Article 2 Premises and Term
leases the Premises from Landlord, subject to and with the benefit of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease, excluding exterior faces of exterior walls, the common lobbies, hallways, stairways, stairwells, elevator shafts and other common areas, and the escalators, elevators, pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant fixtures and other common facilities serving the common areas, the Premises and the premises of other tenants in the Building.
Tenant shall have, as appurtenant to the Premises, rights to use, in common with others, subject to the Rules and Regulations (as defined in Subsection 6.1.9) : (a) the common lobbies, hallways and stairways of the Building, (b) the common elevators, loading docks, pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant fixtures and other common facilities serving the Premises, (c) common walkways and driveways (if any) necessary for access to the Building, (d) if the Premises include less than all of the rentable area of any floor of the Building, the common toilets and other common facilities located on such floor, and (e) the Laboratory Systems. “Laboratory Systems” shall mean all base Building systems, fixtures and equipment provided by Landlord from time to time for the use in common by tenants and occupants of the Building which support laboratory uses in the Building. As of the Commencement Date, the Laboratory Systems shall include the following: pH neutralization systems, chemical storage room and a waste accumulation room. Landlord shall not (i) reduce the number of parking spaces available for use of tenants of the Building except to the extent required by law or the MMP, as defined in Subsection 6.1.2, (ii) alter the common areas and the common facilities in such a manner as would materially adversely affect Tenant’s access to the Premises, (iii) alter the common facilities and common areas, including but not limited to the Laboratory Systems, which would cause Tenant to incur expenses (other than de minimis amounts) or which would, to more than a de minimis extent, adversely alter, reduce or remove any component of the common facilities including, but not limited to, the Laboratory Systems, which exist as of the Commencement Date or which is thereafter included within the Laboratory Systems, or (iv) enter into a declaration of covenants or reciprocal easement agreement or otherwise restrict or bind the Property or Building which would cause Tenant to incur additional expenses or which would reduce
Tenant’s rights or increase Tenant’s obligations under this Lease other to a de minimis degree.
any time, but only by notice to Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to extend the term of this Lease for two (2) additional periods (the “Extended Term(s)”) of five (5) years each, commencing on the day succeeding the expiration of the Original Term or the preceding Extended Term, as the case may be, and ending on the day immediately preceding the fifth (5th) anniversary of the commencement of such Extended Term. All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Lease applicable immediately prior to the expiration of the then current term (i.e. Original Term or Extended Term, as applicable) shall apply to each Extended Term except that (i) the Annual Fixed Rent for each Extended Term shall be the Market Rate (as hereinafter defined) for the Premises determined as of the date of the Election Notice, as designated by
Landlord by notice to Tenant (“Landlord’s Notice”), but subject to ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s right to dispute as hereinafter provided; and (ii) Tenant shall have no further right to extend the term of this Lease beyond the Extended Terms hereinabove provided. If Tenant shall elect to exercise any of the aforesaid options, it shall do so by giving Landlord notice (an “Election Notice”) of its election not later than twenty-four (24) months, nor sooner than twelve (12) months, prior to the expiration of the then current term of this Lease (Original Term or Extended Term, as applicable). If Tenant fails to give any such Election Notice to Landlord or the Conditions are neither satisfied nor waived by Landlord, the term of this Lease shall automatically terminate no later than the end of the term then in effect, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the term of this Lease, it being agreed that time is of the essence with respect to the giving of any such Election Notice. If Tenant shall extend the term hereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.4, such extension shall (subject to satisfaction of the Conditions, unless waived by Landlord) be automatically effected without the execution of any additional documents, but
Tenant shall, at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s request, execute an agreement confirming the Annual Fixed Rent for the applicable Extended Term. The “Conditions” are that, as of the date of the applicable Election Notice there shall exist no Default of Tenant and Tenant, its assignees and/or subtenants shall actually occupy, in the aggregate, at least eighty percent (80%) of the entire Premises.
“Market Rate” shall mean the then fair market annual rent (determined as set forth below), at the time of the Election Notice, for premises in the greater Somerville market (the “Market”) comparable to the Premises in terms of location within a building, finish, age, building quality and amenities, under terms and conditions substantially the same as those of this Lease, in “as-is” condition taking into account the condition of the Premises and the improvements and finishes therein, for those portions of the Premises which are built-out for research and development laboratory uses, to the extent such improvements and finishes would be generally provided in premises devoted to research and development laboratory uses (but not taking into consideration any improvements and finishes in the Premises that are customized or were installed specifically for the use of Ultragenyx Pharmaceuticals Inc.) for comparable periods of time, and taking into account all relevant factors such as free rent periods, tenant improvement allowances then being offered in the Market and the effect of same on base rent (by means of example only, if the Market Rate for a five (5) year renewal term is determined to be
$100.00 per rentable square foot per annum, but it is determined that such Market Rate contemplates a tenant improvement allowance in the amount of $25.00 per rentable square foot and Tenant elects not to receive a tenant improvement allowance in connection with the Extended Term, the Market Rate shall be reduced by $6.08 per rentable square foot per annum assuming an eight percent (8%) amortization of the tenant improvement allowance Tenant elects not to receive), the manner, if any, in which Landlord is reimbursed for taxes and operating expenses, and brokerage commissions; but which Market Rate shall be determined without
regard to the Annual Fixed Rent in effect immediately prior to the commencement of the Extended Term, the parties acknowledging that the Annual Fixed Rent for the Original Term was determined based, in part, on the cost of improvements to the Premises. At any time during the last two (2) years of any applicable term, within thirty (30) days following a request of ▇▇▇▇▇▇,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s designation of the Annual Fixed Rent for the coming potential Extended Term. If Tenant disagrees with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s designation of the Market Rate, then Tenant shall give notice thereof to Landlord within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s Notice (failure to provide such notice of disagreement within such 20-day period constituting acceptance by Tenant of Market Rate as set forth in Landlord’s Notice); and if the parties cannot agree upon the Market Rate by the date that is thirty (30) days following Landlord’s Notice, then the Market Rate shall be submitted to appraisal as follows: Within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, Landlord and Tenant shall each give notice to the other specifying the name and address of the appraiser each has chosen. The two appraisers so chosen shall meet within ten (10) days after the second appraiser is appointed and if, within twenty (20) days after the second appraiser is appointed, the two appraisers shall not agree upon a determination of the Market Rate in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 2.4 they shall together appoint a third appraiser. If only one appraiser shall be chosen whose name and address shall have been given to the other party within such fifteen (15) day period and who shall have the qualifications hereinafter set forth, that sole appraiser shall render the decision which would otherwise have been made as hereinabove provided. All appraisers referenced in this Section 2.4 shall be informed that they must act in a commercially reasonable manner and in good faith.
If said two appraisers cannot agree upon the appointment of a third appraiser within ten
(10) days after the expiration of such twenty (20) day period, then either party, on behalf of both and on notice to the other, may request such appointment by the then President of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board (or any similar or successor organization) for the greater Somerville, Massachusetts area in accordance with its then prevailing rules. If said President shall fail to appoint said third appraiser within ten (10) days after such request is made, then either party, on behalf of both and on notice to the other, may request such appointment by the American Arbitration Association (or any successor organization) in accordance with its then prevailing rules. In the event that all three appraisers cannot agree upon such Market Rate within ten (10) days after the third appraiser shall have been selected, then each appraiser shall submit his or her designation of such Market Rate to the other two appraisers in writing; and Market Rate shall be determined by calculating the average of the two numerically closest (or, if the values are equidistant, all three) values so determined.
Each of the appraisers selected as herein provided shall have at least ten (10) years’ experience as a commercial real estate broker in the greater Somerville area dealing with properties of the same type and quality as the Building. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser it has selected and the fees of its own counsel. Each party shall pay one half (1/2) of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser (or the sole appraiser, if applicable) and all other expenses of the appraisal. The decision and award of the appraiser(s) shall be in writing and shall be final and conclusive on all parties, and counterpart copies thereof shall be delivered to both Landlord and Tenant. Judgment upon the award of the appraiser(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
The appraiser(s) shall determine the Market Rate of the Premises for the applicable Extended Term and render a decision and award as to their determination to both Landlord and Tenant (a) within twenty (20) days after the appointment of the second appraiser, (b) within twenty (20) days after the appointment of the third appraiser or (c) within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the sole appraiser, as the case may be. In rendering such decision and award, the appraiser(s) shall assume (i) that neither Landlord nor the prospective tenant is under a compulsion to rent, and that Landlord and Tenant are typically motivated, well-informed and well-advised, and each is acting in what it considers its own best interest, (ii) the Premises are fit for immediate occupancy and use “as is” (taking into account the factors set forth above in this Section 2.4 for the determination of Market Rate), (iii) that in the event the Premises have been damaged by fire or other casualty prior to the commencement of the applicable Extended Term, they have been fully restored. The appraisers shall also take into consideration the rents contained in leases for comparable space in the Building, or in comparable buildings in the greater Somerville area, for comparable periods of time.
If the dispute between the parties as to the Market Rate has not been resolved before the commencement of Tenant’s obligation to pay the Annual Fixed Rent based upon determination of such Market Rate, then Tenant shall pay the Annual Fixed Rent under the Lease based upon the Market Rate designated by Landlord in Landlord’s Notice until either the agreement of the parties as to the Market Rate, or the decision of the appraiser(s), as the case may be, at which time Tenant shall pay any underpayment of the Annual Fixed Rent to Landlord, or Landlord shall refund any overpayment of the Annual Fixed Rent to Tenant.
Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the right to an evidentiary hearing before the appraiser(s) and agree that the appraisal shall not be an arbitration nor be subject to state or federal law relating to arbitrations.
If the rentable area of the Premises, as so measured, is more than one hundred one percent (101%) or less than ninety-nine percent (99%) of the Premises Rentable Area as set forth in Section 1.1: (i) the definition of Premises Rentable Area set forth in Section 1.1 shall be deemed amended in accordance with such measurement; (ii) Annual Fixed Rent shall, retroactively to the Commencement Date, be recomputed by multiplying the Annual Fixed Rent as set forth in Section 1.1 by a fraction (the “Fraction”), the numerator of which shall be the rentable area as so measured and the denominator of which shall be the Premises Rentable Area set forth in Section 1.1; (iii) Tenant’s Percentage shall, retroactively to the Commencement Date, be recomputed to be the percentage determined by multiplying Tenant’s Percentage as set forth in Section 1.1 by the Fraction, and (iv) if applicable, the Allowance shall, retroactively to the Commencement Date, be adjusted by multiplying the rentable area as so measured by the Allowance per rentable square foot as set forth in Article 3 below.
Any payment due to Landlord as the result of such adjustment shall be paid within thirty
(30) days after notice to Tenant of such computation. Any payment due to Tenant as a result of such adjustment shall be credited against installments of Annual Fixed Rent thereafter becoming due.
In the event of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.5, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute a written statement setting forth the recomputed Premise Rentable Area, Annual Fixed Rent, Tenant’s Percentage and (if applicable) the Allowance, but the failure by either party to execute such a statement shall have no effect on the validity of such recomputation.
If (i) neither Landlord nor Tenant requests any adjustment as herein provided within the time limit provided, or (ii) such adjustment is requested, but the rentable area is within the two (2%) percent range set forth above, Annual Fixed Rent, Tenant’s Percentage, and Premises Rentable Area shall remain as set forth in Section 1.1, and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any right to any adjustment and shall not be subject to remeasurement.
Article 3 Commencement and Condition
Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work Substantially Complete, as such terms are hereinafter defined. Landlord shall use diligent efforts to cause the Commencement Date to occur prior to the Delivery Date; provided, however, that the Commencement Date shall be no earlier than July 1, 2023. If the Commencement Date has not occurred by the Delivery Date for reasons other than Force Majeure or Tenant Delay (as such terms are hereinafter defined), then for each of the first thirty (30) days of any such failure Tenant shall be entitled to a one (1) day delay in the Rent Commencement Date and for each subsequent day of any such failure Tenant shall be entitled to a two (2) day delay of the Rent Commencement Date; and if Landlord shall fail to deliver the Premises to Tenant by February 28, 2024 (i.e., 180 days after the Delivery Date) for reasons other than Force Majeure or Tenant Delay then, in addition to the delays in the Rent Commencement Date described above, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Landlord not later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period; and this Lease shall cease and come to an end without further liability or obligation on the part of either party ten (10) days after the giving of such notice, it being agreed that time is of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice.
In addition, if Landlord shall fail to deliver the Premises to Tenant by the Delivery Date with Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work Substantially Complete (“Landlord’s Late Delivery”) for reasons other than Force Majeure or Tenant Delay, Landlord shall (a) reimburse Tenant for all amounts paid by Tenant as holdover rent over and above the sum of base or fixed rent plus additional rent that was due immediately prior to any such holdover over (“Hold Over Rent”) under ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s existing lease (the “Existing Lease”) at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; such payments shall be made to Tenant within thirty (30) days following request for reimbursement therefore, given together with reasonable supporting documentation, and (b)
Landlord shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Tenant and the Tenant Parties from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, expense and liability (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with or arising from such holdover under the Existing Lease and save and hold other tenants, agents, employees, patients, visitors, invitees or licensees harmless against any damages, liability, claims, causes of action or judgments arising therefrom; provided, however, that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s reimbursement obligations under this clause (b) shall not exceed $1,800,000.00. Landlord hereby acknowledges that the Hold Over Rent due under the Existing Lease is due on a monthly basis and, accordingly, if there is a Landlord’s Late Delivery of the Premises the Hold Over Rent will not be prorated for a partial month, but shall be due for one or more months in their entirety. Upon receipt of notice from Landlord notifying Tenant of Landlord’s Late Delivery, Tenant shall use reasonable efforts, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to mitigate its damages under its Existing Lease including, without limitation, using commercially reasonable efforts to extend the term of the Existing Lease in order to avoid being liable for Hold Over Rent and/or requesting that the Hold Over Rent due under the Existing Lease be prorated on a daily basis, and Landlord shall pay (i) the
out-of-pocket cost of such efforts made by Tenant and (ii) all payments, rent and additional rent for and during such extension term of the Existing Lease as set forth in this Section 3.1. Tenant hereby represents that current termination date of the Existing Lease is December 31, 2023 and, unless the Commencement Date occurs on or before December 31, 2023, Tenant shall not agree to an earlier expiration or termination of the term of the Existing Lease. Tenant’s right to a postponement of the Rent Commencement Date, reimbursement of its holdover penalties and
Tenant’s termination right pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for Landlord’s failure to Substantially Complete Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work and deliver the Premises to Tenant as required herein.
