Lease Year Lease Year" means each consecutive twelve-month period beginning with the Commencement Date, except that if the Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month, then the first Lease Year shall be the period from the Commencement Date through the final day of the twelve months after the first day of the following month, and each subsequent Lease Year shall be the twelve months following the prior Lease Year.
Base Rent Adjustments Base Rent shall be increased on each annual anniversary of the first day of the first full month during the Term of this Lease (each an “Adjustment Date”) by multiplying the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date by the Rent Adjustment Percentage and adding the resulting amount to the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date. Base Rent, as so adjusted, shall thereafter be due as provided herein. Base Rent adjustments for any fractional calendar month shall be prorated.
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.
Rental Adjustments 6.1 The Basic Annual Rent then in effect (and as previously increased pursuant to this Section 6.1) shall be increased each year by three percent (3%) on each annual anniversary of the Term Commencement Date for so long as this Lease continues in effect.
Minimum Rent The defined term “Minimum Rent” set forth in Section 1.66 of the Lease is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
Lease Termination Except as provided in this Section 9.04, upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as existed on the date Tenant first occupied the Premises, (whether pursuant to this Lease or an earlier lease), subject to reasonable wear and tear. All Alterations shall become a part of the Premises and shall become the property of Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, unless Landlord shall, by written notice given to Tenant, require Tenant to remove some or all of Tenant’s Alterations, in which event Tenant shall promptly remove the designated Alterations and shall promptly repair any resulting damage, all at Tenant’s sole expense. All business and trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture, movable partitions and items of personal property owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises shall be and remain the property of Tenant; upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, at its sole expense, remove all such items and repair any damage to the Premises or the Building caused by such removal. If Tenant fails to remove any such items (“Abandoned Items”) or repair such damage promptly after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Landlord may, but need not, do so with no liability to Tenant, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof upon demand. Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord for any and all loss, cost, damage, liability or expense as incurred (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs) arising out of or related to any claim, suit or judgment brought by or in favor of any person or persons for damage, loss or expense which arises out of, is occasioned by or is in any way attributable to the Abandoned Items. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event that Landlord gives its consent, pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.01 of this Lease, to allow Tenant to make an Alteration in the Premises, Landlord agrees, upon Tenant’s written request, to notify Tenant in writing at the time of the giving of such consent whether Landlord will require Tenant, at Tenant’s cost, to remove such Alteration at the end of the Lease Term.
Sublease Rent Limitation Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Lessee shall not sublet the Leased Property on any basis such that the rental to be paid by the sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the income or profits derived by the business activities of the sublessee, or (b) any other formula such that any portion of the Rent would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto.
Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section 4.4.1, below, and as Additional Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for each Expense Year.
Minimum Rental Beginning with the Commencement Date and continuing through the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Minimum Rental in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 1(g) in equal monthly installments each in advance on or before the first day of each month. If the Commencement Date is a date other than the first day of a calendar month, the Minimum Rental shall be prorated daily from such date to the first day of the next calendar month and paid on or before the Commencement Date.
Payment of Basic Rent Basic Rent shall be paid absolutely net to Lessor or its designee, so that this Lease shall yield to Lessor the full amount thereof, without setoff, deduction or reduction.
