Expansion Premises In addition to the Original Premises, commencing on the Expansion Premises Commencement Date (as defined below), Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, the Expansion Premises.
Lease Commencement Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Lessor, for any reason whatsoever, including Lessor's negligence except as provided for in Article 27(b), cannot deliver possession of the Premises, as provided for in Article 27(a), to Lessee at the commencement of the agreed Term as set forth in Article 2, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Lessor be liable to Lessee for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, but in that event, the Term shall be for the full term as specified above to commence from and after the date Lessor shall have delivered possession of the Premises to Lessee or from the date Lessor would have delivered possession of the Premises to Lessee but for Lessee's failure to timely supply to Lessor such drawings and/or information required by Exhibit C or for any other reason attributable to Lessee (herein the "Commencement Date") and to expire midnight of the day immediately preceding Term anniversary of the Commencement Date, and if requested by Lessor, Lessor and Lessee shall, ratify and confirm said Commencement and Expiration Dates by completing and signing Exhibit G attached hereto and made a part hereof.
Early Occupancy If Tenant occupies the Property prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant's occupancy of the Property shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Lease. Early occupancy of the Property shall not advance the expiration date of this Lease. Tenant shall pay Base Rent and all other charges specified in this Lease for the early occupancy period.
Ready for Occupancy For purposes of Section 1.3.2 of this Agreement, the Premises shall be deemed “Ready for Occupancy” upon the substantial completion of the Tenant Improvement Work. Subject to Section 4.2 below, the Tenant Improvement Work shall be deemed to be “substantially complete” upon the completion of the Tenant Improvement Work pursuant to the Approved Construction Drawings (as reasonably determined by Landlord), with the exception of any details of construction, mechanical adjustment or any other similar matter the non-completion of which does not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises.
Expansion Space As used in this paragraph, the term “Expansion Space” means any space in the Building which, at any time during the Lease Term, is occupied by a Person other than Landlord under a written lease with Landlord, and the term “Tenant’s Expansion Space” means Expansion Space which Tenant has elected to lease as provided in this paragraph. Landlord agrees to notify Tenant promptly after Landlord learns that any Expansion Space is or will become available. Subject to the prior rights of other tenants to whom Landlord has granted substantially similar rights, Tenant has the option to lease any Expansion Space which Landlord notifies Tenant is or will become available. If Tenant gives Landlord notice of its exercise of this option within thirty (30) days after notification from Landlord of the availability of the Expansion Space and if no Event of Default exists when Tenant’s notice is given, this Lease will be deemed to be amended to include Tenant’s Expansion Space as part of the Premises for the remainder of the Lease Term upon all of the same terms contained in this Lease except that (i) the Rentable Area of the Premises will be amended to include Tenant’s Expansion Space; (ii) Tenant’s Share will be increased to include the rentable area of Tenant’s Expansion Space; (iii) the Term Commencement Date with respect to Tenant’s Expansion Space will be the earlier of sixty (60) days after the date on which Tenant’s Expansion Space becomes vacant and ready for occupancy (provided that date is at least sixty (60) days after Tenant exercises its option to lease the Expansion Space), or the date on which the Expansion Space is first occupied by Tenant; (iv) if Tenant’s Expansion Space contains a rentable area of 10,000 square feet or more, and if there are less than three (3) Lease Years remaining in the Lease Term, the Lease Term will be extended to include three (3) full years from the Term Commencement Date with respect to Tenant’s Expansion Space; and (v) subject to adjustment during each Fixed Rental Period as provided in Exhibit E, Basic Rent for each year of the remaining Lease Term (as it may be extended) will be the greater of (a) the Basic Rent last paid by the Person most recently occupying Tenant’s Expansion Space or (b) Market Rent determined as provided in the Rent Rider attached as Exhibit E. If Tenant exercises this option, Tenant’s Expansion Space will be leased to Tenant in its “as is” condition and Tenant will, at its expense and in compliance with the provisions of Section 7.06, design and construct all Improvements desired by Tenant for its use and occupancy. Landlord and Tenant agree to execute such amendments to this Lease and other instruments as either of them considers necessary or desirable to reflect Tenant’s exercise of this option.