Landlord’s Work and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work) (“Landlord’s Contractor”). Landlord shall cause ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Contractor to construct Landlord’s Work and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work in a good and
workmanlike manner, in accordance with applicable laws and building codes, in compliance with applicable permits for Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work, and in accordance with Landlord’s Plans and Tenant’s Plans. Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to accept the Premises with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work Substantially Complete. Tenant acknowledges that except as set forth in this Section 3.2, it is not relying on any representations of Landlord or Landlord’s agents or employees as to the current condition or
the condition of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work, and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto except as may be expressly set forth in this Lease.
The materials and equipment furnished in the performance of Landlord’s Work and
Tenant’s Work will be of good quality (consistent with first-class office and laboratory spaces, as the case may be), new and of recent manufacture and Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work, all components thereof and the Building Systems shall be in good working order and condition as of the completion of Landlord’s Work. On the Commencement Date the Building including, but not limited to, the roof and foundation will be in good condition and leak-free. If it is determined that the roof or foundation is not in such condition as of the Commencement Date, Landlord shall cause the same to be put in such condition promptly after having notice thereof, and all costs and expenses of such corrective work shall be excluded from Operating Costs.

Landlord hereby approves the Laboratory Basis of Design (the “BOD,” and, together with the Work Matrix, hereinafter referred to as the “Schematic Plans”). Both Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the entire Laboratory Basis of Design is not attached to this Lease due to its large size, but the 146 page document was provided to Landlord by Tenant prior to the Date of this Lease and it is expressly incorporated herein as Exhibit A-5. In the event of a conflict between the Work Matrix and the BOD as to whether any of the initial improvements to the Premises belong in the Landlord, Tenant, or Work by Tenant column, the Work Matrix shall control; in the event of a conflict between the Work Matrix and the BOD as to the specificity of any item of the initial improvements to the Premises, the BOD shall control; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in the Work Matrix or the BOD to the contrary, Landlord shall provide three (3) fume hoods as part of Tenant’s Work. Not later than October 7, 2022 (the “Plan Submission Date”), Tenant shall submit to Landlord for Landlord’s approval as set forth herein a full set of construction drawings and specifications (“Tenant’s Plans”) for the initial improvements to the Premises desired by Tenant (collectively with the Interim Plans and the Schematic Plans, the “TI Plans”), which Tenant’s Plans shall, within five (5) days following approval thereof by Landlord, be submitted by Landlord or its contractor to the City of Somerville together with an application for a building permit for ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work. The TI Plans shall be prepared by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Architects, which Landlord hereby approves as ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s architect. Tenant’s Plans shall consist of a full set of detailed, coordinated construction plans and specifications for the work necessary to perform Tenant’s Work (as defined below) and in suitable form for filing an application for a building permit with the City of Somerville.
Landlord shall respond to the initial submissions of the Interim Plans and Tenant’s Plans (either
by approval, request for additional information, request for revision or communication of a reasonably detailed reason for failure to approve) within ten (10) Business Days after the date of Landlord’s receipt thereof and to any re-submission within five (5) Business Days after receipt thereof (“Landlord’s Review Period”), and Landlord’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s determination of matters relating to aesthetic issues relating to alterations or changes visible outside the Premises shall be in Landlord’s sole discretion. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s approval is solely given for the benefit of Landlord under this Lease and neither Tenant nor any third party shall have the right to rely upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s approval of the TI Plans for any other purpose whatsoever.
Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of the TI Plans for the Premises (including, without limitation, compliance with all applicable laws, codes and regulations, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenant’s furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlord’s approval of the TI Plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design; provided however, Landlord shall be responsible for all elements of design of the Common Areas of the Building outside of the Premises and compliance with all applicable laws, codes and regulations and functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Building and the Common Areas. In addition, Landlord shall have the right to withhold approval of any alterations or work shown on the TI Plans to the extent that such alterations or work are inconsistent with the Schematic Plan or the Work Matrix (provided that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), that materially increases the scope of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work or that materially increases
the cost thereof beyond what is contemplated by the Schematic Plan and the Work Matrix, unless ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees, in ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s sole discretion, agrees to pay for such material increase in cost.
will not accept an alternative that would not be considered a Long Lead Item. Further, Landlord may not object to any items for which there is a long lead time in Tenant’s Plans to the extent such items were included in the Interim Plans and not identified by Landlord as a Long Lead
Item. Landlord will also give to Tenant Landlord’s good faith estimate of the period(s) of any delay which would be caused by any such Long Lead Item. Landlord shall not have the right to identify any Long Lead Items contained in or contemplated by the Interim Plans and Tenant’s Plans after Landlord’s Review Period for the Interim Plan and Tenant’s Plans, as the case may be (other than in connection with a Change Proposal, as described below). Any unavailability or delay in obtaining any item contained in the Interim Plans or Tenant Plans which Landlord did not identify as a Long Lead Item prior to the end of Landlord’s Review Period shall not constitute a delay due to Force Majeure and shall not excuse any delay or late delivery of the Premises or the Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work. Landlord,
Landlord’s Contractor and Tenant shall cooperatively work in good faith to avoid the use of such Long Lead Items not identified in the Schematic Plans, and it shall be reasonable for Landlord to request that Tenant revise such aspects of the Tenant’s Plans, unless the same were previously noted in the Schematic Plans, so as to avoid the use of such Long Lead Items; in furtherance of the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that with regards to base building systems (such as plumbing, electrical and HVAC), the manufacturer from whom Landlord has acquired such base building
item shall, unless otherwise specifically identified in the Interim Plans or Tenant’s Plans, be deemed acceptable for use in connection with Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall have the right to
either (a) revise Tenant’s Plans to eliminate any Long Lead Item(s), or (b) authorize Landlord to construct Tenant’s Work in accordance with Tenant’s Plans including any such Long Lead Items (any such approved Long Lead Items being hereinafter called “Tenant Approved Long Lead Items”) and any delay resulting from the inclusion of such Tenant Approved Long Lead Items shall be a Tenant Delay without the need for any additional notice to Tenant. Unless Landlord shall have unconditionally approved all of the Interim Plans and Tenant’s Plans, Tenant shall within five (5) Business Days after delivery of Landlord’s response to the Interim Plans and within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of Landlord’s response to Tenant’s Plans, as applicable, deliver to Landlord such additional information, documentation and/or revisions to
the Interim Plans and/or Tenant’s Plans as are necessary to obtain ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s approval thereof and this process shall continue until the Interim Plans and Tenant’s Plans are approved by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall, promptly following approval of Tenant’s Plans and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s receipt of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s request therefor, execute and deliver to Landlord any affidavits and documentation provided to Tenant by ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s architect and/or engineers preparing the TI Plans and required in order to obtain all permits and approvals necessary for Landlord to commence and complete Tenant’s Work (excluding any operational permits that are required in order for
Tenant to operate its business in the Premises, which such operational permits shall be Tenant’s sole responsibility to obtain) on a timely basis (“Permit Documentation”). Time is of the essence in connection with Tenant’s obligations under this Section 3.3.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Contractor to solicit and obtain at least three (3) subcontractor bids for each trade and materials provider expected to cost in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) (“Major Trade”) in connection with ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work. Tenant shall have the right to propose one (1) subcontractor for each Major Trade and to consult with Landlord and
Landlord’s Contractor regarding the preparation of the bid packages. All subcontractors shall be subject to Landlord’s prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Landlord and Landlord’s Contractor shall involve Tenant (and Tenant’s Construction Representative) in the preparation of the bid packages and the bidding process for each Major Trade, including reviewing with Tenant the bid packages and subcontractor responses and meeting with Tenant as reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ during such process. The bid packages shall require bids to identify all Long Lead Items and to specify estimated delivery dates therefor. Upon the conclusion of the bid solicitation process, Landlord shall deliver copies of the bids to Tenant (together with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s designation of the bid Landlord intends to accept). Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s efforts to expedite the bid process.
After receipt of the bids, Landlord shall have the right to select the subcontractor bids for Tenant’s Work. Landlord shall reasonably consult with Tenant on the selection of the subcontractor bids for the Major Trades, but Landlord shall have the right, without obtaining
Tenant’s approval, to select any subcontractor bids which Landlord deems to be qualified to perform the applicable portions of Tenant’s Work, taking into consideration (i) Landlord’s knowledge of the subcontractor project management staff for the subcontract in question, (ii) labor availability or capacity of the subcontractors in question to complete Tenant’s Work by the Delivery Date, (iii) scheduling and availability of material and equipment to complete Tenant’s Work by the Delivery Date.
After receipt of the bids and selection of the subcontractors, Landlord shall calculate and furnish to Tenant a “Total Costs Notice” for Tenant’s Work which shall constitute the aggregate (the “Total TI Costs”) of (i) the amounts payable under the subcontracts selected (and if and where ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Contractor is performing work that would be performed by a subcontractor,
the cost of such work) in the bid process and broken down by trade (“Direct Costs”), (ii) an estimate of the Construction Management Fee (as hereinafter defined), (iii) the amount of
Landlord’s Contractor’s fee and indirect costs, and (iv) a reasonable construction contingency (not to exceed 3% of the Total Costs Notice amount) and a reasonable design contingency (not to exceed 10% of the Total Costs Notice amount) (collectively, the “Contingencies”). Landlord shall charge, as part of the Total TI Costs, a construction management fee (the “Construction Management Fee”) for its management of Tenant’s Work in an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the hard costs of Tenant’s Work. The Construction Management Fee shall be paid from the Maximum Turnkey Amount as set forth in Section 3.6 below. In connection with the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant agree to use a Guaranteed Maximum Price contract for Tenant’s Work and that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work will be performed on an open book basis. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy, for informational purposes only, of the Guaranteed Maximum Price contract and any addendum thereto that is related to Tenant’s Work.
Within ten (10) Business Days after Landlord’s delivery of the Total Costs Notice (the “Initial Cost Approval Date”), Tenant may either approve the Total Costs Notice or provide changes to Tenant’s Plans to eliminate or revise one or more scope-of-work items included in Tenant’s Plans and request a revised Total Costs Notice. In the event that Tenant timely and properly requests such revised Total Costs Notice and submits changes to Tenant’s Plans,
Landlord shall reprice Tenant’s Plans for purposes of preparing a revised Total Costs Notice and deliver the revised Total Costs Notice within a reasonable time after such request and considering the scope of the changes proposed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. If Tenant fails to respond to the Total Costs Notice (either by approval of the Total Costs Notice or request for changes to Tenant’s Plans) within such ten (10) Business Day period following delivery by Landlord, Tenant shall be
deemed to have approved the Total Costs Notice in its entirety; provided, however that no such automatic approval shall occur unless ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s submission contains the following notice (the “Deemed Approval Language”), printed in a prominent place on the outside thereof in not less fourteen (14) point bold-faced type: “TENANT REVIEW REQUIRED; FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS SUBMISSION WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS SHALL RESULT IN AUTOMATIC APPROVAL PURSUANT TO LEASE SECTION 3.3(C)”. In
addition, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s request for a revised Total Costs Notice results in the Total Cost Notice not being approved or deemed approved within ten (10) Business Days after the Initial Cost Approval Date (the “Final Cost Approval Date”), Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the Total Costs Notice in its entirety (subject to the inclusion of the Deemed Approval Language as set forth above). Tenant acknowledges and agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s approval or deemed approval of the Total Cost Notice authorizing Landlord to commence the performance of Tenant’s Work by Final Cost Approval Date is a material condition to Landlord’s ability to complete Tenant’s Work by the Delivery Date. Once Tenant has approved the Total Costs Notice (or the Total Costs Notice is deemed approved), the parties shall promptly execute an instrument confirming the amount of the final Total Costs Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties may elect to bid, award, and release Long Lead Items prior to the Final Cost Approval Date. In such event, any such bids, awards and release of Long Lead Items shall be deemed approved for purposes of the Total Costs Notice.
include, but not be limited to, the work in the Work Matrix under the “Tenant” column (“Tenant’s Work”) to be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws, codes and regulations. Tenant and Tenant’s Construction Representatives, as defined in Section 3.9 below, shall have the right to observe the performance of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work at reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice to Landlord. In addition, commencing on the Date of this Lease Tenant shall have the right to have Tenant’s Construction Representative attend all regularly scheduled weekly project meetings with Landlord’s Contractor relating to
Tenant’s Work and the proposed construction schedule for ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work and, upon written request from ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with updated copies of the construction schedule for Tenant’s Work. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s architect or Construction Representative shall prepare and distribute to Tenant’s Construction Representative written minutes from such meetings.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to prioritize the construction and delivery of the laboratory portions of the Premises and to use reasonable efforts to deliver the laboratory portions of the Premises to Tenant before the office portions of the Premises, so long as such efforts do not result in overall construction delays. Landlord shall thereafter prioritize delivery of the office portions of the Premises that directly support the laboratory uses. Upon Substantial Completion of Tenant’s Work in the applicable portion(s) of the Premises, Tenant shall have the right to commence its operations in the laboratory portions of the Premises and, when available, the office portions of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date.
Tenant’s Work not conforming to the foregoing requirements will be considered defective.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s warranty hereunder shall not apply to the extent of damage or defect caused by (i) the negligent acts or omissions or the willful misconduct of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant, (ii) improper operation by Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant, or (iii) normal wear and tear and normal usage. The foregoing warranty with respect to each component of the
Landlord’s Work and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work shall commence with respect to the Premises on the date on which Landlord has substantially completed the applicable component of Landlord’s Work or
Tenant’s Work, as applicable, and shall expire on the date which is fifty-one (51) weeks after the commencement of the warranty on the applicable component of the Landlord’s Work or
Tenant’s Work (the “Warranty Period”), and Tenant shall be required to deliver notice to Landlord of any defects prior to the expiration of the Warranty Period in order to permit
Landlord to take action to enforce Landlord’s warranty rights with respect to Landlord’s Work and/or Tenant’s Work, as applicable. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that it shall correct any portion of
Landlord’s Work and/or Tenant’s Work, as the case may be, which during the applicable Warranty Period is found not to be in accordance with the warranties set forth in this
Section 3.3(e). Subject to the foregoing and to the last paragraph of Section 3.2 above, Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have accepted Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work unless, within the Warranty Period, Tenant gives Landlord a written notice setting forth in detail those portions of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work Tenant does not accept. To the extent Tenant is responsible for the maintenance or repair of the equipment or mechanical items included within Tenant’s Work, Landlord shall, to the extent assignable, assign the warranties relating to such equipment or mechanical items to Tenant; provided that if any such warranty may not be so assigned, Landlord will retain the same but will cooperate with Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, in pursuing, in Landlord’s name, any claim thereon which may arise while such warranty remains in effect.
Business Days after the submission thereof by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, advising Tenant of any anticipated
increase in costs (“TW Change Order Costs”) to perform Tenant’s Work associated with such Change Proposal, as well as an estimate of any delay which would likely result in the completion of Tenant’s Work if a Change Proposal is made pursuant thereto (“Landlord’s Change Order Response”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord will respond to any non-material Change Proposal within five (5) Business Days after submission thereof by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. With respect to Change Proposals for which a response cannot reasonably be developed within five (5) Business Days, Landlord shall within the five (5) Business Day response period advise Tenant of the steps necessary in order for Landlord to evaluate the Change Order Proposal and the date upon which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Change Order Response will be delivered, which shall not exceed twelve (12) Business Days (provided, however, that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to response within ten (10) Business Days). Tenant shall have the right within five (5) days after receiving
Landlord’s Change Order Response (or Landlord’s notice that a Change Proposal could not be evaluated within the five (5) Business Day response period set forth above) to then approve or withdraw such Change Proposal. If ▇▇▇▇▇▇ fails to respond to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Change Order
Response within such five (5) day period, such Change Proposal shall be deemed withdrawn. If Tenant approves such Change Proposal, then such Change Proposal shall be deemed a “TW Change Order” hereunder and the TW Change Order Costs associated with the Change Order shall be deemed additions to the Total Costs Notice.
that can be completed without unreasonable interference with ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s use and occupancy of the Premises for the regular conduct of business (“Punch List Items”), provided that in the event of any dispute between Landlord and Tenant regarding whether or not Tenant’s Work is Substantially Complete, or if Tenant or Tenant’s architect shall fail to attend such inspection, the determination of Landlord’s architect, acting reasonably, as to whether Tenant’s Work is Substantially Complete, and any list of punch list items developed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and/or
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s architect, shall be final and binding on Landlord and ▇▇▇▇▇▇. Landlord shall promptly complete all Punch List Items, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, and shall use reasonable efforts to complete all Punch List Items within thirty (30) days after the date of Substantial Completion.
Landlord’s Work directly affecting the Premises, Landlord shall allow Tenant’s Construction Representative and such other representatives, contractors, agents and employees as Tenant deems advisable to review and make copies of plans and specifications (including all changes thereto) and generally to review the progress of all Landlord Work directly affecting the Premises (including the facilities and equipment serving the same). Such reviews shall be scheduled so as not to interfere with the conduct of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall be provided with copies of all changes or supplements to the construction plans for
Landlord’s Work directly affecting the Premises (including the facilities and equipment serving the same) when the same are given to Landlord’s Contractor.
Landlord shall maintain full and detailed accounts, books and records including, without limitation, purchase orders, receipts, bids and subcontracts, on a discipline by discipline basis, for the costs of expenses relating to Tenant Work’s with third party vendors and sub-contractors. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a final accounting (the “Final Accounting”) in reasonable detail, together with all backup and supporting materials reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, prepared by Landlord for all Direct Costs of Tenant’s Work (including TW Change Order Costs and costs related to Tenant Delay) and other costs on the Total Costs Notice and Tenant will be permitted, upon request, to review all the backup and supporting materials. Landlord shall cause its contractors, architects, engineers and consultants to keep full and detailed accounts and exercise such controls as may be necessary for proper financial management of Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall have the right to examine and copy all books and records referenced in this paragraph for up to seven (7) years from Substantial Completion of Tenant’s Work, upon at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to Landlord.
Tenant’s Plans, (ii) Tenant’s security systems for the Premises, (iii) the purchase and installation of Tenant’s audio-visual equipment for the Premises, and (iv) Tenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment for the Premises. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay the entire cost of Landlord’s Work and Tenant shall not be liable therefor.
The cost of Tenant’s Work shall be allocated as follows: The parties acknowledge that the Total TI Costs of Tenant’s Work is anticipated to be $324.50 per square foot of Premises Rentable Area (the “Maximum Turnkey Amount”), as shown on the Preliminary Pricing schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A-6. If the Total TI Costs exceed the Maximum Turnkey
Amount, then (i) to the extent that the increase in Total TI Costs is attributable to a change in the scope of Tenant’s Work from that shown on or contemplated by the Schematic Plans or Work Matrix and/or to additional design elements, or a change to design elements, of Tenant’s Work beyond those shown on or contemplated by the Schematic Plans or Work Matrix, then such increase in the Total TI Costs (i.e., the difference per square foot of Premises Rentable Area between the Total TI Costs per square foot of Premises Rentable Area and $324.50 per square foot of Premises Rentable Area) shall be Excess Costs (but shall not constitute a Tenant Delay) and shall be paid by first applying any unused amount, following the final determination of the costs of Tenant’s Work, of the Contingencies and then paid by Tenant; and (ii) to the extent that the increase in costs is not attributable to a change in the scope of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work from that shown on or contemplated by the Schematic Plans or Work Matrix and/or to additional design
elements, or a change to design elements, of Tenant’s Work beyond those shown on or contemplated by the Schematic Plans or Work Matrix, then such increase in the Total TI Costs (i.e., the difference per square foot of Premises Rentable Area between the Total TI Costs per square foot of Premises Rentable Area and $324.50 per square foot of Premises Rentable Area) shall be paid by Landlord. If the Total TI Costs per rentable square foot are less than the Maximum Turnkey Amount for any reason, then Annual Fixed Rent per square foot of Premises Rentable Area per annum as set forth in Section 1.1 above shall be decreased by the amount necessary to amortize such difference between $324.50 and the actual Total TI Costs on a rentable square foot basis over a seventy-two (72) month period with interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. For the avoidance of doubt, if the actual Total TI Costs as finally determined are $320.50 per rentable square foot, Annual Fixed Rent would be adjusted to
provide for a Financed Fit-Out Rent of $38.08 per rentable square foot per annum (as opposed to
$38.92 per rentable square foot per annum), and the Financed Fit-Out Rent schedule set forth on Exhibit M shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change. Following completion of
Tenant’s Work and the final calculation of the Total TI Costs, Landlord shall deliver the Final Accounting to Tenant and the parties shall promptly execute an amendment to this Lease that makes such changes thereto as shall be required as a result thereof.
Tenant’s failure to submit ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Interim Plans by the Design Submission Date and/or Tenant’s Plans by the Plan Submission Date or to provide to Landlord any Permit
Documentation required to be submitted in connection with the application for a building permit for Tenant’s Work within the timeframes set forth herein for delivery of the same, (ii) any delay due to any Change Proposals or Tenant Approved Long Lead Items (except to the extent due to Landlord’s or Landlord’s Contractor’s failure to timely order the Tenant Approved Long Lead Items or to the extent such Long Lead Items are included in or contemplated by the Schematic Plans or the Work Matrix) and any delays due to any errors, defects, discrepancies or inconsistencies in Tenant’s Plans, (iii) failure of Tenant’s Plans to comply with applicable laws, codes or regulations or any failure of Tenant or Tenant’s architect to respond to requests within the time period set forth in this Article 3, (iv) any delay due to Tenant’s or Tenant’s vendors or contractors accessing the Premises or the Building prior to the Commencement Date (except as permitted in accordance with Section 3.8), provided, however, that the contractors performing
Landlord’s Work and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work shall not be deemed to be Tenant’s vendor or contractor, and any interference by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or anyone acting under Tenant with the performance of
Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work, (v) Tenant’s failure to have completed the installation of its security systems, audio-visual equipment, furniture, and/or lab equipment prior to the date on which Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work would have been Substantially Complete but for such failure, or (vi) any other negligent or wrongful act or omission by Tenant, its employees, agents or contractors. The Delivery Date shall automatically be extended for the period of any delays caused by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇(s) or Force Majeure so long as Landlord shall have provided written notice thereof to Tenant in a timely manner as provided in Section 3.1 above. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the amount of any increase in the cost of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work due to Tenant Delay (such amounts being the “Excess Costs”) exceeds the unused Contingencies, within thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord given together with reasonable supporting documentation establishing such Excess Cost.
“Force Majeure” shall be defined as any strike or other labor trouble, fire, flood or other casualty, breakage, accident, repairs, unusually severe weather, governmental preemption of priorities or other controls in connection with a national or other public emergency, governmental moratoria, or inaction of governmental authority (or shortages of fuel, supplies or labor resulting therefrom), war, civil commotion, labor or transportation difficulties, inability to obtain supplies outside Landlord’s or Tenant’s reasonable control, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar, beyond Landlord’s reasonable control; excluding, however, any financial difficulties.
The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall be subject to the second sentence of Section 3.4
hereof), Landlord shall so notify Tenant and from and after such date of notification Tenant and its contractors shall have access to the Premises for the purposes of installing the same in preparation for Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises; provided, however, that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to provide Tenant and its contractors with such access at least sixty (60) days’ prior to the date on which Landlord reasonably expects to achieve Substantial Completion of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Work. In connection with such access, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees (i) to cease promptly upon notice from Landlord any activity or work which has not been approved by Landlord (where such approval is required) or is not in compliance with the provisions of this
Lease or which shall interfere with or delay the performance of Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work, and (ii) to comply and cause its contractors to comply promptly with all reasonable procedures and regulations prescribed by Landlord from time to time for coordinating work being performed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and work being performed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, each with the other and with any other activity or work in the Building including, without limitation, the use of labor which shall work in harmony with all other contractors performing work at the Building. Such access by Tenant shall be deemed to be subject to all of the applicable provisions of this Lease as if the term had commenced, except that (i) there shall be no obligation on the part of Tenant solely because of such access to pay any Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent for Taxes or Operating Costs for any period prior to the Rent Commencement Date, and (ii) Tenant shall not be deemed thereby to have taken or accepted possession of the Premises or any portion thereof. If Tenant fails or refuses to comply or cause its contractors to comply with any of the obligations described or referred to above, then Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, and Tenant shall use diligent efforts to comply and cause its contractors to comply, and if such non-compliance is not cured within two (2) Business Days after Landlord’s written notice to Tenant, Landlord may revoke Tenant’s rights of access to the Premises until the Commencement Date.
connection with any matters arising pursuant to this Article 3. The Construction Representative may be changed from time to time by notice hereunder from the then current Construction Representative to the other party’s Construction Representative or by notice from Landlord or Tenant pursuant to Section 10.1. The initial Construction Representatives shall be ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (Landlord) and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (Tenant). Notwithstanding Section 10.1, any notices or other communication under this Article 3 may be made by letter or other writing sent by U.S.
mail, facsimile or email, provided the communication is made by one party’s Construction Representative to the other party’s Construction Representative.
Article 4
Rent, Additional Rent, Insurance and Other Charges
and 5.2 and Article 7), deduction or demand. Beginning on the Rent Commencement Date, Annual Fixed Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the term of this Lease, at the Account for Payment of Rent, or at such other place as Landlord shall from time to time designate by notice, by check drawn on a domestic bank.
The monthly payment of Annual Fixed Rent for any partial month at the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease shall be prorated on a daily basis (based on a 30-day month), and if Annual Fixed Rent commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the first monthly payment which Tenant shall make to Landlord shall be payable on the date Annual Fixed Rent commences and shall be equal to such pro-rated amount plus the monthly installment of Annual Fixed Rent for the succeeding calendar month.
Tenant shall have the right, in ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s sole discretion, and from time to time, to pre-pay all or any portion of the principal portion of the Financed Fit-Out Rent, without penalty, cost, fee or premium. The Financed Fit-Out Rent set forth in the table in Section 1.1 above was calculated by amortizing the principal amount of Seven Million Eight Hundred Seventy-Seven Thousand Three Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($7,877,300.00) over a seventy-two (72) month period (such that the Financed Fit-Out Rent shall be payable during the Original Term only), commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, and such amortization was calculated on a monthly basis using an eight percent (8%) interest rate. Attached hereto as Exhibit M is the amortization schedule for the Financed Fit-Out Rent. Upon any partial prepayment of the principal portion of the Financed Fit-Out Rent, the Financed Fit-Out Rent for the remainder of the Original Term shall be recalculated by amortizing the remaining principal amount of the Financed Fit-Out Rent, after applying the amount of prepayment, over the remaining full calendar months in the Original Term, and such amortization shall be calculated on a monthly basis using an eight percent (8%) interest rate. For example, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ makes a prepayment of
$2,000,000 at the end of the twenty-fourth (24th) month following the Rent Commencement Date (i.e., as of the end of Month 28 in the rent schedule set forth in Section 1.1), Annual Fixed Rent shall be adjusted, commencing as of Month 29 in the rent schedule set forth in Section 1.1, to provide for a Financed Fit-Out Rent of $25.16 per rentable square foot per annum (as opposed to
$38.92 per rentable square foot per annum), and the Financed Fit-Out Rent schedule set forth on Exhibit M shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change. Within ten (10) Business Days after ▇▇▇▇▇▇ delivers a prepayment of the Financed Fit-Out Rent to Landlord, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment of this Lease memorializing the reduction in the amount of the Financed Fit-Out Rent and the Annual Fixed Rent. Within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant has paid the principal portion of the Financed Fit-Out Rent in full, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment of this Lease acknowledging that Tenant’s obligation to pay the Financed Fit-Out Rent has been satisfied in full and the reduction in the Annual Fixed Rent.
Tenant to Landlord (all such amounts referred to in this sentence being “Additional Rent”). If the Building becomes part of a larger development or project which has shared Operating Costs and/or Taxes, Operating Costs and/or Taxes, as applicable, attributable in part to the Building
and in part to other portions of such development or project shall be allocated to the Building and said other portions of the project or development an equitable basis.
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each calendar month during the term but otherwise in the manner provided for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent, estimated payments on account of Tenant's Tax Obligation, such monthly amounts to be sufficient to provide Landlord by the time Tax payments are due or are to be made by Landlord a sum equal to Tenant's Tax Obligation, as reasonably estimated by Landlord from time to time on account of Taxes for the then current Operating Year. If the total of such monthly remittances for any Operating Year is greater than Tenant's Tax Obligation for such Operating Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against Tenant's subsequent obligations on account of Taxes (or promptly refund such overpayment if the term of this Lease has ended and Tenant has no further obligations to Landlord); if the total of such remittances is less than Tenant's Tax Obligation for such Operating Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within thirty (30) days after being so notified by Landlord.
If, after Tenant shall have made all payments due to Landlord pursuant to this Subsection 4.2.1, Landlord shall receive a refund of any portion of Taxes as a result of an abatement of such Taxes by legal proceedings, settlement or otherwise (without either party having any obligation
to undertake any such proceedings), Landlord shall pay or credit to Tenant Tenant’s Percentage of that percentage of the refund (after first deducting any expenses, including attorneys’, consultants’ and appraisers’ fees, incurred in connection with obtaining any such refund) which
equals the percentage of the applicable Tax Year included in the term hereof, provided however, in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive more than the sum of payments actually made by Tenant on account of Taxes with respect to such Tax Year.
In the event that the Rent Commencement Date shall occur or the term of this Lease shall expire or be terminated during any Tax Year, or should the Tax Year or period of assessment of real estate taxes be changed or be more or less than one (1) year, or should Tenant’s Percentage be modified during any Tax Year due to a change in the rentable area of the Building and/or the Premises or otherwise, as the case may be, then the amount of the monthly payment of Tax Excess which may be otherwise payable by Tenant as provided in this Subsection 4.2.1 shall be pro-rated on a daily basis based on a 30-day month.
“Taxes” shall mean all taxes, assessments, excises and other charges and impositions which are general or special, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, of any kind or nature which are levied, assessed or imposed by any governmental authority upon or against or with respect to the Property, Landlord or the owner or lessee of personal property used by or on behalf of Landlord in connection with the Property, or taxes in lieu thereof, and additional types of taxes to supplement real estate taxes due to legal limits imposed thereon. If, at any time, any
tax or excise on rents or other taxes, however described, are levied or assessed against Landlord, either wholly or partially in substitution for, or in addition to, real estate taxes assessed or levied on the Property, such tax or excise on rents from the Property shall be included in Taxes; however, Taxes shall not include franchise, estate, inheritance, income (except to the extent that a tax on income or revenue is levied solely on rental revenues and not on other types of income and then only from rental revenue generated by the Property) or capital levy taxes assessed on Landlord. Taxes also shall include all reasonable, out-of-pocket court costs, attorneys’,
consultants’ and accountants’ fees, and other expenses reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with any efforts to obtain abatements or reduction of Taxes for any year within the Term. Landlord shall account for such expenses and for any reduction in Taxes in the year in which such expenses were incurred or the year in which such tax reduction was granted, as applicable, and if such reduction affects more than one (1) year, the expenses shall be amortized over each year for which a reduction is granted. Taxes shall include any estimated payment made by Landlord on account of a fiscal tax period for which the actual and final amount of taxes for such period has not been determined by the governmental authority as of the date of any such estimated payment.
month period established by Landlord (an “Operating Year”) during the term of this Lease (Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Costs being “Tenant’s Operating Cost Obligation”). Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each calendar month during the term but otherwise in the manner provided for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent, estimated payments on account of Tenant’s Operating Cost Obligation, such monthly amounts to be sufficient to provide to Landlord, by the end of each Operating Year, a sum equal to Tenant’s Operating Cost Obligation for such Operating Year, as estimated by Landlord from time to time. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Operating Year during the term, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant an itemized statement setting forth the amount of Operating Costs for the preceding Operating Year and a computation of Tenant’s Operating Cost Obligation, prepared and computed in accordance with then prevailing customs and practices of the real estate industry, consistently applied. Any such year-end statement by Landlord relating to Operating Costs shall be final and binding upon Tenant unless it shall give a Tenant’s Audit Notice, as defined below. If, at the expiration of each Operating Year in respect of which monthly installments on account of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Operating Cost Obligation shall have been made as aforesaid, the total of such monthly remittances is greater
than Tenant’s Operating Cost Obligation for such Operating Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s subsequent obligations on account of Operating Costs (or promptly refund such overpayment if the term of this Lease has ended and Tenant has no further obligation to Landlord); if the total of such remittances is less than Tenant’s Operating Cost Obligation for such Operating Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within thirty
(30) days after being so notified by Landlord.
Any cost not included in a year-end statement of Operating Costs (each an “Omitted Cost”) within twenty-four (24) months of the date any such Omitted Cost has been incurred shall not be payable by Tenant. Further, if (a) such Omitted Cost is a capital item subject to amortization as provided below, the Omitted Cost will be amortized over the remainder of the
useful life of such capital items, and (b) such Omitted Cost is not a capital item subject to amortization and the amount of the Omitted Cost exceeds $25,000.00, one-half (1/2) of such Omitted Cost shall be due from Tenant over each of the next two (2) Operating Years, without interest.
In the event that the Rent Commencement Date shall occur or the term of this Lease shall expire or be terminated during any Operating Year or Tenant’s Percentage shall be modified during any Operating Year due to a change in the rentable area of the Building and/or the Premises or otherwise, as the case may be, then the monthly payment amount of Operating Cost Excess which may be payable by Tenant as provided in this Subsection 4.2.2 shall be pro-rated on a daily basis based on a 30-day month.
“Operating Costs” shall include, without limitation, all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred for the operation, cleaning, management, maintenance, repair, upkeep and security of the Property, including, without limitation:
relating to the Property and premiums for fidelity bonds covering persons having custody or control over funds or other property of Landlord relating to the Property;
Landlord’s obligations under Article 5, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s office overhead costs provided that, if any such administrative or supervisory personnel are also employed on other property of Landlord, such cost of compensation shall be suitably prorated among the Property and such other properties; and
If, during the term of this Lease, Landlord, in its sole discretion, installs a new or replacement capital item for the purpose of (i) complying with any law, rule, regulation, order or ordinance, or any amendment thereto or interpretation thereof, first enacted after the Commencement Date or (ii) reducing (or avoiding increases in) Operating Costs otherwise relating to the operation of the Building, the cost of such item amortized on a straight line basis over its useful life and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)
with interest at the “Prime Rate” (as published in the Wall Street Journal or comparable financial publication reasonably selected by Landlord) plus two percent (2%) shall be included in Operating Costs; provided, however, that the annual amortized costs of the capital item in clause
(ii) of this sentence included in Operating Costs shall not exceed the actual annual savings resulting from such expenditure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, replacements of the structural elements of the Building (including the Parking Facility, as defined in Section 5.5 below) including the roof, structural columns, floor slabs and exterior walls thereof, which replacements would properly be categorized as capital expenditure according to generally accepted accounting principles, shall not be included in Operating Costs.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Operating Costs shall not include (i) any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in the construction and development of the Building, including construction for tenants and/or costs to prepare, renovate, repaint, redecorate or perform any other work in any space leased to an existing tenant or prospective tenant of the Building; (ii) payments of principal, interest or other charges on mortgages;
(iii) costs for categories of services provided to other tenants but not to Tenant and the costs of any subsidies provided to any other tenants that are not provided to Tenant; (iv) intentionally omitted; (v) costs incurred in connection with the making of repairs or replacements which are the obligation of another tenant or occupant of the Building; (vi) advertising, marketing, promotional, public relations or brokerage fees, commissions or expenditures; (vii) interest or penalties for any failed or untimely payments by Landlord under any contract or agreement;
(viii) costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with any judgment, settlement or arbitration award resulting from any gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents; (ix) costs of electricity or utilities furnished directly to any premises of other tenants of the Building where such utility is separately metered to such premises or such tenant pays a separate charge therefor; (x) costs incurred in connection with Landlord’s preparation, negotiation, dispute resolution and/or
enforcement of leases, including court costs and attorneys’ fees and disbursements in connection with any summary proceeding to dispossess any other tenant, or incurred in connection with disputes with prospective tenants, leasing agents, purchasers or mortgagees; (xi) costs of repairs, restoration or replacements occasioned by fire or other casualty, or caused by the exercise of the right of eminent domain (other than commercially reasonable deductibles or commercially reasonable self-insured retention amounts, which amounts shall be included in Operating Costs);
(xii) legal and other professional fees relating to matters which are excluded from Operating Costs for the Building; (xiii) costs to make improvements, alterations and additions to the Building which are required in order to remedy violations of laws, rules, orders, regulations and/or directives that existed on the Commencement Date; (xiv) depreciation; (xv) amounts other than the management fee specified above paid to subsidiaries or Affiliates of Landlord for services rendered to the Building to the extent such amounts exceed the competitive costs for delivery of such services were they not provided by such related parties; (xvi) expenditures for new or replacement capital items other than those which are expressly permitted above; (xvii) expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any financing, sale or syndication of the Building or any portion thereof; (xviii) interest, principal, points and fees, amortization or other costs associated with any debt and rent payable under any lease to which this Lease is subject and all costs and expenses associated with any such debt or lease and any ground lease rent, irrespective of whether this Lease is subject or subordinate thereto; (xix) expenditures for the replacement of any item covered by installation of or any warranty (to the extent of the coverage
of such warranty); (xx) costs to correct any penalty or fine incurred by Landlord due to Landlord’s or its employees, agents or contractors violation of any federal, state, or local law or regulation and any interest or penalties due for late payment by Landlord of any of the Operating Costs; (xxi) the wages of any employee for services not related directly (in whole or part) to the management, maintenance, operation and repair of the Building provided that if such employee is also employed on other property of Landlord, such wages shall be suitably prorated among the Building and such other properties; (xxii) Landlord’s general corporate overhead and administrative expenses except to the extent related to the Building; (xxiii) reserves; (xxiv) costs to the extent that another party compensates or pays so that Landlord shall not recover any item of cost more than once; (xxv) costs of correcting any latent defects or original design defects in
the Building’s construction, materials, or equipment during the Original Term, Landlord agreeing to use reasonable efforts to determine whether any required repairs are due to latent defects or original design defects; (xxvi) costs of correcting any damage caused by any subway or mass transit line; (xxvii) cost of any repair, replacement or correction due to the Building, including but not limited to the roof and the foundation, not being in good condition and repair as of the Commencement Date; and (xxviii) the cost of investigating or monitoring of site conditions, repair cleanup, containment, remediation, removal or restoration work or detoxification of the Property as provided in Section 5.6 below. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant shall not be responsible for any Operating Costs that are specifically incurred in connection with subsidizing, improving, installing, managing, operating, maintaining, repairing or replacing any components of the Building (including the Common Areas) that are dedicated exclusively to retail use.
In addition, if during any portion of any Operating Year for which Operating Costs are being computed, less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area of the Building was leased to tenants or if Landlord is supplying less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area of the Building with the services and utilities being supplied hereunder, Landlord may, at its option, reasonably project, on an item-by-item basis, consistently applied, the Operating Costs that would have been incurred if ninety-five percent (95%) of the Building were occupied for such Operating Year and such services and utilities were being supplied to ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area of the Building, and such projected amount shall, for the purposes hereof, be deemed to be the Operating Costs for such Operating Year.
Upon the written request of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“Tenant’s Audit Notice”), and provided Tenant shall have paid all amounts invoiced by Landlord on account of Operating Costs for the applicable Operating Year, Tenant shall have the right to examine ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s books and records applicable to Operating Costs for such Operating Year, provided such review is commenced within one hundred and twenty (120) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s final statement of Operating Costs for the applicable Operating Year (the “Final Statement”) and thereafter undertaken by Tenant or its accountants (provided such accountants are compensated (i) at an hourly rate, (ii) on a flat fee basis or (iii) on contractual basis where one-half (1/2) of the fee is on a flat fee basis and one-half (1/2) of the fee is on a contingency fee basis where such contingency fee does not exceed 200% of the flat fee) with due diligence. Such right to examine the records shall be exercisable upon reasonable advance notice to Landlord and at reasonable times during ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s business hours. If Tenant objects to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s accounting of any Operating Costs, Tenant shall, on or before the date one hundred and eighty (180) days following receipt of the Final Statement, notify Landlord that Tenant disputes the correctness of such accounting,
specifying the particular line items which Tenant claims are incorrect otherwise, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived any and all objections to such Final Statement. Tenant shall pay all costs of the audit, provided, however, if it is determined that Tenant overpaid Additional Rent for Operating Costs by more than four percent (4%) for the year in question, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all reasonable costs of the audit, not to exceed Ten Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($10,000.00) for a particular audit, and the amount of the overcharge shall be credited against Tenant’s next payment of Operating Costs (or refund such amount to Tenant within thirty
(30) days if the Term has ended and Tenant has no further obligations to under this Lease). If the audit shall determine that Tenant was undercharged for the Landlord’s Operating Costs, Landlord may invoice Tenant for such amount and Tenant shall pay the amount of such undercharge to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of such invoice. If the audit shows that Tenant overpaid Additional Rent for Operating Costs by more than four percent (4%), Tenant shall have the right to review and audit Operating Costs for the prior three (3) years.
liability (which shall include coverage for Tenant’s indemnification obligations under this Lease), bodily injury (including death and mental anguish), third-party property damage, fire legal liability, host liquor liability, premises and operations. The minimum limits of insurance shall be no less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, and $1,000,000 personal and advertising injury, with such per occurrence and general aggregate limits applying on a per location basis, and with such coverage including
Tenant as a Named Insured. Landlord, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Agent, and the holder of any mortgage on the Premises or Property, as set out in a notice from time to time, along with
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Agents’ directors, officers, principals, members, partners, shareholders, employees, successors, and assigns (collectively, including Landlord, “Landlord Insureds”) shall be named as additional insureds as their interests may appear. Such additional insured status must be afforded to the fullest extent permitted by law by way of the ISO CG 20 11 04 13 endorsement (or its equivalent). Such insurance shall include a separation of insureds endorsement, shall be primary and not contributing with or in excess of coverage that the Landlord or Landlord Insureds may carry, and shall be endorsed to provide a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Landlord Insureds by means of the ISO CG 24 04 endorsement (or its equivalent). No policy maintained by Tenant under this Section 4.4.1 shall contain a deductible greater than $5,000;
$10,000,000. Such insurance shall include the Landlord Insureds as an additional insured and shall provide a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Landlord. Such insurance shall be maintained for a period of time under which a claim may be properly asserted under the applicable statute of limitations or repose;
Tenant (“Tenant’s Improvements”) makes to the Premises after taking possession of Premises. Such insurance shall be written on a special cause of loss property insurance form. Such insurance shall include coverage for sprinkler leakage, leakage from any window or sill, and water damage, including bursting, leakage, or stoppage of any pipes, provided that such coverage is commercially available and Landlord does not otherwise approve Tenant’s insurance without such coverage. Such insurance shall not include a deductible of greater than $10,000 unless otherwise approved by Landlord. In the event of a loss at the Premises whereby Tenant’s Improvements are damaged, Tenant shall use any applicable insurance proceeds for the repair or replacement of the Tenant’s Improvements at the Premises. The Landlord shall have no interest in the insurance covering the Tenant’s Property and will not carry insurance on the Tenant’s Property; however, Landlord will sign all documents reasonably necessary in connection with the settlement of any claim or loss on behalf of the Tenant;
insurance is primary, excess, self insurance, or on any other basis. Said umbrella / excess liability coverage must be vertically exhausted where it is not subject to any “other
insurance” provision under Tenant’s commercial general liability, commercial automobile liability, employers liability, or umbrella / excess insurance policies;
$1,000,000 per claim and in the annual aggregate, providing coverage for employment- related claims made by employees and by third parties, with third party coverage provided by endorsement, including, but not limited to, claims for discrimination, wrongful termination, and harassment. Said policy must include full prior acts coverage or a retroactive date not later than the date of the Lease; and
Subsection 4.4.2, or otherwise, Landlord shall provide Tenant with at least fifteen (15) days written notice of such non-compliant coverage. If Tenant does not provide Landlord with evidence of coverage for any non-compliant coverage, then Landlord may, at its’ option and at Tenant’s expense, purchase such insurance coverage that is not compliant with the Lease.
Should Tenant at any time maintain higher limits than the minimum limits required herein, such higher limits shall be deemed required by this Lease for so long as such higher limits are maintained.
Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective insurance carriers to waive any and all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of action against the other for any loss or damage to person with respect to Tenant’s property, any leasehold improvements, the Building, the common areas of the Building, the Premises, or any contents thereof, including rights, claims, actions and causes of action based on negligence, which loss, damage or injury is (or would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried) covered by insurance.
Tenant acknowledges that Annual Fixed Rent does not include the cost of supplying utilities to the Premises. The Premises shall, as part of Tenant’s Work, be separately metered for
electricity and Tenant shall contract directly with the public utility for a supply of electricity to the Premises and shall pay all bills therefor when due.
Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent all cost of water and gas supplied to the Premises as determined by Landlord by submetering or similar device and the cost of installing, operating, maintaining and repairing any meter or other device used to measure Tenant’s water and gas consumption and any cost incurred by Landlord in keeping account of or determining Tenant’s water and gas consumption. Alternatively, at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Percentage of the charges for water and gas allocable to those portions of the Building leased or intended to be leased to tenants, within ten days of invoice therefor, provided however if some or all of the areas leased or intended to be leased to tenants are separately metered for water and/or gas, such Tenant’s Percentage for purposes of this Section 4.5 only shall be determined by dividing the rentable area of the Premises by the rentable area of the portions of the Building not separately metered for water and/or gas consumption, as the case may be.
If the Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent payable hereunder shall be overdue and unpaid or should Landlord make any payment on behalf of the Tenant, or Tenant shall fail to perform any of the terms of this Lease, then Landlord may, at its option and without notice or prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, appropriate and apply the entire Security Deposit or so much thereof as may be necessary to compensate Landlord toward the payment of Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other sums or loss or damage sustained by Landlord due to such breach by Tenant, provided that Landlord shall not appropriate and apply the Security Deposit on account of any breach of this Lease by Tenant unless Tenant’s breach of this Lease shall have ripened into a Default of Tenant (i.e. after any applicable notice and expiration of any applicable cure period); and Tenant shall forthwith upon demand restore the Security Deposit to the amount stated in Section 1.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the application by Landlord of all or any portion of the Security Deposit (with or without notice thereof to Tenant) to compensate Landlord for a failure by Tenant to pay any Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent when due or to perform any other obligation hereunder, and until Tenant shall have restored the Security Deposit to the amount required by Section 1.1, Tenant shall be deemed to be in default in the payment of Additional Rent for purposes of Section 8.1(a)(I) hereof. So long as Tenant shall not be in default of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall return the Security Deposit, or so much thereof as shall have not theretofore been applied in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.7 (and less any amounts Landlord shall estimate shall be due from Tenant following year-end reconciliation of Operating Costs and Taxes) to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease and the surrender of possession of the Premises by Tenant to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease. While Landlord holds the Security Deposit, Landlord shall have no obligation to pay interest on the same and shall have the right to commingle the same with Landlord’s other funds, provided that Landlord keeps an accounting of the Security Deposit. If Landlord conveys Landlord’s interest under this Lease, the Security Deposit, or any part thereof not previously applied, shall be turned over by Landlord to Landlord’s grantee, and Tenant shall look solely to such grantee for proper application of the Security Deposit in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.7 and the return thereof in accordance herewith. The holder of a mortgage on the Property shall not be responsible to Tenant for the return or application of the Security Deposit, whether or not it succeeds to the position of Landlord hereunder, unless such holder actually receives the Security Deposit.
Tenant shall post the Security Deposit in the form of a letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) (which shall be in the form attached as Exhibit K or such other form reasonably approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which satisfied the requirements of this paragraph), which shall (a) be unconditional and irrevocable and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord; (b) permit multiple draws; (c) be issued by a commercial bank reasonably acceptable to Landlord from time to time; (d) be made payable to, and expressly transferable and assignable at no charge by, Landlord; (e) be payable at sight upon presentment of a sight draft accompanied by a certificate of Landlord stating either that there is a Default of Tenant or that Landlord is otherwise permitted to draw upon such Letter of Credit under the express terms of this Lease, and the amount that Landlord is owed (or is permitted to draw) in connection therewith; and (f) expire not earlier than thirty (30) days following the expiration of the term of this Lease, provided however such Letter of Credit may expire one (1) year following date of issuance but in such case Tenant shall deliver a replacement Letter of Credit and subsequent replacement Letters
of Credit not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any existing Letter of Credit so that the original Letter of Credit or a replacement thereof (each of whose expiration date shall be not earlier than one year from issuance) shall be in full force and effect throughout the term of this Lease and for a period of at least ninety (90) days thereafter. Tenant shall maintain the Letter of Credit in the amount of the Security Deposit and shall deliver to Landlord any replacement Letter of Credit not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then current Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, any grace period or cure periods which are otherwise applicable under Section 8.1 hereof, shall not apply to any of the foregoing, and, specifically, if Tenant fails to comply with the requirements of subsection (f) above or if Tenant shall fail to maintain the Letter of Credit in the full amount of the Security Deposit after any draw thereon by Landlord, Landlord shall have the immediate right to draw upon the Letter of Credit in full and hold the proceeds thereof as a cash security deposit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by a commercial bank that has a credit rating with respect to certificates of deposit, short term deposits or commercial paper of at least P-2 (or equivalent) by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investor Service, Inc., or at least A-2 (or equivalent) by Standard & Poor’s Corporation. If the issuer’s credit rating is reduced below P-2 (or equivalent) by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investor Service, Inc., or at least A-2 (or equivalent) by Standard & Poor’s Corporation, or if the financial condition of the issuer changes in any other materially adverse way, then Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant obtain from a different issuer a substitute Letter of Credit
that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s failure to obtain such substitute Letter of Credit within ten (10) days after Landlord’s demand therefor (with no other notice, or grace or cure period being applicable thereto) shall entitle Landlord immediately to draw upon the existing Letter of Credit in full, without any further notice to Tenant. Landlord may use, apply or retain the proceeds of the Letter of Credit to the same extent that Landlord may use, apply or retain any cash security deposit, as set forth herein. If Landlord is entitled to draw on the Letter of Credit, Landlord may draw on the Letter of Credit, in whole or in part, at Landlord’s election. If Landlord draws against the Letter of Credit, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord, provide Landlord with either an additional Letter of Credit in the amount so drawn or an amendment to the existing Letter of Credit restoring the amount thereof to the amount initially provided. Tenant hereby agrees to cooperate promptly, at its expense with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to execute and deliver to Landlord any modifications, amendments and replacements of the Letter of Credit, as Landlord may reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions hereof.
Article 5
Landlord’s Covenants

that individual occupants’ comfort ranges may vary, and reasonable variations may be necessary for or desirable by Tenant, in which cases the parties shall reasonably confer to reconcile any differences. Landlord, as part of Tenant’s Work, shall install all exhaust air ductwork, piping, terminal boxes, registers and controls to distribute all heat, ventilation and air conditioning (“HVAC”) within the Premises. If the temperature otherwise maintained in any portion of the Premises by the HVAC system is affected as a result of (i) the type or quantity of any lights, machines or equipment used by Tenant in the Premises, (ii) the average occupancy of any portion of the Premises by more than one person per one hundred eighty-five (185) square feet of rentable area, (iii) an electrical load for lighting or power in excess of the limits specified in Subsection 6.2.4, or (iv) any partitioning or other improvements installed by Tenant, then at
Tenant’s sole cost, Landlord may install any equipment, or modify any existing equipment Landlord deems necessary to restore the temperature balance. Tenant agrees to keep closed, when necessary, blinds or other window treatments which, because of the sun’s position, must be closed to provide for the efficient operation of the air conditioning system, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to cooperate with Landlord and to abide by the reasonable regulations and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC system.
Landlord shall have no responsibility for providing any service from Separate HVAC Equipment, as defined in Subsection 6.1.3.
Tenant and Landlord agree that the removal, disposal, or destruction of all items listed in the preceding paragraphs of this Subsection 5.1.2 (hereinafter “Excepted Waste”) shall be exclusively the responsibility of Tenant under all circumstances, and their disposal shall not become the obligation of Landlord for any reason. All such disposals of Excepted Waste shall comply with all applicable laws and shall be accomplished at times, in a manner and in a path approved in writing and in advance by Landlord. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that Excepted Waste will be disposed of separately from any trash that is removed by Landlord. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ also agrees that Tenant will not mix or place Excepted Waste in regular trash containers. Tenant shall be permitted, subject to Landlord’s review and approval, to install a two-hour rated waste storage area, such waste storage area to be no larger than 144 usable square feet, in the location shown on Exhibit L attached hereto. The parties agree that Tenant shall be liable in the event any harm or injury, of any type or nature whatsoever, is related to, incurred by, inflicted upon, or suffered by any individual including, but not limited to, Tenant, Landlord, or any of their respective agents, employees, guests, visitors, invitees or licensees, as the result of Tenant’s or any of its partner’s, subpartner’s and their respective officer’s, agent’s, servant’s, employee’s, invitee’s and independent contractor’s (collectively, “Tenant Parties”) failure to timely, thoroughly and completely dispose of Excepted Waste, the manner in which such disposal is accomplished, or coming into contact with, whether by touching, breathing, inhaling, or in any other manner ingesting or consuming such Excepted Waste, or by being exposed in any manner thereto and
Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s Agents and their respective agents, employees and contractors, (collectively, “Landlord Parties”) from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, expense and liability (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with or arising therefrom and save and hold other tenants, agents, employees, patients, visitors, invitees or licensees harmless against any damages, liability, claims, causes of action or judgments arising therefrom. Tenant shall be liable to and shall pay any injured party for all damages, costs or expenses, including attorney fees, arising out of any exposure, harm, injury, disease, contamination, or affliction suffered as the result of any Excepted Waste stored, generated, or disposed of by Tenant or in the Premises. Tenant shall provide to Landlord any written plan of Excepted Waste management Tenant prepares. Tenant shall contract with a reputable medical waste disposal company that shall be approved by Landlord and shall maintain all records regarding the disposal of Excepted Waste required by federal, state and local law or regulation and make such records available for Landlord review upon request.
public and common areas of the Property. Landlord shall install and maintain lighting on the Land along walkways leading to nearby subway stations. In addition, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the City of Somerville to install, or cause to be installed, emergency “call boxes” on the Land if reasonably necessary, based on actual circumstances in the vicinity of the Land, for safety purposes.
Landlord reserves the right to deny access to the Building and to interrupt the services of the HVAC, plumbing, electrical or other mechanical systems or facilities in the Building when necessary from time to time by reason of accident or emergency, or for repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements which in the reasonable judgment of Landlord are desirable or necessary, until such repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements shall have been completed. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of any such interruption and to schedule same outside of Normal Building Operating Hours, and Landlord shall give Tenant at least seven (7) Business Days’ notice if service is to be interrupted, except in cases of emergency, in which case Landlord shall give Tenant as much notice as possible under the circumstances.
If due to Landlord’s default or the negligent act or omission of Landlord or Landlord’s servants, agents, employees or contractors (i) an Essential Service (as defined below) is not provided to the Premises and Tenant is unable to use the Premises or any portion thereof are unusable by Tenant for a period of more than three (3) consecutive Business Days following the

Any notice from Tenant pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph shall expressly state that the failure of Landlord to cure any claimed default timely shall give rise to Tenant’s rights of rent abatement. If Tenant is unable to use the entire laboratory portion of the Premises due to Abatement Conditions that continue for more than two (2) consecutive months and as a result of such Abatement Conditions Tenant discontinues use of the entire laboratory portion of the Premises for more than two (2) consecutive months, Tenant shall be entitled, in addition to the abatement set forth above, to a credit against Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent on account of Taxes and Operating Costs that would otherwise be due for each day after such two (2) consecutive month abatement period until such time as the Essential Service is provided to the Premises and the Premises is rendered usable, which credit shall be applied against Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent on account of Taxes and Operating Costs first coming due hereunder. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of any Abatement Conditions and to keep Tenant reasonably informed as to the status of the restoration of Essential Services.

Tenant shall provide Landlord with advance written notice of any such planned security-related installation, repair, replacement, and removal; provided, however, Landlord acknowledges that it shall not have access to certain areas within the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for the reasonable restoration costs once the security system(s) have been removed. To the extent that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s security systems require integration with Landlord’s security systems, Landlord shall have the right to reasonably review and approve Tenant’s security systems integration plan.

the terms set forth in this Section) to the extent that parking spaces in the Parking Facility remain available for use by Tenant after meeting Landlord’s current and projected parking requirements for the Property as determined by Landlord in good faith.

Landlord further reserves the right to close the Parking Facility or portions thereof temporarily to the extent necessary for maintenance and repairs, provided that, except in the case of emergency Landlord shall provide Tenant with not less than fifteen (15) days’ prior notice of any such closure. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is not required to provide any security or security services for any of the Parking Facility, provided that Landlord shall provide reasonable security systems, services and/or protocols as Landlord deems appropriate, in its discretion, to the Parking Facility, the cost of which shall be included as an Operating Cost. Tenant shall indemnify and agrees to defend and hold Landlord and the Operator harmless from and against all claims, loss, cost, or damage arising out of the use by Tenant and its employees and invitees of the Parking Facility, except to the extent caused by negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agent or employees or the Operator.

Section require Landlord to indemnify or defend Tenant, its employees and Tenants agents and their employees against any demands, claims, causes of action, fines, penalties, damage, liabilities, judgments and expenses to the extent arising out of the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or its employees or agents or their employees.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may, without the need for Landlord’s consent, assign its interest in this Lease (a “Permitted Assignment”) to (i) any entity which shall be a successor to Tenant either by merger or consolidation (a “Merger”) or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets in either case provided the successor or purchaser shall have a tangible net worth, after giving effect to the transaction, of not less than $500,000,000.00 (the “Required Net Worth”) or (ii) any entity (an “Affiliate”) which is a direct or indirect subsidiary or parent (or a direct or indirect subsidiary of a parent) of the named Tenant set forth in Section 1.1, in either case of (i) or (ii) provided that (I) the principal purpose of such assignment is not
the acquisition of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s interest in this Lease (except if such assignment is made for a valid
intracorporate business purpose to an Affiliate) and is not made to circumvent the provisions of this Subsection 6.2.1. In connection with a Permitted Assignment pursuant to clause (ii) above, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of an assignment document which evidences the assignment to ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Affiliate and the Affiliate’s assumption of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Tenant shall also be permitted, without the need for Landlord’s consent, to enter into any sublease (a “Permitted Sublease”) with any Affiliate provided that such sublease shall expire upon any event pursuant to which the sublessee thereunder shall cease to be an Affiliate. Any assignment to an Affiliate shall provide that it may, at Landlord’s election, be terminated and deemed void if during the term of this Lease such assignee or any successor to the interest of Tenant hereunder shall cease to be an Affiliate. Tenant shall give Landlord notice of any Permitted Assignment or Permitted Sublease not later than ten (10) days after the date thereof and until Tenant shall have given Landlord such notice, Landlord shall have no obligation to any such subtenant nor shall any such assignee have any rights under this Lease.
In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall intend to enter into any sublease or assignment other than a Permitted Sublease or Permitted Assignment, Tenant shall, not later than thirty (30) days prior to the proposed commencement of such sublease or assignment, give Landlord notice of such intent, identifying the proposed subtenant or assignee, all of the terms and conditions of the proposed sublease or assignment and such information as Landlord may reasonably request regarding the financial condition and identity of the proposed subtenant or assignee.
Landlord shall not unreasonably condition or withhold its consent to any sublease or assignment, provided that, in addition to any other grounds for withholding of consent, Landlord may withhold its consent if in Landlord’s good faith judgment: (i) the proposed assignee or subtenant does not have a financial condition reasonably acceptable to Landlord; provided, however, that the financial condition may only be considered in connection with an assignment of this Lease following which Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. shall be dissolved or an assignment made in connection with Tenant’s sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of its assets and which is not a Permitted Assignment; (ii) the business and operations of the proposed assignee or subtenant are not of reasonably comparable quality to the business and operations being conducted by the majority of other tenants in the Building; (iii) the proposed assignee or subtenant is a business competitor of Landlord or is an affiliate of a business competitor of Landlord; (iv) the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant is, or the intended use of any part of the Premises, would be, in Landlord’s reasonable determination, inconsistent with first-class office and laboratory space or in violation of any exclusivity provisions granted to other tenants in the Building of which Landlord has given written notice to Tenant or any covenants, conditions or restrictions binding on Landlord or applicable to the Property; (v) at the time of the proposed assignment or subleasing Landlord is able to meet the space requirements of Tenant’s proposed assignee or subtenant by leasing available space in the Building to such person or entity on substantially the same terms and conditions as the proposed sublease and either (a) the proposed assignee or subtenant is a tenant or other occupant of the Building, or (b) the proposed assignee or subtenant is an entity, or is affiliated with any entity, which shall have entered into negotiation with Landlord for space in the Building within the preceding six (6) months; or (vi) any such sublease shall result in the Premises being occupied by more than four
(4) parties (including Tenant but excluding any occupants or uses under a Shared Space Arrangement) at any one time, which such limitation shall increase on a proportional basis with any increases to the Premises.
If this Lease is assigned or if the Premises or any part thereof are sublet (or occupied by any party other than Tenant and its employees) Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Subsection 6.2.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Lease. All assignees shall have all of the rights, options and privileges of Tenant under the Lease. All assignees and subtenants shall have the appurtenant rights of Tenant under the Lease, including parking, use of the common areas and Building directory signage.
Any sublease of all or any portion of the Premises shall provide that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which this Lease is or shall be subject or subordinate, that other than the payment of Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent due pursuant to Sections 4.1, 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 or any obligation relating solely to those portions of the Premises which are not part of the subleased premises, the subtenant shall comply with and be bound by all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder that are applicable to the portions of the Premises which are part of the subleased premises, that unless Landlord waives such prohibition, the subtenant may not enter into any sub-sublease, sublease assignment, license or any other agreement granting any right of occupancy of any portion of the subleased premises; and that Landlord shall be an express beneficiary of any such obligations, and that in the event of termination of this Lease or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor any mortgagee of the Property, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Lease if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (a) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (b) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, or (c) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease unless consented to by Landlord and such mortgagee or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, (d) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Premises or any portion thereof, (e) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually received by Landlord, (f) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits unless specifically agreed to by Landlord and such mortgagee, (g) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of subtenant or (h) be required to remove any person occupying the Premises or any part thereof; and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of its approval or disapproval of any proposed sublease or assignment, which such notice shall include a reasonable detailed explanation of any disapproval, within ten (10) Business Days after ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s written request of Landlord’s approval, subject to extension for review by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s lender, if required, Landlord agreeing to use reasonable efforts to cause the Landlord’s lender to respond in as timely a manner as possible. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Subsection 6.2.1 and any breach of any obligation of any subtenant of Tenant shall be attributable to Tenant and constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant.
No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of the Tenant named in Section 1.1, and any immediate or remote successor in interest, and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the obligation to obtain the Landlord’s written approval in the case of any other subletting or assignment. The joint and several liability of Tenant named herein and any immediate and remote successor in interest (by assignment or otherwise) for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent, and the timely performance of all non-monetary obligations on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed, shall not in any way be discharged, released or impaired by any (a) agreement which modifies any of the rights or obligations of the parties under this Lease,
(b) stipulation which extends the time within which an obligation under this Lease is to be performed, (c) waiver of the performance of an obligation required under this Lease, or (d) failure to enforce any of the obligations set forth in this Lease. No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect the Permitted Uses. Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s interest in this Lease in contravention of this Subsection 6.2.1 shall be voidable at
Landlord’s option. Tenant shall not occupy any space in the Building (by assignment, sublease or otherwise) other than the Premises.
If the rent and other sums (including, without limitation, all monetary payments plus the reasonable value of any services performed or any other thing of value given by any assignee or subtenant in consideration of such assignment or sublease), either initially or over the term of any assignment or sublease (other than a Permitted Assignment or Permitted Sublease), payable by such assignee or subtenant shall exceed the Annual Fixed Rent plus Additional Rent called for hereunder (or in the case of a sublease of a portion of the Premises, shall exceed the Annual Fixed Rent plus Additional Rent attributable to the space so sublet), Tenant shall pay fifty percent (50%) of such excess to Landlord, as Additional Rent, payable monthly at the time for payment of Annual Fixed Rent, provided that in computing the amount of any such excess the amortized portion of the following “Transfer Expenses” paid by Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease may first be deducted from the monthly amount of any such excess: (i) the cost of alterations or improvements made by Tenant to the Premises in order to consummate an assignment or to the portion of Premises that is subleased in order to consummate a sublease,
(ii) reasonable brokerage commissions or fees, and (iii) reasonable attorney’s fees. Any such Transfer Expenses shall be amortized in equal monthly installments over the term of the assignment or sublease and shall be verified by Tenant by written documentation reasonably satisfactory to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the date of delivery of possession to the assignee or sublessee. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to abrogate the provisions of
this Subsection 6.2.1 and Landlord’s acceptance of any sums pursuant to this paragraph shall not be deemed a granting of consent to any assignment of the Lease or sublease of all or any portion of the Premises.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant may from time to time enter into license agreements (each, a “Shared Space Arrangement”) with Tenant’s agents, contractors, consultants or affiliates pursuant to which such agents, contractors, consultants or affiliates (including, without limitation, special purpose vehicles and collaboration with university and/or hospital researchers, regardless of whether or not the collaboration is funded by standalone investors) may occupy up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises Rentable Area as “Shared Space Area”, and such license agreements shall not require Landlord’s consent under this Subsection 6.2.1; provided, however, that prior to the effective date of each
such Shared Space Arrangement, Tenant and each licensee shall be required to execute
Landlord’s reasonable form of acknowledgment, attached hereto as Exhibit I, pursuant to which Tenant and the licensee acknowledge and agree that: (i) the terms of the Shared Space Arrangement are subject and subordinate to the terms of this Lease, (ii) if this Lease terminates, then the Shared Space Arrangement shall terminate concurrently therewith, and (iii) the waivers and releases between Landlord and Tenant shall also apply as between Landlord and licensee.
Tenant shall be fully responsible for the conduct of such entities within the Shared Space Area, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s indemnification obligations set forth in this Lease shall apply with respect to the conduct of such parties within the Shared Space Area.

Landlord reserves the right, upon reasonable notice to Tenant, to require Tenant to remove ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Sign, temporarily, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, if necessary in connection with any repairs, renovations, improvements or additions to the Building, provided that Landlord shall minimize, to the extent practical, the duration of any period during which ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Sign shall need to be removed. Prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease, and if at any time any of the Sign Conditions shall no longer prevail, Tenant shall remove Tenant’s Sign (and all associated hardware) from the Building and shall restore the affected area to the condition existing prior to the installation of Tenant’s Sign.
Tenant agrees that if it shall generate, store, release, spill, dispose of or transfer to the Premises or Property any Hazardous Materials, it shall forthwith remove the same, at its sole cost and expense, in the manner provided by all applicable Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), regardless of when such Hazardous Materials shall be discovered. Furthermore, Tenant shall pay any fines, penalties or other assessments imposed by any governmental agency with respect to any such Hazardous Materials and shall forthwith repair and restore any portion of the Premises or Property which it shall disturb in so removing any such Hazardous Materials to the condition which existed prior to Tenant’s disturbance thereof.
▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to deliver promptly to Landlord any notices, orders or similar documents received from any governmental agency or official concerning any violation of any Environmental Laws or with respect to any Hazardous Materials affecting the Premises or Property. In addition, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of receipt, accurately complete any questionnaires from Landlord or other informational requests relating to Tenant’s use of the Premises and, in particular, to Tenant’s use, generation, storage and/or disposal of Hazardous Materials at, to, or from the Premises.
Tenant shall indemnify, defend (by counsel satisfactory to Landlord), protect, and hold Landlord free and harmless from and against any and all claims, or threatened claims, including without limitation, claims for death of or injury to any person or damage to any property, actions, administrative proceedings, whether formal or informal, judgments, damages, punitive damages, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs, taxes, assessments, forfeitures, losses, expenses, attorneys’ fees and expenses, consultant fees, and expert fees that arise from or are caused in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by (i) Tenant’s use, analysis, storage, transportation, disposal, release, threatened release, discharge or generation of Hazardous Materials to, in, on, under, about or from the Premises, or (ii) Tenant’s failure to comply with any Environmental Laws. Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall include, without limitation, and whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, all costs (including, without limitation, capital, operating and maintenance costs) incurred in connection with any investigation or monitoring of site conditions, repair, cleanup, containment, remedial, removal or restoration work, or detoxification or decontamination of the Premises, and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial action or other required plans in connection therewith. For purposes of this Section 6.2.8, any acts or omissions of Tenant, or its subtenants or assignees or its or their employees, agents, or contractors (whether or not they are negligent, intentional, willful or unlawful) shall be attributable to Tenant.
The term “Hazardous Materials” shall mean and include any oils, petroleum products, asbestos, radioactive, biological, medical or infectious wastes or materials, and any other toxic or hazardous wastes, materials and substances which are defined, determined or identified as such in any Environmental Laws, or in any judicial or administrative interpretation of Environmental Laws.
The term “Environmental Laws” shall mean any and all federal, state and municipal statutes, laws, regulations, ordinances, rules, judgments, orders, decrees, codes, plans, injunctions, permits, concessions, grants, franchises, licenses, agreements or other governmental restrictions relating to the environment or to emissions, discharges or releases of pollutants, contaminants, petroleum or petroleum products, medical, biological, infectious, toxic or hazardous substances or wastes into the environment including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, ground water or land, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of pollutants, contaminants, petroleum or petroleum products, medical, biological, infectious, toxic or hazardous substances or wastes or the cleanup or other remediation thereof.
(10) days following ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s request, to be made if required by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s lender or prospective lender, any prospective purchaser of the Building or any governmental authority, or if Landlord has a reasonable basis to believe Tenant is not operating in compliance with such approvals or permits or otherwise not in compliance with Environmental Laws, a list of any and
all approvals or permits from governmental authorities required in connection with the presence of such Hazardous Material at the Premises (collectively, “Hazardous Materials Documents”). Tenant shall deliver to Landlord updated Hazardous Materials Documents (a) within thirty (30) days after receipt of a request therefor from Landlord, but not more often than once per year, and
(b) if there are any material increases to the amounts or changes to the types of Hazardous Materials used in connection with Tenant’s business in the Premises. For each type of Hazardous Material listed, the Hazardous Materials Documents shall include (t) the chemical name, (u) the material state (e.g., solid, liquid, gas or cryogen), (v) the concentration, (w) the storage amount and storage condition (e.g., in cabinets or not in cabinets), (x) the use amount and use condition (e.g., open use or closed use), (y) the location (e.g., room number or other identification) and (z) if known, the chemical abstract service number. Notwithstanding anything in this Subsection 6.2.9 to the contrary, Tenant shall not be required to provide Landlord with any Hazardous Materials Documents to the extent containing information of a proprietary nature. Landlord shall keep the Hazardous Materials Documents confidential; provided, however, Landlord may, at Landlord’s expense, cause the Hazardous Materials Documents to be reviewed by a person or firm qualified to analyze Hazardous Materials to confirm compliance with the provisions of this Lease and with applicable laws, so long as Landlord notifies such person or firm of the confidential nature of the Hazardous Materials Document and such person or firm agrees, in writing and subject to applicable law, to keep such information confidential. In the event that a review of the Hazardous Materials Documents indicates non-compliance with this Lease or applicable laws, Tenant shall, at its expense, diligently take steps to bring its storage and use of Hazardous Materials into compliance. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, prior to installation thereof, correct and complete copies of plans relating to the installation of any storage tanks to be installed in, on, under or about the Property by Tenant (provided that installation of storage tanks shall only be permitted after Landlord has given Tenant its written consent to do so, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion) and closure plans or any other documents required by any and all governmental authorities for any storage tanks installed in, on, under or about the Property by a Tenant for the closure of any such storage tanks.
(60) days) prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall provide Landlord with written evidence of all appropriate governmental releases obtained by Tenant in accordance with applicable laws, including laws pertaining to the surrender of the Premises. Tenant’s obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.
Landlord’s reasonable judgment, emanate from the Premises. Any work Tenant performs under this Section shall constitute Alterations (as that term is defined in Exhibit C attached hereto).
Landlord’s approval of any Alterations or other tenant improvements or construction of any work to be performed by Landlord in the Premises shall not preclude Landlord from reasonably requiring additional measures to eliminate odors, fumes and other adverse impacts of Tenant’s exhaust stream (as Landlord may designate in Landlord’s reasonable discretion). Tenant shall install additional equipment as Landlord reasonably requires from time to time under the preceding sentence. Such installations shall constitute Alterations.
(30) days (or such longer period as may be reasonably required provided Tenant is diligently pursuing such installation) after Landlord’s demand made at any time, then Landlord may, without limiting Landlord’s other rights and remedies, require Tenant to cease and suspend any operations in the Premises that, in Landlord’s reasonable determination, cause odors or fumes. For example, if Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant’s production of a certain type of product causes odors or fumes, and Tenant does not install satisfactory odor control equipment within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s request or such longer period as may be reasonably required provided Tenant is diligently pursuing such installation, then Landlord may require Tenant to stop producing such type of product in the Premises unless and until Tenant has installed odor control equipment reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, during the Term, Tenant shall be entitled to Tenant’s pro rata share of the maximum allowable chemical quantities (both in use and in storage) permitted by MAQ Codes (defined below) for the second (2nd) floor of the Building, which maximum allowable chemical quantities for the entire second (2nd) floor is 360 liquid gallons, subject to Tenant maintaining all licenses, permits and approvals required therefor, which pro rata share, as of the Date of this Lease, is 67% of the maximum allowable chemical quantities. As used herein, “MAQ Codes” shall mean 780 CMR – Massachusetts State Building Code 9th Edition, 527 CMR – Massachusetts Comprehensive Fire Safety Code, and NEPA 45 – Standard on Fire Protection for Laboratories Using Chemicals, 2011 Edition.
Article 7 Casualty or Taking
thereof, shall be taken by any public authority or for any public use (other than temporarily for a
period of less than one hundred eighty (180) days) or shall be condemned by the action of any public authority, then the term of this Lease may be terminated at the election of Landlord by giving written notice thereof to Tenant within one hundred (120) days after the date of the taking or condemnation. In the event that the Premises or the Property, or any material part thereof shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or casualty, then within a reasonable period of time of casualty, not to exceed ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such casualty damage, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant the written estimate (as reasonably estimated by an architect or general contractor selected by Landlord) of the time to substantially complete the restoration of the Premises and the Property to the substantially the same as existed immediately prior to such damage (subject to any modification required by then current laws, rules, regulations and ordinances and excluding any improvements to the Premises made by or on behalf of Tenant after the Commencement Date) (the “Restoration Estimate”). If the Restoration Estimate provides that such restoration period is greater than one hundred eighty (180) days, then the term of this Lease may be terminated at the election of Landlord. Such election, which may be made notwithstanding the fact that Landlord’s entire interest may have been divested, shall be made by the giving of notice by Landlord to Tenant (“Landlord’s Restoration Notice”) not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the taking or casualty.
In the event that all or any material portion of the Premises is, in ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s sole judgement, made unusable for the conduct of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s business due to a taking or condemnation by any public authority (other than temporarily for a period of less than one hundred eighty (180) days), then the term of this Lease may be terminated at the election of Tenant by giving written notice thereof to Landlord within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the taking or condemnation. In the event that all or any material part of the Premises shall be destroyed or damaged or shall be made inaccessible or unusable for the conduct of Tenant’s business, in
Tenant’s sole judgement, by fire or other casualty (and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has not elected to terminate the term of this Lease pursuant to the preceding paragraph), and, if (a) the Restoration Estimate indicates that the time required to substantially complete such restoration work shall exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days from the occurrence of such casualty damage or the number of days which as of the date of the casualty constitutes more than half of the then remainder of the term, whichever period is shorter, or (b) Landlord’s Restoration Notice indicates that Landlord shall not restore the Premises as provided above, then Tenant may elect to terminate the term of this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord not later forty-five (45) days after the date on which Landlord delivers Landlord’s Restoration Notice to Tenant. Tenant may also elect to terminate the term of this Lease by written notice to Landlord if Landlord shall not have caused the restoration work to have been substantially completed on or before the date thirty (30) days after the date identified in the Restoration Estimate, subject to extension for Force Majeure, whereupon the term of this Lease shall terminate thirty (30) days following the date of such notice, unless Landlord substantially completes such restoration work with such thirty (30) day period, in which case such notice of termination shall be a nullity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to terminate the term of this Lease due to a fire or other casualty if the cause thereof was due to the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Tenant or any subtenant of Tenant or any agent or employee of Tenant or its subtenant(s).
Rent reserved, according to the nature and extent of the damages sustained by the Premises, shall be suspended or abated until the Premises (excluding any improvements to the Premises made at Tenant’s expense), or what may remain thereof, shall be put by Landlord in proper condition for use, which Landlord covenants to do with reasonable diligence to the extent permitted by the net proceeds of insurance recovered or damages awarded for such destruction, taking, or condemnation and subject to zoning and building laws or ordinances then in existence. Landlord shall keep Tenant reasonably informed as to the status of such restoration work. “Net proceeds of insurance recovered or damages awarded” refers to the gross amount of such insurance or damages actually made available to Landlord (and not retained by any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee) less the reasonable expenses of Landlord incurred in connection with the collection of the same, including without limitation, fees and expenses for legal and appraisal services.
Article 8 Defaults
Annual Fixed Rent or regularly scheduled payments of Additional Rent under this Lease when due, or if Tenant shall default in its obligations to pay any invoice for Additional Rent or any other charges or amounts under this Lease when due and if any such default shall continue for seven (7) days after notice from Landlord designating such default, or (II) shall default in complying with its obligations under Sections 4.4 or 6.1.11 of this Lease and if any such default shall continue for five (5) days after notice from Landlord designating such default, or (III) if as promptly as possible but in any event within thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord to Tenant specifying any default or defaults other than those set forth in clauses (I) or (II) Tenant has not cured the default or defaults so specified, or if such default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within thirty (30) days using diligent efforts, if Tenant does not commence the curing of such default within such thirty-day period and thereafter diligently and continuously prosecute such cure to completion within such additional time as may be necessary, but in no event to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of Landlord’s notice to Tenant specifying the default (which 90-day period shall be extended on a day for day basis for each day that Tenant’s cure is delayed solely due to Force Majeure events or Landlord-cause delays); or (b) if any assignment shall be made by Tenant for the benefit of creditors; or (c) if Tenant’s leasehold interest shall be taken on execution; or (d) if a lien or other involuntary encumbrance shall be filed against Tenant’s leasehold interest or Tenant’s other property, including said leasehold interest, and shall not be discharged within ten (10) days thereafter; or (e) if a petition shall be filed by Tenant for liquidation, or for reorganization or an arrangement under any provision of
any bankruptcy law or code as then in force and effect; or (f) if an involuntary petition under any of the provisions of any bankruptcy law or code shall be filed against Tenant and such involuntary petition shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days thereafter; or (g) if a custodian or similar agent shall be authorized or appointed to take charge of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant; or (h) if Tenant dissolves or shall be dissolved or shall liquidate or shall adopt any plan or commence any proceeding, the result of which is intended to include dissolution or liquidation; or (i) if any order shall be entered in any proceeding by or against Tenant decreeing or permitting the dissolution of Tenant or the winding up of its affairs; or (j) if Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of rent when due, Tenant shall cure such default within the grace period provided in clause (a) (I) above (or with Landlord’s approval after the expiration of such grace period) and Tenant shall, within the next year following the date such initial defaulted payment was first due, fail more than once to pay any installment of Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent when due, then, and in any of such cases indicated in clauses (a) through (j) hereof
(collectively and individually, a “Default of Tenant”), Landlord may, in addition to and not in derogation of any remedies for any preceding breach of covenant, immediately or at any time thereafter (x) give notice to Tenant terminating this Lease and/or the term hereof, which notice shall specify the date of such termination, whereupon on the date so specified, the term of this Lease and all of Tenant’s rights and privileges under this Lease shall expire and terminate or (y) without terminating this Lease terminate Tenant's right of possession and/or occupancy and reenter and take possession of the Premises or any part thereof, without notice and expel Tenant and any party claiming under Tenant and remove any of their effects, without being liable on account thereof, whether in trespass or breach or covenant or otherwise, (and no such reentry or taking possession shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless Landlord shall affirm such election by notice expressly to such effect), but in either case Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.
reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, attorneys’ fees and expenses, advertising costs, administration expenses, alteration costs, the value of any tenant inducements (including but without limitation free rent, moving costs, and contributions toward leasehold improvements) and any other expenses incurred in preparation for such reletting. Tenant shall pay such damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other charges would have been payable hereunder if the term of this Lease had not been so terminated.
In the event of any reentry or retaking of possession of the Premises and/or termination of Tenant's right of possession and/or occupancy of the Premises, as applicable, without termination of this Lease, pursuant to Section 8.1, Tenant shall pay the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges payable hereunder up to the time of such reentry or retaking of possession and/or termination. Thereafter, whether or not the Premises shall have been re-let, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and
other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the term of this Lease notwithstanding any such reentry, retaking of possession or termination, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Premises, after deducting all expenses in connection with such
reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, attorneys’ fees and expenses, advertising costs, administration expenses, alteration costs, the value of any tenant inducements (including but without limitation free rent, moving costs, and contributions toward leasehold improvements) and any other expenses incurred in preparation for such reletting. Tenant shall pay such damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other charges are payable hereunder.
At any time after any such termination, reentry or retaking of possession, in lieu of recovering damages pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraphs with respect to any period after the date of demand therefor, at Landlord’s election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord immediately the amount, if any, by which (A) the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such demand to the end of what would be the then unexpired term of this Lease had such termination not occurred (or in the case of reentry or retaking of possession of the Premises by Landlord or a termination of Tenant’s right of possession and/or occupancy of the Premises, to the end of the term of this Lease), shall exceed (B) the then fair rental value of the Premises for the same period, reduced to amortize over such period all costs or expenses which Landlord would incur to obtain such fair market rent. In calculating any excess amount under the prior sentence, the amounts under (A) and (B) of the prior sentence shall be first discounted to their net present value using a discount rate equal to eight percent (8%).
Nothing contained in this Lease shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency by reason of the termination of this Lease, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.
In case of any Default of Tenant, re-entry, expiration and repossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (i) relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord, Tenant (Tenant hereby irrevocably appointing Landlord its attorney in fact to execute any instrument of reletting on behalf of Tenant) or otherwise (as Landlord may elect), for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option be equal to or less than or exceed the
period the balance of the term of this Lease (or the balance of the term of this Lease if it shall not have been terminated) and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same and (ii) may make such commercially reasonable alterations and repairs in the Premises as Landlord in its reasonable discretion considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Premises; and the making of such alterations and repairs shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Subject to Landlord’s obligations in Subsection 8.2.21 below, Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for failure to relet the Premises, or, in the event that the Premises are relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Landlord hereby waives, and Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for, any claim for special or consequential losses or damages (excluding, for purposes of clarity, damages to which Landlord may be entitled under Section 8.2) arising out of any breach of this Lease by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, except for any damages to which Landlord may be entitled under Section 8.5 and provided that the foregoing waiver shall not apply to any violation by Tenant of Environmental Laws or any claims asserted by a third party for which Landlord may be liable as a result, in whole or part, of conduct constituting a breach by Tenant of any of the terms of this Lease.
maximum rate allowed by law. “Prime Rate” shall mean the annual floating rate of interest, determined daily and expressed as a percentage from time to time announced by Bank of America as its “prime” or “base” rate, so-called, or if at any time Bank of America ceases to announce such a rate, as announced by the largest national or state-chartered banking institution then having an office in the City of Boston and announcing such a rate. If at any time neither Bank of America nor the largest national or state-chartered banking institution having an office in the City of Boston is announcing such a floating rate, “Prime Rate” shall mean a rate of interest, determined daily, which is two hundred basis points above the yield of 90-day U.S. Treasury Bills.
entire Premises and be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rental rate equal 125% of the sum of Annual Fixed Rent plus Additional Rent on account of Operating Costs and Taxes in effect immediately prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term (prorated on a daily basis) for the first thirty (30) days of any such holding over and 150% of the sum of Annual Fixed Rent plus Additional Rent on account of Operating Costs and Taxes in effect immediately prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term (prorated on a daily basis) thereafter.
Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages, direct and/or consequential (foreseeable and unforeseeable), sustained by reason of any such holding over, provided that Tenant shall not be liable for consequential damages unless Tenant shall hold over for more than thirty (30) days. Otherwise, all of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Tenant applicable during the term of this Lease shall apply and be performed by Tenant during such period of holding over as if such period were part of the term of this Lease.
Article 9 Rights of Holders
its obligations under Section 9.3, this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or master lease, and all renewals, extensions, modifications and replacements thereof, and to all mortgages, which may now or hereafter affect the Building or the Property and/or any such lease, whether or not such mortgages shall also cover other lands and/or buildings and/or leases, to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions
of such leases and such mortgages and all consolidations of such mortgages. This Section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Tenant that Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination provided Landlord shall have performed its obligations under Section 9.3. Any lease to which this Lease is subject and subordinate is herein called “Superior Lease” and the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest, at the time referred to, is herein called “Superior Lessor”; and any mortgage to which this Lease is subject and subordinate, is herein called “Superior Mortgage” and the holder of a Superior Mortgage is herein called “Superior Mortgagee”.
9.1 to the contrary, any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee may, at its option, subordinate the Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage of which it is the lessor or holder to this Lease by giving Tenant ten (10) days prior written notice of such election, whereupon this Lease shall, irrespective of dates of execution, delivery and recording, be superior to such Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage and no other documentation shall be necessary to effect such change.
Article 10 Miscellaneous Provisions

that upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s paying the rent and performing and observing the agreements, conditions and other provisions on its part to be performed and observed, Tenant shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises during the term hereof without any manner of hindrance or molestation from Landlord or anyone claiming under Landlord, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease; provided, however, Landlord reserves the right at any time and from
time to time, without the same constituting breach of Landlord’s covenant of quiet enjoyment or an actual or constructive eviction, and without Landlord incurring any liability to Tenant or otherwise affecting Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, to make such changes, alterations, improvements, repairs or replacements in or to the interior and exterior of the Building (including the Premises) and the fixtures and equipment thereof, and in or to the Property, or properties adjacent thereto, as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable, and to change (provided that there be no unreasonable obstruction of the right of access to the Premises by Tenant and that Landlord use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize, to the extent practical, any interference with the conduct of business at the Premises) the arrangement and/or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, corridors, elevators, or other common areas of the Building and Property.
Without incurring any liability to Tenant, Landlord may permit access to the Premises and open the same, whether or not Tenant shall be present, upon any demand of any receiver, trustee, assignee for the benefit of creditors, sheriff, marshal or court officer Landlord reasonably believes is entitled to such access for the purpose of taking possession of, or removing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s property or for any other lawful purpose (but this provision and any action by Landlord hereunder shall not be deemed a recognition by Landlord that the person or official making such demand has any right or interest in or to this Lease, or in or to the Premises), or upon demand of any representative of the fire, police, building, sanitation or other department of the city, state or federal governments.
Tenant acknowledges that the terms under which the Landlord has leased the Premises to Tenant (including, without limitation, the rental rate(s), term and other financial and business terms), constitute confidential information of Landlord (“Confidential Information”). Tenant covenants and agrees to keep the Confidential Information confidential and not to disclose the same to third parties; provided, however, that such Confidential Information may be disclosed by Tenant to those of its officers, employees, attorneys, accountants, lenders and financial advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) who need to know such information in connection with
▇▇▇▇▇▇’s use and occupancy of the Premises and for financial reporting and credit related activities. Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any press release or other similar public statement regarding this Lease without the prior approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant furthermore agrees to inform its Representatives of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and to use all reasonable efforts to cause each Representative to treat such Confidential Information confidentially and in accordance with the terms of this paragraph.
made to the holder of a mortgage on property which includes the Premises, shall never be treated as an assumption by such holder of any of the obligations of Landlord hereunder unless such holder shall, by notice sent to Tenant, specifically otherwise elect and that, except as aforesaid, such holder shall be treated as having assumed Landlord’s obligations hereunder (subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 9.1) only upon foreclosure of such holder’s mortgage and the taking of possession of the Premises.
The term “Landlord”, so far as covenants or obligations to be performed by Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners at the time in question of Landlord’s interest in the Property, and in the event of any transfer or transfers of such title to said property, Landlord (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be concurrently freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, without any further instrument or agreement, of all liability with respect to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed, it being intended hereby that the covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord, shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their respective period of ownership of such interest in the Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the acquisition of Landlord’s interest in the Property by a purchaser which, simultaneously therewith, leases Landlord’s entire interest in the Property back to Landlord or the seller thereof be treated as an assumption by operation of
law or otherwise, of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s obligations hereunder. Tenant shall look solely to such seller-lessee, and its successors from time to time in title, for performance of Landlord’s obligations hereunder. The seller-lessee, and its successors in title, shall be the Landlord hereunder unless and until such purchaser expressly assumes in writing the Landlord’s obligations hereunder.
Tenant shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease against any of Landlord’s assets other than Landlord’s interest in the Property, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s interest in the rents payable by tenants of the Building, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s interest in the proceeds of any insurance maintained by Landlord or Tenant with respect to the Property or the Premises, and
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s interest in the proceeds from the sale of the Property, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability or claim against Landlord under this Lease, it being specifically agreed that in no event whatsoever shall Landlord ever be personally liable for any such liability. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ furthermore agrees that no trustee, officer, director, general or limited partner, member, shareholder, beneficiary, employee or agent of Landlord (including any person or entity from time to time engaged to supervise and/or manage the operation of Landlord) shall be held to any liability, jointly or severally, for any debt, claim, demand, judgment, decree, liability or obligation of any kind (in tort, contract or otherwise) of, against or with respect to Landlord or arising out of any action taken or omitted for or on behalf of Landlord.
(30) days within which to cure such breach or default if such breach or default cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary, if within such thirty (30) days any such holder or lessor has commenced and is diligently pursuing the remedies necessary to
cure such breach or default (including but not limited to commencement of foreclosure proceedings, if necessary to effect such cure).
Landlord’s defaults by such holder or ground lessor shall be treated as performance by Landlord.
performed by Tenant shall be construed to be both an independent covenant and a condition and time is of the essence with respect to the exercise of any of Tenant’s rights, and the performance of any and all of Tenant’s obligations, under this Lease. The reference contained to successors and assigns of Tenant is not intended to constitute a consent to assignment by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. Except as otherwise set forth in this Lease, any obligations of Tenant (including, without limitation, rental and other monetary obligations, repair and maintenance obligations and obligations to indemnify Landlord), shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for any expense incurred by Landlord in curing Tenant’s failure to satisfy any such obligation (notwithstanding the fact that such cure might be effected by Landlord following the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease).
Tenant’s Roof Equipment shall be equal to Tenant’s Percentage of the maximum rentable area of the penthouse, which is ninety-six (96) rentable square feet; and provided further that the
location of Tenant’s Roof Equipment (i.e., on the roof or in the penthouse) shall be reasonably determined by Landlord in cooperation with Tenant. Tenant also shall have the right to run cables and lines (“Lines”) from its Roof Equipment to the Premises using the common shafts, chases, risers and conduits of the Building intended for such purpose to the extent that the same may be available after meeting Landlord’s requirements for the Building. Landlord makes no representations, express or implied, that the roof of the Building is suitable for the installation or operation of any Roof Equipment. There shall be no additional charge to Tenant in connection with its use of space on the roof of the Building, but Tenant shall pay Annual Fixed Rent for so much of the penthouse space as Tenant elects to use at a rate per rentable square foot of such penthouse space per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the market rental rate at which Landlord is then offering penthouse space to third parties or (ii) the Annual Fixed Rent per rentable square foot of penthouse space per annum being paid by other tenants of the Building. If Tenant elects to install any equipment in the penthouse area, Tenant shall notify Landlord of the amount of space required not later than the third (3rd) anniversary of the Commencement Date, time being of the essence, and promptly following receipt of such notice the parties shall execute an amendment to this Lease providing for the addition of such penthouse space to the Premises (it being agreed that after the third (3rd) anniversary of the Commencement Date, Tenant shall be entitled to lease only such space as may then be available in the penthouse, and such space may or may not be equal to Tenant’s Percentage of the maximum rentable area of the penthouse).
All Roof Equipment shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which, subject to Landlord’s customary practices and procedures, shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The design and installation of Tenant’s Roof Equipment shall be performed in accordance with Subsection 6.2.5 and Exhibit C, any requirements of Landlord’s insurance carrier(s), and all other applicable provisions of this Lease as if the area where the Roof Equipment is located were part of the Premises. Tenant agrees that Landlord may require Tenant to reasonably screen its Roof Equipment.
Landlord shall have no obligation to furnish any utilities or services to the Roof Equipment or to make any alterations, repairs or replacements to any portion of the Building or Property in order to accommodate the installation or operation of any Roof Equipment. All utilities required to operate the Roof Equipment shall be separately metered and Tenant shall pay the costs of such utilities, as measured by such meter(s) to Landlord, as Additional Rent, or directly to the utility supplier. Tenant agrees that it shall be required, at is sole cost and expense, to perform any roof reinforcement reasonably required by Landlord to accommodate the weight of any Roof Equipment on the Building roof. Under no circumstances shall Tenant make any roof penetrations other than as expressly approved by Landlord in writing in advance.
During the term, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, perform all repairs and maintenance to the Roof Equipment and Lines necessary to keep the same in good working order, appearance and condition, reasonable use and wear thereof excepted, and Tenant shall promptly repair any damage to the Building or Property caused by the installation or operation of the Roof Equipment or Lines. Tenant shall operate its Roof Equipment in compliance with all applicable laws, codes and regulations. Tenant shall not relocate or modify any of the Roof Equipment or Lines without, in each instance, obtaining Landlord’s prior written approval to such relocation or modification.
Any antennae installed by Tenant on the Building roof shall provide communications for Tenant only, and Tenant shall not permit any other person or firm to make use thereof.
Unless Landlord shall agree otherwise in writing, Tenant shall, prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease, remove all of its Roof Equipment and all Lines, repair any damage caused by such removal, and restore the portion of the roof where the Roof Equipment was installed to a condition substantially the same as existed prior to the installation of the Roof Equipment. The provisions of Subsection 6.1.9 shall apply to any area affected hereby as if it were part of the Premises.
Landlord reserves the right, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ notice to Tenant, except in the event of an emergency, but at Landlord’s cost, to require Tenant to relocate all or any of the Roof Equipment to another portion of the roof reasonably designated by if such relocation is necessary for Landlord to perform any repairs, renovations, improvements or additions to the Building or Property. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to coordinate any such relocation with Tenant.
Tenant shall be entitled to obtain access to the roof both during and outside of Normal Building Operating Hours (as defined in the Rules and Regulations) for the purpose of servicing Tenant’s Roof Equipment, but only if (i) Tenant shall have given Landlord reasonable advance
notice of the need therefor, and (ii) Tenant is accompanied by an authorized representative of
Landlord during such access. Any such access shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable security measures and, in the event access is required before or after Normal Building Operating Hours, Landlord may require Tenant to pay, as Additional Rent, the reasonable costs incurred by Landlord to provide such access to Tenant.
Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to not allow any antennae or other Roof Equipment installed by Tenant to interfere with any equipment installed or operating in or from the Building as of the date Tenant commences operation of, or shall subsequently modify, such Roof
Equipment. If Landlord determines that any of Tenant’s Roof Equipment materially interferes any such pre-existing equipment, Landlord may require Tenant to discontinue operation of such Roof Equipment until such time as it may be operated without causing such interference.
