OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM OF THE CONTRACT (MAR 2000)
Right to Extend Dealer may postpone any Settlement Date or any other date of valuation or delivery, with respect to some or all of the relevant Settlement Shares, if Dealer determines, based on advice of counsel, that such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable Dealer to effect purchases of Shares in connection with its hedging activity hereunder in a manner that would, if Dealer were Counterparty or an affiliated purchaser of Counterparty, be in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Right to Extend Term Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of the Lease upon the following terms and conditions:
Option to Extend Lease Term Landlord hereby grants to Tenant one option to extend the Lease Term of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxx Lease for a five (5) year term commencing when the prior term expires, under the following terms and conditions:
Option to Extend Provided (i) Tenant (as used in this Section 16.16, the term "Tenant" shall also include any Permitted Transferee that succeeds to Tenant's interest under Article 11, above) is not in Default hereunder at the time it exercises this option, (ii) the creditworthiness of Tenant is no less than on the date hereof, (iii) Tenant originally named herein remains in possession of all or substantially all of the Leased Premises, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Original Term for three (3) successive periods of five (5) years each (the "Extension Term(s)"). The Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions contained in the Lease during the initial Lease Term (the "Original Term") except (i) this provision giving five (5) extension options shall be amended to reflect the remaining options to extend, if any and (ii) the Minimum Annual Rent shall be adjusted as set forth below (the "Rent Adjustment"). Tenant shall exercise such option by (i) delivering to Landlord, no later than sixteen (16) months prior to the expiration of the Original Term or, if applicable, the Extension Term, written notice of Tenant's desire to extend the Original Term or, if applicable, the Extension Term, and (ii) delivering to Landlord within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of the Rent Adjustment, written notice of its rejection thereof (which rejection shall terminate Tenant's option to extend), or that Tenant disputes Landlord's determination of the Rental Adjustment and shall include Tenant's good faith determination of what the Rental Adjustment should be. In the case of a notice disputing the Rental Adjustment, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually work together for a period of ten (10) days to resolve the dispute and, if unable to agree upon the Rental Adjustment within said period, Landlord and Tenant shall in good faith participate in non-binding arbitration of the Rental Adjustment for a period of thirty (30) days. Unless Landlord otherwise agrees in writing, Tenant's failure to timely exercise such option shall waive it and any succeeding option. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of the Rent Adjustment no later than sixty (60) days after receipt of Tenant's exercise of its option. If Tenant properly exercises its option to extend, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease reflecting the terms and conditions of the Extension Term. The Minimum Annual Rent for the applicable Extension Term shall be an amount equal to the Minimum Annual Rent then being quoted by Landlord to prospective tenants of the Building for space of comparable size and quality and with similar or equivalent improvements as are found in the Building, and if none, then in similar buildings in the vicinity, excluding free rent and other concessions. The Minimum Monthly Rent shall be an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the Minimum Annual Rent for the Extension Term and shall be paid at the same time and in the same manner as provided in the Lease.
Extension Right Tenant shall have 1 right (the “Extension Right”) to extend the term of this Lease for 3 years (the “Extension Term”) on the same terms and conditions as this Lease (other than Base Rent) by giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise each Extension Right at least 12 months, and no earlier than 18 months, prior to the expiration of the Base Term of the Lease.
Extension Option Provided the original Tenant (or tenant under a Permitted Transfer) named herein is itself occupying greater than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Premises at the time of giving its notice to exercise its option and at the commencement of the Extension Term (as defined herein), Tenant shall have the right and option to extend the Term for one (1) additional period of five (5) years (“Extension Term”). The right and option to so extend the term shall be personal to the Tenant executing this Lease and such right and option may not be assigned or transferred to any other party or entity. The Extension Term is to commence immediately upon expiration of the initial two (2) year Term (the “Original Term”), provided that Tenant shall give Landlord notice of Tenant’s exercise of such option by no later than nine (9) months and no earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the then scheduled expiration of the Original Term, and provided further that no Default exists at the time of giving such notice or at the commencement of the Extension Term. If a Default exists at the time of giving such notice or at the time of commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant’s exercise of such option shall, at the option of Landlord, be null and void and of no further force and effect. Prior to the exercise by Tenant of any such option, the expression “Term” shall mean the Original Term. Except as expressly otherwise provided in the following paragraph, all the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements in the Lease contained herein shall be applicable to the Extension Term, except that there shall be no further extension terms. If Tenant shall give notice of its exercise of said option to extend in the manner and within the time period provided aforesaid, the Term shall be extended upon the giving of such notice without the requirement of any further action on the part of either Landlord or Tenant. If Tenant shall fail to give timely notice of the exercise of such option as aforesaid, Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term of this Lease, time being of the essence of the foregoing provisions. The Annual Base Rent payable during the