Renewal Option Landlord hereby grants to Tenant, and Tenant shall have, the right and option to extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) period of five (5) years (the “Renewal Term”). The Renewal Term shall commence upon the day next following the last day of the initial Term. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of its election to extend this Lease for the Renewal Term not less than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the initial Term, time being of the essence with respect to such notification. Notice thereof shall be deemed sufficient if given in the manner hereinafter provided. If Landlord does not receive such written notice as and when required herein, the Renewal Term shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, and this Lease shall expire as of the then-scheduled expiration date. The Renewal Term shall be upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, except that the Fixed Rent shall be increased by adding the CPI Adjustment Amount (defined below) to the then-current Fixed Rent. The “CPI Adjustment Amount” is calculated by multiplying the Fixed Rent payable for the last year of the initial Term by a ratio, the numerator of which is the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, Cleveland-Akron, All Items (1982-1984=100) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor (the “Index”) on the date nearest the commencement date of the Renewal Term, and the denominator of which is the Index as of the first day of the third Lease Year. If, during the Lease Term the Bureau of Labor Statistics ceases to maintain the Index, then such other index or standard as will most nearly accomplish the aim or purpose of the Index shall be used in determining the amount of any such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to renew this Lease if, either at the time Tenant notifies Landlord of its election to extend this Lease or upon the commencement date of the Renewal Term, Tenant is in default hereunder beyond any applicable grace or cure period.
Lessor Termination Option If a Hazardous Substance Condition occurs during the term of this Lease, unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which case Lessee shall make the investigation and remediation thereof required by the Applicable Requirements and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but subject to Lessor's rights under Paragraph 6.2(d) and Paragraph 13), Lessor may, at Lessor's option, either (i) investigate and remediate such Hazardous Substance Condition, if required, as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) if the estimated cost to remediate such condition exceeds twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater, give written notice to Lessee, within thirty (30) days after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such Hazardous Substance Condition, of Lessor's desire to terminate this Lease as of the date sixty (60) days following the date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to give a termination notice, Lessee may, within ten (10) days thereafter, give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay the amount by which the cost of the remediation of such Hazardous Substance Condition exceeds an amount equal to twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within thirty (30) days following such commitment. In such event, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such remediation as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available. If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the required funds or assurance thereof within the time provided, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in Lessor's notice of termination.
Termination Option Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall have the one-time option (the “Termination Option”) to terminate this Lease, effective as of the last day of the sixtieth (60th) full calendar month of the Term (the “Termination Date”), by providing Landlord with written notice of such Termination Option election (the “Termination Notice”). Such Termination Notice shall be effective only if it is given to Landlord at least nine (9) full calendar months prior to the Termination Date (the “Termination Notice Deadline”); accordingly, if Tenant has not given its Termination Notice to Landlord prior to the Termination Notice Deadline, this Termination Option shall expire and be of no further force or effect, and Tenant shall have no right or option to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Special Stipulation No. 4 at any time after the Termination Notice Deadline. As a condition precedent to any termination of this Lease pursuant to the provisions of this Special Stipulation No. 4, in addition to Tenant’s delivery of its Termination Notice, Tenant must have delivered to Landlord with its Termination Notice, an amount as a termination fee (collectively, the “Termination Fee”) equal to the sum of (i) Ninety Thousand Three Hundred Twenty-Five and 14/100Dollars ($90,325.14), plus (ii) all unamortized Transaction Costs, as hereinafter defined, incurred in connection with this Lease and incurred by Landlord for any other expansion space leased by Tenant, all amortized using an interest rate of nine percent (9%) per annum over the ninety-one (91) month term of this Lease, and (iii) legal fees incurred by Landlord in connection with this Lease and any future amendment whereby Tenant is leasing additional space. “Transaction Costs” shall include generally, without limitation, any tenant improvement allowance, turnkey construction costs, leasing commissions, free rent and cash allowances or similar costs and expenses provided to Tenant or incurred by Landlord. With respect to any future expansion space, the Transaction Costs will be amortized over the period commencing on the effective date of Tenant’s lease of such expansion space through the expiration date of Tenant’s lease of such expansion space. It is hereby acknowledged that any such amount required to be paid by Tenant in connection with such early termination is not a penalty but a reasonable pre-estimate of the damages which would be incurred by Landlord as a result of such early termination of this Lease (which damages are impossible to calculate more precisely) and, in that regard, constitutes liquidated damages with respect to such loss. Tenant shall continue to be liable for its obligations under this Lease to and through the Termination Date, including, without limitation, Additional Rent that accrues pursuant to the terms of this Lease, with all of such obligations surviving the early termination of this Lease. The rights granted to Tenant under this Special Stipulation No. 4 are personal to the named Tenant, and in the event of any assignment of this Lease or sublease by Tenant, this Termination Option shall thenceforth be void and of no further force or effect. Tenant’s rights under this Special Stipulation No. 4 shall be effective only if Tenant is not in a default (regardless of any notice and/or cure period) under the Lease, either at the time of the delivery of the Termination Notice or as of the Termination Date.
