Common use of Utility Providers Clause in Contracts

Utility Providers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall have the sole, exclusive and absolute right to determine, select and contract with utility company or companies that will provide electricity and other basic utility service to the Building, Property and Premises. If permitted by law, during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, to either contract for services from a different company or companies providing electricity or other basic utility service (each such company hereinafter an “Alternate Service Provider”) or continue to contract for service from the service provider(s) that is providing such utility service to the Building, Property or Premises at the Commencement Date (each the “Existing Service Provider”); provided, however, that if Landlord elects to contract with an Alternate Service Provider, Landlord will only do so if it reasonably believes that it will obtain the same or better rates from such Alternate Service Provider. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord, the Existing Service Provider and any Alternate Service Provider at all times and, as reasonably necessary and upon prior reasonable notice to Tenant, shall allow Landlord, the Existing Service Provider and any Alternate Service Provider access to the Building’s utility lines, plumbing, feeders, risers, wiring, and any other machinery or utility access ways within the Premises. Tenant agrees that, if requested by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s LEED certification process for the Building, it will allow Landlord access to its utility account information reasonably requested in connection with such LEED certification (including, without limitation, copies of invoices showing actual amounts of the utility used by Tenant and costs therefor) with respect to any utility provider providing service to the Premises.
