By Tenant Tenant shall not make any alterations to or modifications of the Leased Premises or construct any improvements to or within the Leased Premises without Landlord’s prior written approval, and then not until Landlord shall have first approved, in writing, the plans and specifications therefore, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make alterations following not less than ten (10) business days notice to Landlord, but without Landlord’s prior approval, to the extent any such alteration is merely cosmetic in nature (i.e., re-painting and re-carpeting) and together with all other such alterations in any calendar year costs less than $20,000, and provided that such alteration does not (a) affect the exterior of the Building, (b) affect the structure of the Building or the systems and equipment of the Building, and/or (c) interfere with Building services or the use of the Property or the Building by other tenants or occupants. All such modifications, alterations or improvements, once so approved, shall be made, constructed or installed by Tenant at Tenant’s expense, using a licensed contractor first approved by Landlord, in substantial compliance with the Landlord-approved plans and specifications therefore. All work undertaken by Tenant shall be done in accordance with all Laws and in a good and workmanlike manner using new materials of good quality that match or complement the original improvements existing as of the Lease Commencement Date. Tenant shall not commence the making of any such modifications or alterations or the construction of any such improvements until (i) all required governmental approvals and permits shall have been obtained, (ii) all requirements regarding insurance imposed by this Lease have been satisfied, (iii) Tenant shall have given Landlord at least five business days prior written notice of its intention to commence such work so that Landlord may post and file notices of non-responsibility, and (iv) if requested by Landlord, Tenant shall have obtained contingent liability and broad form builder’s risk insurance in an amount satisfactory to Landlord to cover any perils relating to the proposed work not covered by insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to Article 9. In no event shall Tenant make any modifications, alterations or improvements to the Common Areas or any areas outside of the Leased Premises. As used in this Article, the term “modifications, alterations and/or improvements” shall include, without limitation, the installation of additional electrical outlets, overhead lighting fixtures, drains, sinks, partitions, doorways, or the like. If Landlord reserves the right to require Tenant to remove any alterations or modifications at the end of the Lease Term, and the cost of such removal and restoration together with the cost of removal and restoration of all other alterations and modifications which Landlord may require Tenant to remove exceeds $25,000.00, then as a condition to granting its consent, Landlord may require Tenant to increase the amount of its Security Deposit hereunder to cover such costs to the extent they exceed $25,000.00. Tenant shall pay Landlord’s reasonable costs to inspect the construction of Tenant’s alterations or modifications and to have Landlord’s architect revise Landlord’s drawings to show the work performed by Tenant.
REENTRY BY LANDLORD 17.1 Landlord reserves and shall at all times have the right to re-enter the Premises to inspect the same, to show said Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or tenants, and to alter, improve or repair the Premises and any portion of the Building, without abatement of rent, and may for that purpose erect, use and maintain scaffolding, pipes, conduits and other necessary structures and open any wall, ceiling or floor in and through the Building and Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, provided entrance to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and further provided that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. Landlord shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement and/or locations of entrances, or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, windows, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known. In the event that Landlord damages any portion of any wall or wall covering, ceiling, or floor or floor covering within the Premises, Landlord shall repair or replace the damaged portion to match the original as nearly as commercially reasonable but shall not be required to repair or replace more than the portion actually damaged. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned by any action of Landlord authorized by this Article 17.
Waiver by Tenant Tenant expressly waives the benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford the Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair.
INDEMNITY BY TENANT To the extent permitted by Law, Tenant hereby indemnifies, and agrees to protect, defend and hold the Indemnitees harmless, against any and all actions, claims, demands, liability, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for the defense thereof, arising from Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, from the undertaking of any Tenant Additions or repairs to the Premises, from the conduct of Tenant’s business on the Premises, or from any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of Tenant to be performed pursuant to the terms of this Lease, or from any willful act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, contractors, servants, employees, customers or invitees, in or about the Premises or the Property or any part of either. In case of any action or proceeding brought against the Indemnitees by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant covenants to defend such action or proceeding by counsel chosen by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion. Landlord reserves the right to settle, compromise or dispose of any and all actions, claims and demands related to the foregoing indemnity. The foregoing indemnity shall not operate to relieve Indemnitees of liability to the extent such liability is caused by the willful and wrongful act of Indemnitees. Further, the foregoing indemnity is subject to and shall not diminish any waivers in effect in accordance with Section 16.04 by Landlord or its insurers to the extent of amounts, if any, paid to Landlord under its “All-Risks” property insurance.
Maintenance by Tenant Except for Landlord’s obligations described in Section 12 above and any janitorial services provided by Landlord under Section 9 above, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, will keep and maintain the Premises in good, clean, sanitary, neat and fully operative condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear and damage due to casualty excepted, so as to maintain the condition of the Premises consistent with similar premises in first class buildings in the Market Area, which obligations of Tenant will include, without limitation, the maintenance, repair and replacement of all: (a) interior surfaces of exterior walls and demising walls; (b) interior walls, moldings, partitions and ceilings; (c) carpeting; (d) non-structural interior components; (e) interior windows, plate glass and doors; (f) kitchen or break-room fixtures, appliances and equipment; and (g) Tenant’s personal property situated in the Premises. Tenant will also pay or reimburse Landlord for (or, at Landlord’s option, perform) the repair or replacement of any waste or excessive or unreasonable wear and tear to the Premises or the Complex caused or permitted by Tenant. Any repairs or replacements performed by Tenant pursuant to this Section must be at least equal in quality and workmanship to the original work, be in accordance with all Laws and comply with Landlord’s sustainability practices, including any third-party rating systems concerning environmental compliance of the Building or Complex, as the same may change from time to time. At the expiration or early termination of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver up the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as at the Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or casualty loss (unless caused by Tenant) excepted.
