Delayed Possession Clause Samples

The Delayed Possession clause defines the rights and obligations of the parties when the transfer of possession of a property or asset is postponed beyond the originally agreed date. Typically, this clause outlines the circumstances under which delays are permitted, such as construction setbacks or regulatory approvals, and may specify remedies like compensation or extensions of time. Its core function is to manage expectations and responsibilities in the event of a delay, thereby reducing disputes and providing a clear process for handling possession issues.

Delayed Possession. If the landlord is unable to deliver possession of the premises at the commencement date of this Agreement, the student shall not be liable for any rent and may elect to terminate this Agreement at any time until possession is delivered. The landlord shall be liable for any damage caused thereby through the third day from the commencement hereof, if possession is not delivered, or until the day the student terminates, whichever is earlier. This provision survives termination until damages are collected.
Delayed Possession. Landlord shall act diligently to make the Premises available to Tenant; provided, however, neither Landlord nor any agent or employee of Landlord shall be liable for any damage or loss due to Landlord's inability or failure to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant as provided in this Lease. If possession is delayed, the Commencement Date set forth in Section 1 shall also be delayed. In addition, the Termination Date set forth in Section 1 shall be modified so that the length of the Lease term remains the same. If Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant within sixty (60) days after the Commencement Date specified in Section 1, Tenant may elect to cancel this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after such time period ends. If Tenant gives such notice of cancellation, the Lease shall be cancelled, all prepaid rent and security deposits shall be refunded to Tenant, and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further obligations to the other. The first “lease year” shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall end on the date which is twelve (12) months from the end of the month in which the Commencement Date occurs. Each successive lease year during the initial term and any extension terms shall be twelve (12) months, commencing on the first day following the end of the preceding Lease Year. To the extent that the tenant improvements are not completed in time for the Tenant to occupy or take possession of the Premises on the Commencement Date due to the failure of Tenant to fulfill any of its obligations under this Lease, the Lease shall nevertheless commence on the Commencement Date set forth in Section 1.
Delayed Possession. If the Landlord is unable to deliver possession of all or any portion of the Leased Premises by the Commencement Date, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and the Tenant shall take possession of the Leased Premises on the date when the Landlord delivers possession of all of the Leased Premises, which date shall be conclusively established by notice in writing from the Landlord to the Tenant at least ten days before such date. The Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant for any loss, damage or inconvenience resulting from any delay in delivering possession of the Leased Premises but, unless the delay is caused by or attributable to the Tenant, its servants, agents or independent contractors, no Rent shall be payable by the Tenant for the period prior to the date on which the Landlord can deliver possession of all of the Leased Premises, unless the Tenant elects to take possession of a portion of the Leased Premises, in which case Rent shall be payable in respect thereof from the date such possession is so taken. Despite anything contained to the contrary in this Section 3.03, if the Landlord is of the opinion that it is unable to deliver possession of all or any part of the Leased Premises by the expiration of six (6) months from the Commencement Date, the Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to the Tenant, whereupon neither party shall have any liability to the other.
Delayed Possession. If Landlord is delayed in delivering possession of all or any portion of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Commencement Date, then Tenant shall take possession of the Premises on the date (not later than one year after the Commencement Date) when Landlord delivers possession of all of the Premises. This Lease shall not be void or voidable nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting from any delay in delivering possession of the Premises to Tenant nor shall any delay be construed in any way to affect the Expiration Date, but, unless such delay is principally caused by or attributable to Tenant, its servants, agents or independent contractors, no Rent shall be payable by Tenant for the period prior to the date on which Landlord can so deliver possession of all of the Premises, unless Tenant elects to take possession of a portion of the Premises whereupon Rent shall be payable in respect of that portion from the date such possession is so taken.
