Usable Area Versus Rentable Area Sample Clauses

Usable Area Versus Rentable Area. One of the most important concepts for the leasing attorney to master is the distinction between usable area and rentable area (also called leasable area). Usable area is the actual floor area of the space encompassed within the premises. Renta- ble area, or leasable area, is the usable area plus that area’s allocable share of the common areas of the building. By way of example, Building A may contain 100,000 square feet of floor area, of which 85,000 square feet is usable area (i.e., space available for occupancy by tenants) and the remaining 15,000 square feet is common area (i.e., lobbies, elevators, stairways, loading docks, utility rooms, closets, janitors’ closets, and the like). The landlord wants to collect rent on the entire 100,000 square feet, so it allocates the common area to the usable area. The increase to the usable area effected by this allocation is sometimes referred to as the “add-on factor” and the size of the add-on factor is often referred to as the “efficiency” of a building. In our hypothetical, the 15,000 square feet of common area is spread ratably over the 85,000 square feet of usable area so that each usable square foot of floor area becomes 1.18 square feet of rentable floor area (i.e., 100,000/85,000). Rent is calculated on rentable floor area, not usable area.

  • Rentable Area 6.1. The term “Rentable Area” shall reflect such areas as reasonably calculated by Landlord’s architect, as the same may be reasonably adjusted from time to time by Landlord in consultation with Landlord’s architect to reflect changes to the Premises, the Building or the Project, as applicable.

  • Square Footage Buyer acknowledges that the square footage of the Property has not been measured by Seller, Seller’s broker or its auctioneer (including the square footage of the lot and home) and the square footage quoted on any marketing tools such as advertisements, brochures, MLS data, the auction website and any other information provided is based on information supplied to Seller and is deemed approximate and not guaranteed. Buyer further acknowledges that Buyer has not relied upon any such marketing tool and that such tools are not representations and/or warranties of Seller or its agent.

  • 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.

  • 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.