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:
Option Term This option shall have a term of ten (10) years measured from the Grant Date and shall accordingly expire at the close of business on the Expiration Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with Paragraph 5 or 6.
Extended Term Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term for two (2) consecutive five (5) year periods (the "FIRST EXTENDED TERM" and "SECOND EXTENDED TERM", respectively) on all the terms and conditions contained in this Lease including, without limitation, continuation of the adjustment of the Base Rent on an annual basis as provided in Section 3.3 below (provided only that upon commencement of the First Extended Term the only remaining option to extend the Term shall be the Second Extended Term and upon exercise of the option with respect to the Second Extended Term, no further right to extend the Term shall exist). Tenant shall deliver, if at all, written notice of its exercise of the option ("OPTION NOTICE") to Landlord at least six (6) months but not more than one (1) year before the expiration of the Term or First Extended Term, as the case may be. In the event Tenant fails to deliver the applicable Option Notice within the time allowed, Landlord shall deliver written notice to Tenant of Tenant's failure to deliver the Option Notice, and Tenant shall then have thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice within which to deliver the Option Notice, if at all, to Landlord. In the event (and only in the event) that, Tenant fails to deliver an Option Notice to Landlord within such thirty (30) days, Tenant shall be considered to have elected not to extend the Term of this Lease and thereafter, Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term of this Lease. References in this Lease to the "Term" shall include the initial Term of fifteen (15) years and shall, in addition, include the First Extended Term and the Second Extended Term, if applicable.
Option to Extend On the conditions (which conditions LESSOR may waive, at its election, by written notice to LESSEE at any time) that LESSEE is not in default of its covenants and obligations under the Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, both as of the time of exercise of the Option to Extend, as hereinafter defined, and at the commencement of the Extension Period, as hereinafter defined, then LESSEE shall have the right to extend the term hereof (the “Option to Extend”) for one additional term of five years, ending on March 31, 2019 (the “Extension Period’), to commence immediately upon the expiration of the then current term. LESSEE may exercise such Option to Extend by giving written notice to LESSOR (the “Extension Notice”) on or before the date which no less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term. Such Extension Period shall be upon the same terms and conditions of this Lease, except that the Base Rent payable shall be set at the then fair market effective rent for the Leased Premises. In no event, however, shall the Base Rent be less than the then-current Base Rent at the expiration of the current Term. For the purpose of this Section, fair market effective rent shall mean the Base Rent plus such additional financial terms in the nature of rent and rent adjustments customarily then being included in leases for similar space within the greater Waltham area. LESSEE shall, during the Extension Period, continue to pay its proportionate share of LESSOR’s Real Estate Taxes and Operating Costs. Said fair market effective rent for the Leased Premises shall be agreed upon by LESSOR and LESSEE; provided, however, if LESSOR and LESSEE are unable to agree on said fair market effective rent within thirty (30) days of the date of the Extension Notice, said fair market effective rent shall be conclusively determined by three (3) appraisers. Within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, LESSOR and LESSEE shall each select an appraiser, who shall select a third. Should the two appraisers fail to agree on a third within fifteen (15) days of the date on which such appraisers have been appointed, or if either LESSOR or LESSEE shall fail to appoint an appraiser within the time provided, such appraiser shall be appointed by the American Institute of Appraisers. Each party shall bear the cost of the appraiser selected by such party, and the cost of the third appraiser shall be shared equally by LESSOR and LESSEE. If the three appraisers are unable to agree upon such fair market effective rent within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the third appraiser, the fair market effective rent shall be that determined by the appraiser not selected by either LESSOR or LESSEE.