Services Provided by Landlord Landlord will maintain the public and common areas of the Building and the Project, such as lobbies, stairs, elevators, landscaping, corridors, parking lots and public restrooms, in good order and condition except for damage occasioned by the act or negligence of Tenant. Landlord will furnish the water for common areas and with electricity for lighting and the operation of the elevator. It will be the responsibility of Tenant to maintain the leased premises. Landlord will not be liable for damages, nor will Tenant's obligation to pay Rent be abated, for Landlord's failure to furnish or for delay in the furnishing any of the foregoing services, if the failure or delay is caused by accident or conditions beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. The temporary failure to furnish any of the services will not be construed as an eviction of Tenant and will not relieve Tenant from the duty of observing and performing any of the provisions of this Lease so long as Landlord proceeds with reasonable diligence to correct any the failure.
Alterations by Tenant Tenant shall not make any alterations, renovations, improvements or other installations (collectively “Alterations”) in, on or to any part of the Premises (including, without limitation, any alterations of the front, signs, structural alterations, or any cutting or drilling into any part of the Premises or any securing of any fixture, apparatus, or equipment of any kind to any part of the Premises) unless and until Tenant shall have caused plans and specifications therefore to have been prepared, at Tenant’s expense, by an architect or other duly qualified person and shall have obtained Landlord’s approval thereof. Tenant shall submit to Landlord detailed drawings and plans of the proposed Alterations at the time Landlord’s approval is sought. If such approval is granted, Tenant shall cause the work described in such plans and specifications to be performed, at its expense, promptly, efficiently, competently and in a good and workmanlike manner by duly qualified and licensed persons or entities approved by Landlord, using first grade materials. All such work shall comply with all applicable codes, rules, regulations and ordinances. The Tenant shall at all times maintain fire insurance with extended coverage in an amount adequate to cover the cost of replacement of all alterations, decorations, additions or improvements to the Premises by Tenant in the event of fire or extended coverage loss. Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord certificates of such fire insurance policies, which shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give the Landlord ten (10) days notice of cancellation of such policies.
RE-ENTRY BY LANDLORD If Tenant shall default in the payment of any fixed rent or additional rent or any other sum or charge payable hereunder by Tenant to Landlord on any date upon which the sum becomes due, or if this Lease shall expire as in Article 16 hereof provided, Landlord of Landlord's agents and servants may immediately, or at any time thereafter, re-enter into or upon the premises, or any part thereof, in the name of the whole, either by summary dispossess proceedings or by any suitable action or proceeding at law, or by force or otherwise, without being liable to indictment, prosecution or damages therefor, and may repossess the same, and may remove any persons therefrom, to the end that Landlord may have, hold and enjoy the premises again as and of its first estate and interest therein. The words "re-enter", "re-entry" and "re-entered" as used in this Lease are not restricted to their technical legal meanings. In the event of any termination of this Lease under the provisions of Article 16 hereof or in the event that Landlord shall re-enter the premises under the provisions of this Article 17 or in the event of the termination of this Lease (or of re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law, Tenant shall thereupon pay to Landlord the fixed rent, additional rent and any other sum or charge payable hereunder by Tenant to Landlord up to the time of such termination of this Lease, or of such recovery of possession of the premises by Landlord, as the case may be, and shall also pay to Landlord damages as provided in Article 18 hereof. In the event of a breach of threatened breach on the part of the Tenant with respect to any of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions or conditions on the part of or on behalf of Tenant to be kept, observed or performed, Landlord shall also have the right of injunction. The specified remedies to which Landlord may resort hereunder are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which Landlord may lawfully be entitled at any time, and Landlord may invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for. In the event of (a) the termination of this Lease under the provisions of Article 16 hereof, (b) the re-entry of the premises by Landlord under the provisions of this Article 17, or (c) the termination of this Lease (or re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law by reason of default hereunder on the part of Tenant, Landlord shall be entitled to retain all monies, if any paid by Tenant to Landlord, whether as advance rent, security or otherwise, but such moneys shall be credited by Landlord against any fixed rent, additional rent or any other sum or charge due from Tenant at the time of such termination or re-entry or, at Landlord's option, against any damages payable by Tenant under Article 18 hereof or pursuant to law.
ENTRY BY LANDLORD Landlord shall at any and all times have the right to enter the Demised Premises to inspect the same, to show the Demised Premises to prospective purchasers, lenders or tenants and to post notices of non-responsibility. Landlord shall also have the right to conduct such maintenance and repair of or to the Demised Premises (or the Building) as Landlord may deem necessary, without abatement of Rent, and for that purpose may erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, always providing that the entrance to the Demised Premises shall not be unreasonably blocked thereby, and further provided that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of any such entry to Tenant and shall attempt to minimize interference with Tenant’s business. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages or for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Demised Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the Demised Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults, safes and files. Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency, in order to obtain entry to the Demised Premises without liability to Tenant except for any failure to exercise due care for Tenant’s property. Any entry to the Demised Premises obtained by Landlord by any of such means, or otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of the Demised Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Demised Premises or any portion thereof.
Tenant The complete name of every Tenant who will enter this lease with the intention of renting the Landlord’s property as a month-to-month rental is a necessary part of this document’s introduction. (3)
