Repairs and Alterations There shall be no obligation on the part of Landlord or Sublessor to make any repairs, alterations or improvements in order to make the Premises ready for occupancy by Sublessee. Prior to making any repairs, alterations or improvements on the Premises, Sublessee shall obtain the prior written consent thereto of both Landlord and Sublessor. Any alterations, additions, or improvements made to the Premises, or Sublessee’s behalf, whether at the expense of Sublessee or Sublessor, including but not limited to, wall covering, carpeting, or other floor covering, paneling and built-in cabinets shall be deemed a part of the real estate and the property of Sublessor and shall be surrendered with the Premises unless Landlord or Sublessor, by notice given to Sublessee no later than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the Term, shall elect to have Sublessee remove such alterations, additions, or improvements. Sublessee shall thereupon accomplish such removal at its sole cost and repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. In the event that Sublessor consents in writing to any alterations, additions, or improvements to the Premises by Sublessee, they shall be made at the sole cost of Sublessee by licensed contractors or workmen approved by Sublessor. Sublessee shall secure all appropriate governmental approvals and permits and shall complete such alterations with due diligence. Any consent or approval given by Landlord or Sublessor hereunder shall not give rise to rights to third parties to file mechanic’s or materialman’s liens, nor waive Sublessor’s prohibition against such liens, nor in any manner abrogate that Section of this Sublease requiring Sublessee to keep Premises free of liens.
Tenant’s Alterations Tenant will not cut or drill into or secure any fixture, apparatus or equipment or make alterations, improvements or physical additions (collectively, “Alterations”) of any kind to any part of the Premises without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Alterations shall, at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s option, be done by Landlord at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord’s consent shall not be required for (i) the installation of any office equipment including internal partitions which do not require disturbance of any structural elements or systems within the Building or (ii) minor work, including decorations, which does not require disturbance of any structural elements or systems within the Building and which costs in the aggregate less than $5,000. If no approval is required or if Landlord approves Tenant’s Alterations and agrees to permit ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s contractors to do the work, Tenant, prior to the commencement of labor or supply of any materials, must furnish to Landlord (i) a duplicate or original policy or certificates of insurance evidencing (a) general public liability insurance for personal injury and property damage in the minimum amount of $3,000,000.00 combined single limit, (b) statutory ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ compensation insurance, and (c) employer’s liability insurance from each contractor to be employed (all such policies shall be non-cancelable without thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord and shall be in amounts and with companies satisfactory to Landlord); (ii) construction documents prepared and sealed by a registered Pennsylvania architect if such alteration causes the aggregate of all Alterations to be in excess of $10,000; (iii) all applicable building permits required by law; and (iv) an executed, effective Waiver of Mechanics Liens from such contractors and all sub-contractors in states allowing for such waivers or the cost of such alteration must be bonded by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. Any approval by Landlord permitting Tenant to do any or cause any work to be done in or about the Premises shall be and hereby is conditioned upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s work being performed by workmen and mechanics working in harmony and not interfering with labor employed by Landlord, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s mechanics or their contractors or by any other tenant or their contractors. If at any time any of the workmen or mechanics performing any of Tenant’s work shall be unable to work in harmony or shall interfere with any labor employed by Landlord, other tenants or their respective mechanics and contractors, then the permission granted by Landlord to Tenant permitting Tenant to do or cause any work to be done in or about the Premises, may be withdrawn by Landlord upon forty-eight (48) hours written notice to Tenant. All Alterations (whether temporary or permanent in character) made in or upon the Premises, either by Landlord or Tenant, shall be Landlord’s property upon installation and shall remain on the Premises without compensation to Tenant unless Landlord provides written notice to Tenant to remove same at the expiration of the Lease, in which event Tenant shall promptly remove such Alterations and restore the Premises to good order and condition. At Lease termination, all furniture, movable trade fixtures and equipment (including telephone, security and communication equipment system wiring and cabling) shall, at Landlord’s option, be removed by Tenant and shall be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner so as not to damage the Premises or Building and in such manner so as not to disturb other tenants in the Building. All such installations, removals and restoration shall be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner so as not to damage the Premises or Building and in such manner so as not to disturb other tenants in the Building. If Tenant fails to remove any items required to be removed pursuant to this Article, Landlord may do so and the reasonable costs and expenses thereof shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) business days of Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor from Landlord.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS, OR ALTERATIONS The Tenant shall, at their own expense and at all times, maintain premises in a clean and sanitary manner, and shall surrender the same at termination hereof, in as good condition as received, normal wear and tear excepted. The Tenant may not make any alterations to the leased premises without the consent in writing of the Landlord. The Landlord shall be responsible for repairs to the interior and exterior of the building. If the Premises includes a washer, dryer, freezer, dehumidifier unit and/or air conditioning unit, the Landlord makes no warranty as to the repair or replacement of units if one or all shall fail to operate. The Landlord will place fresh batteries in all battery-operated smoke detectors when the Tenant moves into the premises. After the initial placement of the fresh batteries it is the responsibility of the Tenant to replace batteries when needed. A monthly "cursory" inspection may be required for all fire extinguishers to make sure they are fully charged.
