Unavoidable Delays Delays due to acts of God, acts of public agencies, labor disputes, strikes, fires, freight embargoes, inability (despite the exercise of due diligence) to obtain supplies, materials, fuels or permits, or other causes or contingencies (excluding financial inability) beyond the reasonable control of Landlord or Tenant, as applicable. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Tenant with prompt notice of any Unavoidable Delays.
Unavoidable Delay When construction is impeded as a result of strikes, lockouts, acts of God or other factors beyond the control, and ability to remedy, of the Developer.
Excusable Delays Except with respect to defaults of subproviders, the Engineer shall not be in default by reason of any failure in performance of this contract in accordance with its terms (including any failure to progress in the performance of the work) if such failure arises out of causes beyond the control and without the default or negligence of the Engineer. Such causes may include, but are not restricted to, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe weather.
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).
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.”
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.
Extension of Time Periods The parties may extend any period of time provided in this Article 7 by mutual agreement.
Tenant Delay Except as otherwise provided in the Lease, Delivery of the Premises shall occur when Landlord’s Work has been Substantially Completed, except to the extent that completion of Landlord’s Work shall have been actually delayed by any one or more of the following causes (“Tenant Delay”):
(i) Tenant’s Representative was not available to give or receive any Communication or to take any other action required to be taken by Tenant hereunder within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed 2 business days) after written request from Landlord;
(ii) Tenant’s request for changes to the Building Shell, whether or not such changes are actually performed;
(iii) The construction of any changes to the Building Shell requested by Tenant and agreed upon by Landlord;
(iv) Tenant’s request for Change Requests (as defined in Section 4(a) below) whether or not any such Change Requests are actually performed;
(v) Construction of any Change Requests;
(vi) Tenant’s request for materials, finishes or installations requiring unusually long lead times (provided Landlord will request that the General Contractor inform Tenant of any long lead time items and identify substitutes for such items as soon as reasonably possible);
(vii) Tenant’s delay in reviewing, revising or approving plans and specifications beyond the periods set forth herein;
(viii) Tenant’s delay in providing any information that is reasonably required to come from Tenant which is critical to the normal progression of the Project within a reasonable period of time after request. Tenant shall provide such information as soon as reasonably possible, but in no event longer than one week after receipt of any request for such information from Landlord;
(ix) Tenant’s delay in making payments to Landlord for Excess TI Costs (as defined in Section 5(d) below) for more than 10 business days after such Excess TI Costs are required to be paid to Landlord; or
(x) Any other act or omission by Tenant or any Tenant Party (as defined in the Lease), or persons employed by any of such persons that continues for more than 1 business day after Landlord’s notice thereof to Tenant. If Delivery is delayed for any of the foregoing reasons, then Landlord shall cause the TI Architect to certify the date on which the Tenant Improvements would have been Substantially Completed but for such Tenant Delay and such certified date shall be deemed to be the Commencement Date for purposes of Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent, Operating Expenses, Excess TI Costs and TI Rent; however, Tenant will not have any obligation to pay any amounts to third parties pursuant to the Lease (and will not occupy the Premises) until the date upon which the Premises is Delivered to Tenant with the Landlord’s Work Substantially Complete. Upon request, Landlord shall advise Tenant of any materials, finishes or installations which are required as part of any Change Request that will result in unusually long lead times.
Extension of time for completion (i) Without prejudice to any other provision of this Agreement for and in respect of extension of time, the Contractor shall be entitled to extension of time in the Project Completion Schedule (the “Time Extension”) to the extent that completion of any Project Milestone is or will be delayed by any of the following, namely:
(a) delay in providing the Right of Way of Construction Zone, environmental clearances or approval of railway authorities, specified in Clause 3.1 (iv);
(b) Change of Scope (unless an adjustment to the Scheduled Completion Date has been agreed under Article 13);
(c) occurrence of a Force Majeure Event;
(d) any delay, impediment or prevention caused by or attributable to the Authority, the Authority's personnel or the Authority's other contractors on the Site; and
(e) any other cause or delay which entitles the Contractor to Time Extension in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
(ii) The Contractor shall, no later than 15 (fifteen) business days from the occurrence of an event or circumstance specified in Clause 10.5 (i), inform the Authority’s Engineer by notice in writing, with a copy to the Authority, stating in reasonable detail with supporting particulars, the event or circumstances giving rise to the claim for Time Extension in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Provided that the period of 15 (fifteen) business days shall be calculated from the date on which the Contractor became aware, or should have become aware, of the occurrence of such an event or circumstance. Provided further that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Time Extension shall be due and applicable only for the Works which are affected by the aforesaid events or circumstances and shall not in any manner affect the Project Completion Schedule for and in respect of the Works which are not affected hereunder.
(iii) On the failure of the Contractor to issue to the Authority’s Engineer a notice in accordance with the provisions of Clause 10.5 (ii) within the time specified therein, the Contractor shall not be entitled to any Time Extension and shall forfeit its right for any such claims in future. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of failure of the Contractor to issue notice as specified in this clause 10.5 (iii), the Authority shall be discharged from all liability in connection with the claim.
(iv) The Authority’s Engineer shall, on receipt of the claim in accordance with the provisions of Clause 10.5 (ii), examine the claim expeditiously within the time frame specified herein. In the event the Authority’s Engineer requires any clarifications to examine the claim, the Authority’s Engineer shall seek the same within 15 (fifteen) days from the date of receiving the claim. The Contractor shall, on receipt of the communication of the Authority’s Engineer requesting for clarification, furnish the same to the Authority’s Engineer within 10 (ten) days thereof. The Authority’s Engineer shall, within a period of 30 (thirty) days from the date of receipt of such clarifications, forward in writing to the Contractor its determination of Time Extension. Provided that when determining each extension of time under this Clause 10.5, the Authority’s Engineer shall review previous determinations and may increase, but shall not decrease, the total Time Extension.
(v) If the event or circumstance giving rise to the notice has a continuing effect:
(a) a fully detailed claim shall be considered as interim;
(b) the Contractor shall, no later than 10 (ten) days after the close of each month, send further interim claims specifying the accumulated delay, the extension of time claimed, and such further particulars as the Authority’s Engineer may reasonably require; and
(c) the Contractor shall send a final claim within 30 (thirty) days after the effect of the event or the circumstance ceases. Upon receipt of the claim hereunder, the Authority’s Engineer shall examine the same in accordance with the provisions of Clause 10.5 (iv) within a period of 30 (thirty) days of the receipt thereof
Extension of Time Limits The time limits referred to in this Article may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties in writing.