Extension Term shall be the greater of (a) an amount equal to the Fair Market Rent for the Premises as of the commencement date of the Extension Term or (b) the Annual Base Rent payable in the year immediately preceding the Extension Term. The Fair Market Rent shall be determined in accordance with the provisions set forth below. If for any reason the Annual Base Rent payable during the Extension Term has not been determined as of the commencement date of the Extension Term, Tenant shall pay the Annual Base Rent payable for the year immediately preceding the commencement of the Extension Term until the Annual Base Rent for the Extension Term is determined, at which time, an appropriate adjustment, if any, shall be made. The Fair Market Rent shall mean the anticipated rent for the Premises as of the commencement of the Extension Term tinder market conditions then existing. No later than the one (1) month after Tenant’s Extension Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s estimate of the Fair Market Rent. No later than fifteen (15) days after such notification, Tenant may dispute Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent upon written notice thereof to Landlord which written notice shall contain Tenant’s estimate of the Fair Market Rent. If Tenant disputes Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent within such fifteen (15) day period, then the Fair Market Rent shall be determined by agreement between Landlord and Tenant during the next thirty (30) day period (the “Discussion Period”), but if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Fair Market Rent during the Discussion Period, then the Fair Market Rent shall be determined by the determination of a board of three (3) M.A.I, appraisers as hereafter provided, each of whom shall have at least five (5) years experience in the Lexington office rental market and each of whom is hereinafter referred to as “appraiser”, Tenant and Landlord shall each appoint one such appraiser and the two appraisers so appointed shall appoint the third appraiser (the “Neutral Appraiser”) which Neutral Appraiser shall have no then-existing relationship with Landlord or Tenant. The cost and expenses of each appraiser appointed separately by Tenant and Landlord shall be borne by the party who appointed the appraiser. The cost and expenses of the third appraiser shall be shared equally by Tenant and Landlord. Landlord and Tenant shall appoint their respective appraisers no later than fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Discussion Period and shall designate the appraisers so appointed by notice to the other party. The two appraisers so appointed and designated shall appoint the Neutral Appraiser no later than fifteen (15) days after the end of the Discussion Period and shall designate such appraiser by notice to Landlord and Tenant. The Neutral Appraiser shall then choose either the Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent or the Tenant’s estimate of Fair Market Rent as the Fair Market Rent of the space in question as of the commencement of the Extension Term and shall notify Landlord and Tenant of its determination no later than sixty (60) days after the end of the Discussion Period. The Fair Market Rent of the subject space determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall be deemed binding and conclusive on Tenant and Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either party shall fail to appoint its appraiser within the period specified above (such party referred to hereinafter as the “failing party”) the other party may serve notice on the failing party requiring the failing xxxxx to appoint its appraiser within ten (10) days of the giving of such notice and if the failing party shall not respond by appointment of its appraiser within said (10) day period, then the appraiser appointed by the other xxxxx shall be the sole appraiser whose choice of either the Landlord’s or the Tenant’s estimate of Fair Market Rent shall be binding and conclusive upon Tenant and Landlord. All times set forth herein are of the essence.
Options to Extend Term Tenant shall have two (2) options (each, an “Option”) to extend the Term by five (5) years each as to the entire Premises (and no less than the entire Premises) upon the following terms and conditions. Any extension of the Term pursuant to an Option shall be on all the same terms and conditions as this Lease, except as follows:
Extension Options (a) Borrower shall have two (2) options (each, an “Extension Option”) to extend the Maturity Date of the Loan for consecutive one (1) year periods (each, an “Extension Period”). In order to exercise the first such extension right, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a written notice (which may be revocable) of such extension no earlier than ninety (90) days and no later than thirty (30) days before the Initial Maturity Date (provided that if Borrower shall subsequently revoke such notice, then Borrower shall be responsible for Lender’s out of pocket costs and expenses in connection with such revocation, including, without limitation, Breakage Costs), and, upon giving of such notice of extension, and subject to the satisfaction of each of the applicable conditions set forth below in Section 2.3.6(b) on or before the applicable date specified below, the Initial Maturity Date as theretofore in effect will be extended to the First Extended Maturity Date. In order to exercise the second such extension right, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a written notice (which may be revocable) of such extension no earlier than ninety (90) days and no later than thirty (30) days before the First Extended Maturity Date (provided that if Borrower shall subsequently revoke such notice, then Borrower shall be responsible for Lender’s out of pocket costs and expenses in connection with such revocation, including, without limitation, Breakage Costs) and, upon the giving of such notice of extension, and subject to the satisfaction of each of the applicable conditions set forth below in Section 2.3.6(b) on or before the applicable date specified below, the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect will be extended to the Second Extended Maturity Date.
Right to Lease Landlord reserves the absolute right to effect such other tenancies in the Project as Landlord in the exercise of its sole business judgment shall determine to best promote the interests of the Building or Project. Tenant does not rely on the fact, nor does Landlord represent, that any specific tenant or type or number of tenants shall, during the Lease Term, occupy any space in the Building or Project.