Rent Commencement Date The "Rent Commencement Date" shall be the date that Tenant first uses the Premises or any portion thereof for any purpose permitted under this lease. In the event this lease pertains to a building or building interior finish to be constructed, the "Rent Commencement Date" shall be the date upon which the buildings and other improvements erected and to be erected upon the premises shall have been substantially completed in accordance with the plans and specifications described on Exhibit "C" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, provided however, that if Landlord shall be delayed in such substantial completion as a result of: (i) Tenant's failure to agree to plans, specifications, and cost estimates, within a reasonable period of time; (ii) Tenant's request for materials, finishes or installations other than Landlord's standard; (iii) Tenant's changes in plans: the commencement date and the payment of rent hereunder shall be accelerated by the number of days of such delay, and provided further that if Landlord cannot substantially complete the premises as a result of any events (i) through (iii) above, Landlord may as its election complete so much of Landlord's work as may be practical under the circumstances and, by written notice to Tenant, establish the commencement date as the date of such partial completion, subject to any applicable accelerations due to delays resulting from events (i) through (iii) above. Taking possession by Tenant shall be deemed conclusively to establish that said buildings and other improvements have been completed in accordance with the plans and specifications and that the premises are in good and satisfactory condition, as of when possession was so taken. Tenant acknowledges that no representations as to the repair of the premises have been made by Landlord, unless such are expressly set forth in the lease. After such "Rent Commencement Date" Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance of delivery of the premises. In the event of any dispute as to substantial completion of work performed, execute or required to be performed by Landlord, the certificate of Landlord's architect or general contractor shall be conclusive.
Additional Premises Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to expand the Premises to include an additional fifteen thousand four hundred ten (15,410) square feet of Rentable Area located on the first (1st) floor, as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Additional Premises”) on July 1, 2012 (the “Additional Premises Delivery Date”). In the event Landlord determines the Additional Premises will be ready for delivery to Tenant in the Required Condition on the Additional Premises Delivery Date, within ten (10) business days prior to the Additional Premises Delivery Date, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a written amendment to the Lease, which amendment shall provide, unless otherwise agreed in writing, (a) that the commencement date of the Additional Premises shall be the Additional Premises Delivery Date (the “Additional Premises Commencement Date”), (b) that, as of the Additional Premises Commencement Date, the Premises under the Lease shall be increased to include the Additional Premises for a total of sixty-one thousand four hundred forty-four (61,444) square feet of Rentable Area (together, the Premises and the Additional Premises shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Total Premises”), (c) the new Basic Annual Rent applicable to the Total Premises, which shall commence on the Additional Premises Commencement Date and shall be as further described in Section 4.2 of this Amendment, (d) Tenant’s new Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses as of the Additional Premises Commencement Date, which Pro Rata Share shall equal one hundred percent (100%) of the Building and thirty-three and 51/100 percent (33.51%) of the Project and (e) that, in addition to the parking which Tenant is entitled to under the terms of the Lease with respect to the original Premises, Tenant, for so long as Tenant leases the Additional Premises, shall have a non-exclusive license to use the parking facilities serving the Building in common on an unreserved basis with other tenants of the Building and the Project at a ratio of 3.3 parking spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet of Additional Premises, which amounts to fifty-one (51) additional parking spaces, which number shall include three (3) additional Reserved Spaces. In the event the Additional Premises is not ready for delivery to Tenant in the Required Condition on the Additional Premises Delivery Date, then (x) this Amendment and the Lease shall not be void or voidable, (y) Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom and (z) the new Basic Annual Rent applicable to the Premises shall be as further described in Section 4.3 of this Amendment.
Lease Commencement Date The earlier to occur of (i) the date upon which Tenant first commences to conduct business in the Premises, and (ii) the later to occur of (A) November 1, 2018 and (B) the date upon which the Premises are Ready for Occupancy (as that term is defined in Section 5.1 of the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Tenant Work Letter”)).