Early Termination Option Provided that (a) Tenant has not leased any Offer Space, (b) no Event of Default is outstanding at the time of the Termination Notice, and (c) no portion of the Premises has been subleased for a term extending beyond the Early Termination Date, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease in its entirety effective as of December 31, 2022 (the “Early Termination Date”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (the “Early Termination Right”). In order to exercise the Early Termination Right, by no later than December 31, 2021, Tenant must (i) deliver to Landlord an irrevocable written notice clearly exercising the Early Termination Right (the “Termination Notice”), and (ii) pay Landlord a fee in the amount calculated pursuant to Exhibit E (the “Termination Fee”), and (iii) if the Additional Advance is advanced under Exhibit C, pay Landlord the entire outstanding balance of the Additional Advance including all principal and interest accrued through the payment date. Upon request from Tenant any time after November 1, 2021, Landlord will provide an estimated calculation of the Termination Fee. Tenant shall pay the amount set forth in such estimate when it delivers the Termination Notice and when the actual amount of the Termination Fee is calculated, any overpayment shall be credited or refunded back to Tenant or Tenant shall make an additional payment, as applicable. Time is of the essence of this provision and neither late notice nor late payment shall be effective. If Tenant does not deliver a Termination Notice and the Termination Fee by the above deadline, Tenant’s Early Termination Right shall immediately terminate and shall be of no further force or effect. Tenant acknowledges that this provision was specifically negotiated by the parties and is a material term of this Lease and Tenant hereby waives all equitable claims and defenses that might extend the period within which Tenant may exercise the Early Termination Right or pay the Termination Fee. If Tenant does not pay all sums due under this Lease in a timely manner any time after delivering a Termination Notice, then in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord, Landlord shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to void the Termination Notice and the Early Termination Right shall not take effect. If Tenant exercises its Early Termination Right, the Extension Options and the Right of First Opportunity shall immediately terminate and shall be of no further force and effect.
Expiration/Termination The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and expire at the end of the period specified in the “Term” Section of the Business Terms Exhibit, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9 or extended by mutual written agreement of the parties (the “Term”). Civitas may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Consultant (a) at any time for Cause (as defined below) or (b) at any time after Consultant’s commencement of employment with a 3rd party for greater than twenty (20) hours per week. Consultant may terminate this Agreement at any time without cause upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Civitas. Any expiration or termination of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to any obligation of either party that has accrued prior to the effective date of expiration or termination, provided that, if Civitas terminates this Agreement without Cause, then all consulting fees that would have been paid during the Term had Civitas not terminated the Agreement without Cause, shall be paid to Consultant in one lump sum upon the effective date of the termination of this Agreement. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, neither Consultant nor Civitas will have any further obligations under this Agreement, except that (a) Consultant will terminate all Consulting Services in progress in an orderly manner as soon as practicable and in accordance with a schedule agreed to by Civitas, unless Civitas specifies in the notice of termination that Consulting Services in progress should be completed; (b) Consultant will deliver to Civitas all Work Product made through expiration or termination; (c) Civitas will pay Consultant any monies due and owing Consultant under this Agreement and all authorized expenses actually incurred; (d) Consultant will immediately return to Civitas all Civitas Materials and other Confidential Information and copies thereof provided to Consultant under this Agreement; and (e) the terms, conditions and obligations under Sections 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 will survive expiration or termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean Consultant’s conviction of, or guilty plea to, a felony, (ii) Consultant’s commission of a fraudulent, illegal or materially dishonest act in connection with Consultant’s engagement by Civitas, as reasonably determined by Civitas’ Board of Directors acting in good faith, or (iii) Consultant’s willful and repeated failure or refusal to attempt to perform Consultant’s duties to Civitas or material breach of this Agreement or any other agreement between Civitas and Consultant.
Extension Option The Borrower may request that the Commitments be extended for up to two additional one year periods by providing not less than 30 days’ written notice (the date of such notice, a “Notice Date”) to the Administrative Agent prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date. If a Bank agrees, in its individual and sole discretion (and with the approval of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks, such approval, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), to extend its Commitment (such Bank, an “Extending Bank”), it will notify the Administrative Agent, in writing, of its decision to do so no later than 15 days after the applicable Notice Date (such extension decision, a “Commitment Extension”). The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, in writing, of the Banks’ decisions promptly upon receipt thereof and in any event not later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof. The Extending Banks’ Commitments will be extended for an additional year from the then current Maturity Date so long as (i) the Commitments of the Extending Banks (after giving effect to any assumption by any Extending Banks of Commitments of Declining Banks as described below), together with the Commitments of any New Banks that replace any Declining Banks, represent more than 50% of the Total Commitments then in effect, and (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrower to extend the Commitments, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.3 shall be satisfied. No Commitment Extension shall result in the then-existing Maturity Date being more than five (5) years from the effective date of such Commitment Extension. No Bank shall be required to consent to any such extension request or be required to increase its Commitment. The Maturity Date with respect to any Bank that declines or does not respond to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Commitments (a “Declining Bank”) shall remain the then-existing Maturity Date (without regard to any extension of the Commitments of other Banks); provided that the Borrower shall continue to have the right to replace any such Declining Bank (with respect to all or any portion of its Commitment) following the effectiveness of any such extension. The Borrower will have the right to accept Commitments from any Eligible Assignee that is not a Bank in an aggregate amount up to the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Declining Banks; provided that any Eligible Assignee proposed to be substituted for a Declining Bank (unless such Eligible Assignee is an affiliate of a Bank) must be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks, such approval, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Borrower may only extend the Maturity Date twice during the term of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.7.