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES a. In the event the Premises are damaged by fire or other perils or casualty covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, repair or rebuild the same within a reasonable time after the event causing such damage. This Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of the rent from the date of damage and while such repairs are being made, such proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which the damage and making of such repairs shall reasonably interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises as determined by Landlord. If the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant or its employees, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, there shall be no reduction of rent. Landlord may authorize or direct construction of an alternative structure or may elect to retain any insurance proceeds received by it if Landlord deems reconstruction or construction of an alternative structure to be impractical or unreasonable in its sole discretion.
b. In the event the Premises are damaged to any extent as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord shall in its sole discretion have the option to: (1.) to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises within a reasonable time of the event causing the damage, in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but the rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided above in 11a. during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration, or (2.) to give notice to Tenant at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage occurs, terminating this Lease as of the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice. In the event of giving to Tenant such notice of termination, this Lease shall terminate and all interests of Tenant in the Premises shall cease on the date so specified in such notice and Tenant shall pay the rent, as proportionately reduced, based upon the extent, if any, to which such damage interfered with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises, up to the date of such termination.
c. With regard to Landlord’s duty or option to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises within a reasonable time of the event causing the damage as provided in 11a. and b. above, Landlord shall act promptly and with due diligence, but Landlord shall not be responsible for delays caused by factors beyond Landlord’s control, including but not limited to delays because of strikes, work slowdowns or stoppages, accidents, acts of God, failure of any governmental or other authority to act in a timely manner, or delays caused by contractors. If such delays occur, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be responsible for damages, nor shall Landlord be deemed to be in default under this Lease.
d. Landlord shall not be required to repair any damage by fire or other casualty, or to make any repair or replacements of any leasehold improvements, fixtures, or other personal property of Tenant.
Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other casualty. If the Premises or any Common Areas serving or providing access to the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 11, restore the Base Building and such Common Areas. Such restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Base Building and the Common Areas prior to the casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Building or Project or any other modifications to the Common Areas deemed desirable by Landlord, which are consistent with the character of the Project, provided that access to the Premises and any common restrooms serving the Premises shall not be materially impaired. Upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, upon notice (the “Landlord Repair Notice”) to Tenant from Landlord, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required under Section 10.3 of this Lease, and Landlord shall repair any injury or damage to the Tenant Improvements and the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Tenant Improvements and Original Improvements to their original condition; provided that if the cost of such repair by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant’s insurance carrier, as assigned by Tenant, the cost of such repairs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to Landlord’s commencement of repair of the damage. In the event that Landlord does not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice within sixty (60) days following the date the casualty becomes known to Landlord, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair any injury or damage to the Tenant Improvements and the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Tenant Improvements and Original Improvements to their original condition. Whether or not Landlord delivers a Landlord Repair Notice, prior to the commencement of construction, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, for Landlord’s review and approval, all plans, specifications and working drawings relating thereto, and Landlord shall select the contractors to perform such improvement work. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant’s business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if such fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant’s occupancy, and the Premises are not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof, then during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy, the Rent shall be abated in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which is unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice, Tenant’s right to rent abatement pursuant to the preceding sentence shall terminate as of the date which is reasonably determined by Landlord to be the date Tenant should have completed repairs to the Premises assuming Tenant used reasonable due diligence in connection therewith.