Landlord’s Work Landlord shall construct the base-building elements of the Building (the "Base Building Work"), the sitework on the Land, and the parking structure and surface parking areas on the Land, all in accordance with the Design Specifications attached hereto as Schedule I (collectively, "Landlord's Work"). All of Landlord's Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with plans and specifications ("Landlord's Plans") mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant's approval of Landlord's Plans shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Tenant shall not be entitled to condition its approval of Landlord's Plans upon the inclusion therein of any design specifications that are inconsistent with the Design Specifications attached hereto as Schedule I (including requiring a higher performance standard than any performance standard expressly set forth in Schedule I). Tenant shall respond to any request for approval of Landlord's Plans, or any portion or progress set thereof, or any modifications thereto, as promptly as reasonably possible and in any event within ten (10) business days in the case of the original complete set of Landlord's Plans and any structural modifications thereto and within two (2) business days in the case of any nonstructural modifications to Landlord's Plans, and Tenant's failure to respond within such time periods shall be referred to herein and in the Lease as a "Tenant Delay." In the event Tenant disapproves Landlord's Plans or any portion thereof or any modifications thereto, Tenant's notice of disapproval shall specify in detail the reasonable basis for such disapproval. Landlord shall promptly make such revisions to Landlord's Plans as may be necessary to address Tenant's reasonable objections, and shall resubmit Landlord's Plans to Tenant for Tenant's approval. Tenant shall review such revised plans as promptly as reasonably possible and notify Landlord whether Tenant approves or reasonably disapproves Landlord's Plans as modified. This process shall be repeated, if necessary, until Tenant's reasonable objections to Landlord's Plans have been addressed and Tenant has approved Landlord's Plans. After approval of Landlord's Plans, Tenant shall have the right to initiate changes to Landlord's Plans or Landlord's Work, subject to (i) Landlord's approval of any such proposed change, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) Landlord's and Tenant's mutual agreement concerning (and execution of a change order or other written confirmation of) (A) any net increase in design or construction costs resulting from such change, all of which increased costs shall be borne solely by Tenant, and (B) any delay such change will cause in the completion of Landlord's Work or the achievement of any milestone date(s), which delay shall not extend the Lease Commencement Date or the commencement of Tenant's rental obligations under the Lease (but shall appropriately extend any affected milestone date(s)) and shall be deemed a "Tenant Delay" for purposes hereof and of the Lease. Landlord shall be responsible for causing Landlord's Work to comply with all applicable legal requirements, including (without limitation) requirements of building codes, environmental laws and the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Landlord shall indemnify Tenant and hold it harmless with respect to any loss, cost, damage or liability resulting from Landlord's breach of this obligation (which indemnification shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease). In constructing the Base Building Work, Landlord shall perform and install all work and materials designated "Base Building" in Schedule II attached hereto. In performing the Base Building Work, Landlord shall use best efforts to achieve the milestone dates set forth in Schedule III attached hereto. In the event Landlord fails to achieve any of said milestone dates, except to the extent such failure is caused by any Tenant Delay, the December 29, 1995 date set forth in Section 3.2 of the Lease shall be extended by one (1) day for each day of delay in achieving the milestone date; provided, however, that such extension shall not occur if (and then only to the extent) Landlord and Tenant mutually agree and acknowledge in writing that the completion of the Tenant Work (as defined below) was not delayed by reason of the delay in achieving Landlord's milestone date. Tenant agrees to use good faith reasonable efforts to counter the effect of any delay by Landlord in achieving any milestone date; however, Tenant shall not be obligated to expend any additional amounts in such efforts (e.g., by employing overtime labor) unless Landlord agrees in advance to bear any incremental cost associated with such efforts (whether or not such efforts are ultimately successful).
Rental Abatement Provided that any damage to either or both of the Property and the Premises is not caused by, or is not the result of acts or omissions by, any or all of Tenant and Tenant’s Parties, if (a) the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty thereby causing the Premises to be inaccessible or (b) the Premises are partially damaged by fire or other casualty, the Rent shall be proportionally abated to the extent of any actual loss of use of the Premises by Tenant.
