises or any comparable premises: rent, escalation, term, size, expense stop, tenant allowance, existing tenant finishes, parking availability, and location and proximity to services. Within thirty (30) days of Option Notice, Tenant shall notify Landlord of Tenant’s option of Fair Market Rate for the applicable renewal period. If Landlord disagrees with Tenant’s opinion of the Fair Market Rate, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s opinion of Fair Market Rate within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Tenant’s opinion of Fair Market Rate (“Landlord’s Value Notice”). If the parties are unable to resolve their differences within thirty (30) days thereafter, Landlord or Tenant, at its sole option, may terminate this Lease, effective as of the last day of the then-current Rental Term. Alternatively, Tenant and Landlord may mutually agree to submit the determination of Fair Market Rate to a “Market Assessment Process,” as provided in Exhibit “F” – Market Assessment Process.
Option to Extend Lease Term At the expiration of the original Lease Term, Tenant may extend this Lease as to the entire Premises or a portion of the Premises for two (2) extended terms of five (5) years each (each an “Extended Term”) by giving Landlord written notice (the “Option Notice”) of its intention to do so not later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the original Lease Term, and thereafter twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the applicable Extended Term; provided, however, that Tenant is not in material default beyond any applicable notice and cure period under the Lease on the date of giving such notice or on the date of commencement of such Extended Term. The Option Notice shall set forth Tenant’s election to extend the Lease for all or a portion of the Premises. If Tenant elects to extend the Lease for only a portion of the Premises, the portion of the Premises for which Tenant elects not to extend the Lease shall be: (i) either located entirely on one floor of the Premises or located on one entire floor and a portion of the other floor; (ii) a minimum of 15,000 RSF; (iii) adjacent to a window line and easily accessible; and (iv) shall be in a readily marketable and leasable location. Landlord shall be responsible for any and all costs to separate the portion of the Premises for which Tenant elects not to extend the Lease from the remainder of the Premises such that the space is a separate easily accessible and readily marketable space promptly following the commencement of the applicable Extended Term. Any termination of the entire Lease shall result in automatic termination of this option. Tenant’s right to extend the Lease Term provided herein is personal to Tenant and may not be assigned or otherwise transferred except in connection with a permitted assignment of this Lease, including to a Tenant’s Affiliate. The Extended Term shall be upon all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that the following rights of Tenant during the original Lease Term shall not apply during such Extended Term unless granted as part of the Fair Market Rental: (a) any right to rent-free possession; (b) any right to further extension of the Lease Term beyond the Extended Terms set forth herein above; (c) any right to continue to pay the same Base Rent; (d) any right to additional Tenant Allowance; (e) any right to terminate the Extended Term early; (f) any right to continue to exclude HVAC Capital Expenditures; (g) cost of security for the Building; and (h) the right to the continuation of any cap on Controllable Operating Expenses from the previous year (it being understood that the Operating Expenses for the first twelve (12) months of each new Extended Term shall be the actual Operating Expenses without any cap and thereafter the cap set forth in Section 4.2(e) shall apply). Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that the Base Rent during each Extended Term shall be equal to ninety-five (95%) of the Base Rent component of the “Fair Market Rental” and one hundred percent (100%) of the economic concessions, including without limitation, free rent, improvement allowance, base year and other monetary concessions, component of the Fair Market Rental for the Premises, as determined by as follows:
Term and Renewal This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Date and shall remain in effect for a period of three years from and after the Live Date (the “Initial Term”), and thereafter shall automatically renew for successive three year terms (each such period, a “Renewal Term”) unless terminated by any party giving written notice of non-renewal at least one hundred eighty days prior to the last day of the then current term to each other party hereto.
Modification, Extension and Renewal of Options The Board or a duly appointed committee thereof, may modify, extend or renew this Option or accept the surrender thereof (to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of a new option in substitution therefore (to the extent not theretofore exercised), subject at all times to the Code and applicable securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, no modification shall, without the consent of the Recipient, alter to the Recipient’s detriment or impair any rights of Recipient hereunder.
Term and Annual Renewal The term of this Agreement shall be from the date of its approval by the vote of a majority of the Board of each Issuer, and it shall continue in effect from year to year thereafter only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of its Board, and the vote of a majority of those members of the Board who are neither parties to the Agreement nor interested persons of any such party, cast at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. “Approved at least annually” shall mean approval occurring, with respect to the first continuance of the Agreement, during the 90 days prior to and including the date of its termination in the absence of such approval, and with respect to any subsequent continuance, during the 90 days prior to and including the first anniversary of the date upon which the most recent previous annual continuance of the Agreement became effective. The effective date of the Agreement with respect to each Fund is identified in the Schedule A of this Agreement.
Option to Extend Term Tenant shall have the option to extend the term of this Lease, at the minimum rental set forth in Section 3.1(c) and otherwise upon all the terms and provisions set forth herein with respect to the initial term of this Lease, for one (1) additional term of five (5) years, commencing upon the expiration of the initial term hereof; provided, however, that such option shall be exercisable solely with respect to one of the following two configurations of space: either (a) with respect to the entire Premises covered by this Lease on the date of exercise of such option, or (b) with respect to the entire Premises located in the 2071 Building but not with respect to any portion of the Premises located in the 2025 Building (if applicable). Exercise of such option shall be by written notice to Landlord not less than nine (9) months and not more than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial term hereof. If Tenant is in default hereunder, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, on the date of such notice or on the date the extended term is to commence, then the exercise of the option shall be of no force or effect, the extended term shall not commence and this Lease shall expire at the end of the initial term of this Lease (or at such earlier time as Landlord may elect pursuant to the default provisions of this Lease). If Tenant properly exercises its extension option under this Section, then all references in this Lease (other than in this Section 2.6 itself) to the “term” of this Lease shall be construed to include the extension term thus elected by Tenant. The extension option granted herein is personal to Tenant, and may not be exercised (except with Landlord’s prior written consent, in Landlord’s sole discretion) by any assignee of Tenant’s interest under this Lease or by any subtenant. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 2.6, Tenant shall have no right to extend the term of this Lease beyond its prescribed term.
Extension Options Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.7, Borrower shall have the option (the “First Extension Option”), by written notice (the “First Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender no later than ten (10) days prior to the Initial Stated Maturity Date, to extend the Maturity Date to November 7, 2022 (the “First Extended Maturity Date”, and such extended term, the “First Extended Term”). In the event Borrower shall have exercised the First Extension Option, Borrower shall have the option (the “Second Extension Option”), by written notice (the “Second Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender no later than ten (10) days prior to the First Extended Maturity Date, to extend the First Extended Maturity Date to November 7, 2023 (the “Second Extended Maturity Date”, and such extended term, the “Second Extended Term”). In the event Borrower shall have exercised each of the First Extension Option and the Second Extension Option, Borrower shall have the option (the “Third Extension Option”), by written notice (the “Third Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender no later than ten (10) days prior to the Second Extended Maturity Date, to extend the Second Extended Maturity Date to November 7, 2024 (the “Third Extended Maturity Date”, and such extended term, the “Third Extended Term”). The First Extension Notice shall be revocable at any time and for any reason by Borrower prior to the Initial Stated Maturity Date, the Second Extension Notice shall be revocable at any time and for any reason by Borrower prior to the then First Extended Maturity Date and the Third Extension Notice shall be revocable at any time and for any reason by Borrower prior to the then Second Extended Maturity Date, but Borrower shall pay Lender’s actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such revocation (excluding breakage costs). Borrower’s right to so extend the Maturity Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent prior to each extension hereunder:
