  • Unavoidable Delays Delays due to acts of God, acts of public agencies, labor disputes, strikes, fires, freight embargoes, inability (despite the exercise of due diligence) to obtain supplies, materials, fuels or permits, or other causes or contingencies (excluding financial inability) beyond the reasonable control of Landlord or Tenant, as applicable. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Tenant with prompt notice of any Unavoidable Delays.

  • Unavoidable Delay When construction is impeded as a result of strikes, lockouts, acts of God or other factors beyond the control, and ability to remedy, of the Developer.

  • Excusable Delays Except with respect to defaults of subproviders, the Engineer shall not be in default by reason of any failure in performance of this contract in accordance with its terms (including any failure to progress in the performance of the work) if such failure arises out of causes beyond the control and without the default or negligence of the Engineer. Such causes may include, but are not restricted to, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe weather.

  • Tenant Delays A "Tenant Delay” shall be defined as any delay in the design, permitting or performance of the Base Building Work to the extent that such delay is actually caused by any act or, where there is a duty to act under this Lease, any failure to act by Tenant or Tenant's contractors, architects, engineers, or anyone else engaged by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvement Work as set forth in this Article III (including, without limitation, any delays resulting from the Approved Tenant Finishes under Section 3.l(C) above) and disclosed to Tenant as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any delays in the completion of the Base Building Work caused by Tenant’s use of non-union labor constitute a Tenant Delay hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no event shall be deemed a Tenant Delay unless and until Landlord has given Tenant written notice (the "Tenant Delay Notice") advising Tenant: (x) that a Tenant Delay is occurring and setting forth Landlord's good faith estimate as to the likely length of such Tenant Delay; (y) of the basis on which Landlord has determined that a Tenant Delay is occurring; and (z) the actions which Landlord believes that Tenant must take to eliminate such Tenant Delay. No event shall be deemed to be a Tenant Delay unless and until Tenant has failed to rectify the situation causing the Tenant Delay within forty-eight (48) hours after Tenant's receipt of the Tenant Delay Notice (which for the purposes of determining receipt may be delivered by hand to Tenant's Construction Representative, with copies to follow to Tenant at the notice address set forth in Section 1.2 of this Lease within five (5) days thereafter); provided, however, that if Tenant shall fail to eliminate the delay within the aforesaid 48-hour period, then the 48-hour cure period shall be included in the period of time charged to Tenant pursuant to such Tenant Delay Notice (it being understood and agreed that if Tenant shall in fact eliminate the Tenant Delay within the 48-hour cure period, no Tenant Delay shall be deemed to have occurred for the purposes of this Article III). In addition, any delay to the extent caused by (i) Landlord Delay or (ii) subject to the limitations of subsection (D) below, Tenant's Force Majeure (as defined in said subsection (D)) shall not constitute Tenant Delay. Tenant covenants that no Tenant Delay shall delay commencement of the Term or the obligation to pay Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent. The Delivery Dates and/or the date of substantial completion of the Base Building Work, as applicable, shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date when such Delivery Dates and/or date of substantial completion of the Base Building Work, as applicable, would have occurred but for any Tenant Delays, as determined by Landlord in the exercise of its good faith business judgment (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not be construed so as to relieve Landlord of its obligation to actually complete the Base Building Work, notwithstanding the fact that substantial completion may have been deemed to have occurred prior to actual completion as the result of Tenant Delays).

  • Force Majeure If by reason of Force Majeure, either party hereto shall be rendered unable wholly or in part to carry out its obligations under this Agreement then such party shall give notice and full particulars of Force Majeure in writing to the other party within a reasonable time after occurrence of the event or cause relied upon, and the obligation of the party giving such notice, so far as it is affected by such Force Majeure, shall be suspended during the continuance of the inability then claimed, except as hereinafter provided, but for no longer period, and such party shall endeavor to remove or overcome such inability with all reasonable dispatch.

  • Force Majeure Events a) Neither Party shall be responsible or liable for or deemed in breach hereof because of any delay or failure in the performance of its obligations hereunder (except for obligations to pay money due prior to occurrence of Force Majeure events under this Agreement) or failure to meet milestone dates due to any event or circumstance (a "Force Majeure Event") beyond the reasonable control of the Party experiencing such delay or failure, including the occurrence of any of the following:

  • FORCE MAJEURE CLAUSE Contractor shall be excused from performance hereunder during the time and to the extent that it is prevented from obtaining delivery, or performing by act of God, fire, strike, loss, or shortage of transportation facilities, lock-out, commandeering of materials, product, plant, or facilities by the government, when satisfactory evidence thereof is presented to the District, provided that it is satisfactorily established that the non-performance is not due to the fault or neglect of Contractor.

  • Tenant Delay If substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements, Warm Shell Improvements or Base Building is delayed due to any of the following (collectively, "Tenant Delays"), then the Delivery Date and/or Commencement Date, as applicable, shall be adjusted to reflect what the substantial completion date would have been if there had been no delay: (i) Tenant's failure to timely submit any items required by this Work Letter, including, without limitation, Tenant's Plans; (ii) Tenant Modifications; (iii) Tenant's failure to comply with Landlord's contractor's schedule; (iv) Tenant's or Tenant's Contractor's failure to comply with Paragraph 8, (v) Tenant's requested changes to the Tenant's Plans after they are approved by Landlord; (vi) Tenant's request for materials, finishes or installations which require longer than thirty (30) days to complete; (vii) delays caused by Tenant in construction of the Warm Shell Improvements or the Tenant Improvements; or (viii) any other event expressly constituting "Tenant Delay" pursuant to any provision of this Work Letter. Landlord shall give Tenant at least five (5) days prior notice if Landlord becomes aware that Tenant is in danger of causing a Tenant Delay, and if Tenant takes appropriate measures to prevent such delay within such five (5) day period, no adjustment to the Delivery Date or Commencement Date shall be made on account of such Tenant Delay; provided, however, that if such delay was not reasonably foreseeable by Landlord, the five (5) day period for prior notice and opportunity to mitigate provided above shall be changed to forty-eight (48) hours after Landlord becomes aware of such delay or potential delay; and provided further, that no such notice shall be required if Tenant Delay results from Tenant's failure to perform any obligation within a specific date or time period (including, without limitation, any delay in delivery of Tenant's space plan or Working Drawings or non-compliance with Landlord's contractor's schedule), or from schedule changes resulting from Tenant Modifications of which Tenant is advised by Landlord's architect or contractor as provided in Paragraph 4, or from causes that, due to the parties' relative positions with respect to the construction process, are more likely to be foreseeable by Tenant than by Landlord.
