Tenant Delay If the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvement Work is delayed (a “Tenant Delay”) as a result of (a) any failure of Tenant to approve the Construction Pricing Proposal pursuant to Section 2.6 above on or before Tenant’s Approval Deadline; (b) Tenant’s failure to timely approve any matter requiring Tenant’s approval; (c) any breach by Tenant of this Work Letter or the Lease; (d) any request by Tenant for a revision to the Approved Construction Drawings (except to the extent such delay results from any failure of Landlord to perform its obligations under Section 2.7 above); (e) Tenant’s requirement for materials, components, finishes or improvements that are not available in a commercially reasonable time given the anticipated date of Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvement Work as set forth in this Agreement; (f) any change to the base, shell or core of the Premises or Building required by the Approved Construction Drawings; or (g) any other act or omission of Tenant or any of its agents, employees or representatives, then, notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, and regardless of when the Tenant Improvement Work is actually Substantially Completed, the Tenant Improvement Work shall be deemed to be Substantially Completed on the date on which the Tenant Improvement Work would have been Substantially Completed if no such Tenant Delay had occurred.
Tenant Delays A "Tenant Delay” shall be defined as any delay in the design, permitting or performance of the Base Building Work to the extent that such delay is actually caused by any act or, where there is a duty to act under this Lease, any failure to act by Tenant or Tenant's contractors, architects, engineers, or anyone else engaged by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvement Work as set forth in this Article III (including, without limitation, any delays resulting from the Approved Tenant Finishes under Section 3.l(C) above) and disclosed to Tenant as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any delays in the completion of the Base Building Work caused by Tenant’s use of non-union labor constitute a Tenant Delay hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no event shall be deemed a Tenant Delay unless and until Landlord has given Tenant written notice (the "Tenant Delay Notice") advising Tenant: (x) that a Tenant Delay is occurring and setting forth Landlord's good faith estimate as to the likely length of such Tenant Delay; (y) of the basis on which Landlord has determined that a Tenant Delay is occurring; and (z) the actions which Landlord believes that Tenant must take to eliminate such Tenant Delay. No event shall be deemed to be a Tenant Delay unless and until Tenant has failed to rectify the situation causing the Tenant Delay within forty-eight (48) hours after Tenant's receipt of the Tenant Delay Notice (which for the purposes of determining receipt may be delivered by hand to Tenant's Construction Representative, with copies to follow to Tenant at the notice address set forth in Section 1.2 of this Lease within five (5) days thereafter); provided, however, that if Tenant shall fail to eliminate the delay within the aforesaid 48-hour period, then the 48-hour cure period shall be included in the period of time charged to Tenant pursuant to such Tenant Delay Notice (it being understood and agreed that if Tenant shall in fact eliminate the Tenant Delay within the 48-hour cure period, no Tenant Delay shall be deemed to have occurred for the purposes of this Article III). In addition, any delay to the extent caused by (i) Landlord Delay or (ii) subject to the limitations of subsection (D) below, Tenant's Force Majeure (as defined in said subsection (D)) shall not constitute Tenant Delay. Tenant covenants that no Tenant Delay shall delay commencement of the Term or the obligation to pay Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent. The Delivery Dates and/or the date of substantial completion of the Base Building Work, as applicable, shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date when such Delivery Dates and/or date of substantial completion of the Base Building Work, as applicable, would have occurred but for any Tenant Delays, as determined by Landlord in the exercise of its good faith business judgment (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not be construed so as to relieve Landlord of its obligation to actually complete the Base Building Work, notwithstanding the fact that substantial completion may have been deemed to have occurred prior to actual completion as the result of Tenant Delays).
Landlord Delay Landlord’s (a) failure to comply with any time requirements expressly set forth in Paragraph 2.d. above with respect to Landlord’s obligation to provide notice of approval or disapproval of the Space Plan, Working Drawings or Change Orders, or (b) Landlord’s unreasonable interference with the completion of Tenant Improvements, including any failure or refusal of Landlord or Landlord’s agents or contractors to permit Tenant, its agents or contractors, access to and use of the Building or any Building facilities or services (including hoists, elevators, and loading docks) which access or use is reasonably required for the orderly and continuous performance of the work necessary to complete Tenant Improvements, are referred to collectively herein as “Landlord Delay” (provided that no Landlord Delay as described in clause (b) above will be deemed to have occurred unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord of the event which Tenant claims constitutes a Landlord Delay and Landlord has failed to cure such event within five (5) Business Days thereafter). Tenant will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages and/or construction delays in the event of an alleged Landlord Delay. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 2, if and to the extent Tenant reasonably incurs a net increased cost (taking into account any cost saving Landlord might have facilitated by its actions, including any Landlord Delay) of design or construction of the Tenant Improvements as a direct result of any Landlord Delay (as reasonably evidenced by Tenant, with supporting documentation), Landlord will be responsible for such reasonable increased costs and Landlord’s Allowance will be increased by the amount of such reasonable increased cost. Further, when determining whether a particular Landlord Delay delayed Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, the subject Landlord Delay shall be offset by any action or response by Landlord that achieved a reduction in Tenant’s construction schedule (each day saved in Tenant’s construction schedule being a “Schedule Saving Day”) and any aggregate Landlord Delay as described in this Paragraph 2.f. shall first be offset against, and reduced on a day-for-day basis by, the aggregate number of Schedule Saving Days. In the event of a disagreement between Landlord and Tenant as to whether a Landlord Delay has occurred and/or as to the application of this grammatical paragraph, either party may submit the issue to the dispute resolution procedure set forth in Paragraph 2.j. below. This Paragraph 2.f. is inapplicable to delays in Delivery, whether caused by Landlord, Landlord’s Contractor or otherwise (such delays being expressly covered by Paragraph 2.a. above) and this Paragraph 2.f. only applies to delays in the commencement or Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements following Delivery.
