AMI and Technological Improvements and Interfaces Clause Samples

AMI and Technological Improvements and Interfaces. The parties acknowledge that CL&P is investigating an AMR network and AMI technology through which consumer electricity consumption and costs may be metered, monitored and/or reduced. CL&P may elect to refresh its AMR network to a full two-way network that would be capable of load control for multiple devices at Customers’ premises. In this scenario, the network would be capable of all communications for that control. In the event that CL&P opts to implement an AMI, it is anticipated that the CL&P AMI network would be capable of all communication necessary to control customer load. In the event that, during the Term, CL&P opts to pursue implementation of these technologies or any other technologies that may become available, AER, at CL&P’s request, agrees to work cooperatively with CL&P to integrate Control Devices with CL&P technologies and develop a module and/or upgrade that enables communications between the AER Control Devices and such technologies. AER shall provide a written estimate as to the cost and expense for upgrading the Control Devices to be compatible with the CL&P technologies, including the AMR and AMI technologies referenced herein provided however that CL&P may in its discretion, elect to have Comverge install any equipment upgrades during Comverge’s scheduled inspections, in which case, any reasonable additional charges, ***. AER will also use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize costs to upgrade or modify its DLCS equipment to integrate such equipment with CL&P technologies. Nothing contained herein shall be considered to obligate CL&P to make any network changes whatsoever nor shall obligate CL&P to integrate its network and AER Control Devices.

Executive shall, upon request of the Company, but at no expense to Executive, at any time during or after his employment with the Company, sign all instruments and documents reasonably requested by the Company and otherwise cooperate with the Company to protect its right to such ideas, discoveries, inventions, or improvements including applying for, obtaining, and enforcing patents and copyrights thereon in such countries as Company shall determine.

  • Improvements and Inventions Any and all improvements or inventions that Employee may make or participate in during the Employment Term, unless wholly unrelated to the business of Company and its affiliates and not produced within the scope of Employee’s employment hereunder, shall be the sole and exclusive property of Company. Employee shall, whenever requested by Company, execute and deliver any and all documents that Company deems appropriate in order to apply for and obtain patents or copyrights in improvements or inventions or in order to assign and/or convey to Company the sole and exclusive right, title and interest in and to such improvements, inventions, patents, copyrights or applications.

  • Initial Improvements (a) The final space plan (the “Space Plan”) for the Premises, mutually approved by the Parties is attached as Appendix 1. (b) Landlord shall cause the Base Building Improvements (the “Base Building Improvements”) described on Appendix 2 to be completed in accordance with the plans and specifications (the “Building Plans”) prepared by Landlord, the Building Standards and Specifications (the “Building Standards”) attached as Appendix 3 and Laws. The Base Building Improvements shall be made, and the Building Plans shall be prepared, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, except that any changes, alterations, modifications or upgrades to: (i) the Base Building Improvements or the Building Plans requested by Tenant and approved by Landlord; or (ii) the Tenant Improvements or the Tenant Improvement Plans (both defined below) that result in changes, alterations, modifications or upgrades to the Base Building Improvements or the Building Plans, shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. (c) Landlord shall also cause the Tenant Improvements (the “Tenant Improvements”) described on Appendix 2 to be completed in accordance with the Space Plan, the plans and specifications (including the tenant finishes) (the “Tenant Improvement Plans”) approved by the Parties, the Building Standards and Laws. Subject to the last sentence of this subparagraph (c), the Tenant Improvements shall be made, and the Tenant Improvement Plans shall be prepared, at Landlord’s cost and expense, except to the extent that, at Tenant’s direction, the Tenant Improvements vary from the Space Plan or the Building Standards. To the extent that, at Tenant’s direction, the Tenant Improvements vary from the Space Plan or the Building Standards, such variance shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs incurred or payable by Landlord in making the Balconies accessible and usable by Tenant within ten (10) business days after the receipt of an invoice therefor, accompanied by such detail as may reasonably be requested by Tenant, which invoice may be delivered prior to the commencement of construction. (The Base Building Improvements and the Tenant Improvements are referred to in this Exhibit collectively as the “Initial Improvements.”) The Initial Improvements shall be completed free of any mechanics’ liens, except to the extent of any dispute in connection therewith, in which case Landlord shall adequately protect the Property from the foreclosure of any such lien. (d) Landlord shall cause the Tenant Improvement Plans to be prepared by a registered professional architect and mechanical and electrical engineer(s). Landlord shall furnish the initial draft of the Tenant Improvement Plans to Tenant for Tenant’s review and approval. Tenant shall within three (3) business days after receipt either provide comments to such Tenant Improvement Plans or approve the same. Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such Tenant Improvement Plans if Tenant does not timely provide comments on such Tenant Improvement Plans. If Tenant provides Landlord with comments to the initial draft of the Tenant Improvement Plans, Landlord shall provide revised Tenant Improvement Plans to Tenant incorporating Tenant’s comments within three (3) business days after receipt of Tenant’s comments. Tenant shall within three (3) business days after receipt then either provide comments to such revised Tenant Improvement Plans or approve such Tenant Improvement Plans. Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such revised Tenant Improvement Plans if Tenant does not timely provide comments on such Tenant Improvement Plans. The process described above shall be repeated, if necessary, until the Tenant Improvement Plans have finally been approved by Tenant. (e) Landlord shall provide project management services in connection with the construction of the Initial Improvements and the Change Orders (defined below). Such project management services shall be performed without cost to Tenant, except for Change Orders, which shall be performed for a fee of five percent (5%) of all costs related to the construction of the Change Orders. Tenant may, at Tenant’s discretion and sole cost and expense, engage a representative to oversee construction activities on Tenant’s behalf. Said representative shall coordinate its efforts with Landlord’s project manager and/or contractor, shall have full access to all information and documentation with respect to the Tenant Improvements and may be engaged throughout the design and construction process of the Tenant Improvements.
