Rent Abatement Except for the negligence or willful act of Tenant or its agents, employees, contractors or invitees, if all or any part of the Premises are rendered untenantable by fire or other casualty and this Lease is not terminated, Monthly Base Rent and Rent Adjustments shall xxxxx for that part of the Premises which is untenantable on a per diem basis from the date of the casualty until Landlord has Substantially Completed the repair and restoration work in the Premises which it is required to perform, provided, that as a result of such casualty, Tenant does not occupy the portion of the Premises which is untenantable during such period.
Base Rent Abatement Provided that Tenant is not then in Default, and subject to the terms of this Section 3.2 below, then (i) during the last six (6) full calendar months of the Lease Term with respect to the Phase I Premises and (ii) during the last ten (10) full calendar months of the Lease Term with respect to the Phase II Premises (collectively, the “Base Rent Abatement Period”), Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Base Rent otherwise attributable to the Premises or the Phase II Premises, as applicable, during such Base Rent Abatement Period (collectively, the “Rent Abatement Amount”). Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing Base Rent Abatement has been granted to Tenant as additional consideration for entering into this Lease, and for agreeing to pay the rental and perform the terms and conditions otherwise required under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord’s option, on a month by month basis commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, to accelerate any remaining Base Rent Abatement Amount relating to a full month during the Base Rent Abatement Period for a particular phase of the Premises (the “Phase”) forward, to apply to the Base Rent that would otherwise be due with respect to the next occurring month of the Lease Term for such Phase (the “Landlord Base Rent Abatement Acceleration Election”), in which case Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent attributable to such next occurring month of the Lease Term for such Phase, and the Base Rent Abatement Amount that is accelerated forward shall no longer be applicable during the Base Rent Abatement Period. Landlord may make such election on a month by month basis with respect to each of the months of the Base Rent Abatement Period. In addition, commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, if Landlord has not exercised the Landlord Base Rent Abatement Acceleration Election on or before the date that the next installment of Base Rent is due under the Lease, and provided that the Lease has not been terminated as a result of any Default of Tenant or rejection of the Lease in bankruptcy (the “Abatement Condition”), then Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s option, on a month by month basis commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, to accelerate any Base Rent Abatement Amount relating to a full month during the Base Rent Abatement Period for a Phase forward to apply to the Base Rent that would otherwise be due with respect to the next occurring month of the Lease Term for such Phase (the “Tenant Base Rent Abatement Acceleration Election”), in which case Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent attributable in such next occurring month of the Lease Term for such Phase, and the Base Rent Abatement Amount that is accelerated forward shall no longer be applicable during the Base Rent Abatement Period. Tenant may not elect to accelerate more than one (1) month of such Base Rent Abatement at any particular time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as the Abatement Condition is satisfied, if Tenant fails to deliver notice to Landlord exercising the Tenant Base Rent Abatement Acceleration Election for a particular month of the Lease Term, then Tenant shall be deemed to have elected to exercise the Tenant Base Rent Abatement Acceleration Election for such month without the requirement of providing notice to Landlord. Notwithstanding the different monetary amount of one (1) full calendar month at the end of the Lease Term from the monetary amount of one (1) full calendar month at the beginning of the Lease Term, the value of any full month of Base Rent Abatement, whether accelerated by Landlord or by Tenant, shall be equal to one (1) full month of Base Rent at the time it is applied.
Partial Taking If any part of the Premises is taken and the remaining part after Landlord makes repairs and alterations is reasonably suitable, as reasonably determined by Landlord and Tenant, for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the purposes and uses permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall, as to the part so taken terminate as of the date that possession of such part of the Premises is taken and the Base Monthly Rental shall be reduced in the same proportion that the floor area of the portion of the Building so taken (less any addition thereto by reason of any reconstruction) bears to the original floor area of the Building. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, make all necessary repairs or alterations to the Building so as to make the portion of the Building not taken a complete architectural unit in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 19.4, Landlord shall make available to Tenant any condemnation proceeds it receives which are allocable to such portion of the Building in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 19.4. Base Monthly Rental due and payable hereunder shall be temporarily abated during such restoration period in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of Premises is impaired. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the square footage of the Building is taken or sold under such threat, Landlord may terminate this Lease as of the date that the condemning authority takes possession by delivery of written notice of such election within twenty (20) days after Landlord has been notified of the taking or, in the absence thereof, within twenty (20) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession.