Delayed Possession. If the Landlord is delayed in delivering possession of all or any portion of the Premises to the Tenant on or before the earlier of: (i) the commencement of the Fixturing Period, if applicable; and (ii) the Commencement Date, then unless such delay is principally caused by or attributable to the Tenant, its servants, agents or independent contractors the Commencement Date or the date on which the Premises are to be made available to the Tenant, the obligation of the Tenant to pay Base Rent and Occupancy Costs, and the Expiry Date shall be postponed for a period equal to the duration of the delay. This Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall the Landlord be liable to the Tenant for any loss or damage resulting from any delay in delivering possession of the Premises to the Tenant, and the deferment of the obligation of the Tenant to pay Base Rent and Occupancy Costs shall be accepted by the Tenant as full compensation for any such delay. If any delay in the completion of the Landlord’s Work is attributable to the Tenant, its servants, agents or independent contractors, the obligation of the Tenant to pay Base Rent and Occupancy Costs shall not be deferred.
Delayed Possession. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on the Commencement Date. Except as otherwise provided in Schedule E, any delay in having the Premises available for occupancy by the Target Commencement Date or the Outside Commencement Date shall not affect the validity of this Lease or Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, nor shall Landlord be subject to any liability for that delay. Landlord and Tenant agree to confirm the actual Commencement Date and Expiration Date, in writing, prior to Tenant’s occupancy.
Delayed Possession. Tenant may cancel this Lease if Landlord cannot deliver actual possession of the substantially complete Premises by one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Target Date. To cancel, Tenant must give notice to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the expiration of such one hundred and eighty day period and before Landlord gives notice to Tenant that the Premises are substantially complete. The one hundred and eighty (180) day period above shall be extended in the time equal to any period of delay caused by Tenant. Within thirty (30) days after cancellation, Landlord shall return to Tenant prepaid consideration including Rent and deposits, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Lease.
Delayed Possession. Tenant may cancel this Lease if Landlord cannot deliver actual possession of the substantially complete Premises by sixty (60) days after the Target Date. To cancel Tenant must give notice to Landlord within ninety (90) days after the Target Date and before Landlord gives notice to Tenant that the Premises are substantially complete. The sixty (60) day and ninety (90) day periods above shall be extended by the time equal to any period of delay caused by the Tenant. Within thirty (30) days after cancellation Landlord shall return to Tenant prepaid consideration, if any, including Rent and deposits.
Delayed Possession. If Lessor shall fail to deliver to Lessee actual possession of the Premises by June 15, 1997 rent shall ▇▇▇▇▇ until possession is given, but Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for such failure, and the Commencement Date shall become the date on which possession is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the Premises are not available for occupancy by Lessee on August 15, 1997, this Lease shall be voidable by either party, and if voided, all payments made to Lessor by Lessee hereunder, if any, shall be immediately refunded to Lessee by Lessor; provided, however, that such date shall be extended to the extent that construction is delayed by any of the reasons set forth in Section 8 or other conditions beyond Lessor's control or by amendments to the working drawings for the improvements to the Premises requested by Lessee. The Premises shall be "available for occupancy" when a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued for the Premises.
Delayed Possession. If due to or as a result of a Tenant Delay substantial completion of Lessor's Work is delayed, then the Commencement Date for the purpose of the date on which payment of rent commences shall be deemed to be the date that is four (4) weeks after the date upon which Substantial Completion of Lessor's Work would have occurred but for the Tenant Delay, and the obligations of Lessee under this Lease shall commence on such deemed Commencement Date. If Lessor fails to deliver to Lessee actual possession of the Premises by the date that is four (4) weeks after Substantial Completion of Lessor's Work, as extended for Tenant Delays, then rent shall abat▇ ▇▇▇il possession is given, but Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for such failure, and the Commencement Date shall become the date on which possession is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the Project Improvements and Premises Improvements are not substantially completed by Lessor on the date that is seventeen (17) weeks plus ninety (90) days after approval of the Premises Plans, as extended for Tenant Delays, then this Lease shall be voidable by Lessee, and if voided, all payments made to Lessor by Lessee hereunder, if any, shall be immediately refunded to Lessee by Lessor, Lessor shall return the Security Deposit (and the Original Letter of Credit) and notwithstanding the limitation of liability provisions of the first sentence of Section 16.2, Lessor shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessee against all costs, damages and expenses incurred by Lessee because of Lessor's failure to deliver the Project Improvements and Premises Improvements as and when required by the Lease.