Force Majeure Delays In any case where either party hereto is required to do any act (other than the payment of money), delays caused by or resulting from Acts of God or Nature, war, civil commotion, fire, flood or other casualty, labor difficulties, shortages of labor or materials or equipment, government regulations, delay by government or regulatory agencies with respect to approval or permit process, unusually severe weather, or other causes beyond such party’s reasonable control the time during which act shall be completed, shall be deemed to be extended by the period of such delay, whether such time be designated by a fixed date, a fixed time or “a reasonable time.”
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).
Tenant’s Work During the Term Tenant may not perform any work, alterations, installations, additions, improvements, structural repairs or restorations to the Property (“Tenant’s Work”) without the prior written consent of Landlord which (i) in the case of alterations, additions, installations or improvements of a structural nature or involving the Building systems, may be granted or withheld by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion and (ii) in the case of alterations or improvements of a non-structural nature or not involving Building systems, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In connection with such consent, Tenant shall submit to Landlord such detailed plans, specifications, drawings and other materials reasonably requested by Landlord. Tenant may make such non-structural alterations and perform work of a decorative nature without Xxxxxxxx’s prior written consent. At Tenant’s sole cost, Xxxxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Xxxxxx (including signing applications) in obtaining any necessary permits for any Tenant’s Work that Xxxxxx is permitted to make hereunder. In all cases the Tenant’s Work shall be performed at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and by contractors selected by Xxxxxx. Tenant agrees that the Tenant’s plans and specifications shall be in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, that Tenant shall not commence construction until it obtains (if required) a building permit for Tenant’s Work, and that such Tenant’s Work shall be performed in accordance with the building permit, in compliance with applicable law and in accordance with the Tenant’s plans and specifications. As a condition of approving such Tenant's Work the Landlord may require the Tenant to maintain such additional insurance coverages (in addition to those required in Article 8 hereof) as the Landlord may reasonably require.
Excusable Delay The parties shall not be obligated to perform and shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder, if the performance of a non-monetary obligation required hereunder is prevented by the occurrence of any of the following, other than as the result of the financial inability of the party obligated to perform: acts of God, strikes, lock-outs, other industrial disturbances, acts of a public enemy, war or war-like action (whether actual, impending or expected and whether de jure or de facto), acts of terrorists, arrest or other restraint of government (civil or military), blockades, insurrections, riots, epidemics, landslides, lightning, earthquakes, fires, hurricanes, storms, floods, washouts, sink holes, civil disturbances, explosions, breakage or accident to equipment or machinery, confiscation or seizure by any government or public authority, nuclear reaction or radiation, radioactive contamination or other causes, whether of the kind herein enumerated or otherwise, that are not reasonably within the control of the party claiming the right to delay performance on account of such occurrence.
Excusable Delays Neither Party shall be held liable for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this Services Agreement by reason of any cause beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of civil or military authority, government regulations, embargoes, epidemics, war, terrorist acts, riots, fires, explosions, earthquakes, nuclear accidents, floods, strikes, power blackouts affecting facilities, inability to secure products or services of other persons or transportation facilities, or acts or omissions of transportation common carriers, provided that the Party so affected shall use reasonable commercial efforts to remove such causes of non-performance. Upon the occurrence of any event of force majeure, the Party whose performance is prevented shall promptly give written notice to the other Party and the Parties shall promptly confer in good faith to agree upon reasonable action to minimize the impact of such event on the Parties.
Landlord’s Termination Right Whether or not the Premises are affected, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, within 60 days following the date upon which Landlord receives notice of the Taking of all or a portion of the Real Property, the Building or the Premises, terminate this Lease, provided that Landlord elects to terminate leases (including this Lease) affecting at least 50% of the rentable area of the Building.
