(ii) the Tenant has not given the Demised Premises back to the Landlord free of the Tenant’s occupation and the occupation of any other lawful occupier and without any continuing underleases;

(iii) the Tenant has not paid the Landlord the sum of ***58,140 plus (if applicable) VAT in cleared funds on or before the Break Date which sum is due, for the avoidance of doubt, in addition to any monies due under clause 6.14(c)(i).

6.15. Uninsured risks

(a) In this Clause 6.15 (Uninsured Risks), an “Uninsured Risk” means any risk, or some aspect of any risk, which would be covered by the risks itemised in the definition of “Insured Risks” but which:

(i) is excluded from being so by reason of withdrawal of cover by the insurer and which is not otherwise available to be insured in the London insurance market; or

(ii) is withdrawn from cover by the Landlord on the grounds that in the Landlord’s reasonable opinion cover cannot be placed in the London insurance market at reasonable commercial rates or on reasonable commercial conditions.

(b) An Insured Risk does not become an Uninsured Risk for the purposes of clause 6.15(a) by reason only of:

(i) being excluded, or partially excluded, from cover due to standard exclusion provisions on the policy;

(ii) rejection by the insurer of liability, or some part of it, due to vitiation by the Tenant; or

(iii) infringement by the Landlord of policy conditions for the maintenance of cover.

(c) The obligations of the Tenant to repair and to decorate, and to yield up in repair and decorated, the Demised Premises do not apply to damage or destruction caused by an Uninsured Risk.

(d) The provisions of this clause 6.15 (Uninsured Risks) apply if the Building (whether or not directly affecting the Demised Premises) is damaged or destroyed by an Uninsured Risk so as to make the Demised Premises unfit for occupation, use or enjoyment.

(e) If the damage or destruction referred to in clause 6.15(d) occurs, the Landlord may within 12 months after the date of the damage or destruction elect to rebuild or reinstate the Demised Premises by giving notice to the Tenant to that effect and if the Landlord so elects the Landlord shall as soon as may reasonably be practicable use its reasonable endeavours to rebuild or reinstate the Building providing the cost of doing so out of its own resources.

28

(f) The Landlord may at any time before it has made an election under clause 6.15(e) decide not to rebuild or reinstate the Building and may instead terminate this Lease by giving notice to the Tenant to that effect to expire immediately.

(g) If the Landlord has not made an election under clause 6.15(e) within 12 months after the date of damage or destruction of the Building, the Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving to the Landlord notice to that effect at any time thereafter to expire immediately unless the Landlord has made such an election in the meantime.

(h) During the period before the Landlord makes an election under clause 6.15.(e) or terminates this Lease under clause 6.15(f), the rent and service charge, or a fair proportion of them according to the nature and extent of the damage or destruction sustained, are to be suspended and cease to be payable and in case of dispute the matter shall be referred to arbitration under the provisions of the Arbitration Xxx 0000.

(i) If the Landlord has not commenced rebuilding or reinstating the Building within twelve months after making the election under clause 6.15(e), the Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving to the Landlord notice to that effect at any time thereafter to expire immediately, unless the Landlord has commenced rebuilding or reinstating the Building before the expiry of the notice.

(j) If the Landlord has not practically completed the works of rebuilding or reinstating the Building (as evidenced by the issue of the certificate or statement of practical completion under the building contract for the works) within the period of three years after making the election under Clause 6.15(e), then either the Landlord or the Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving to the other not less than six months’ notice to that effect to expire at the end of that period, unless practical completion has taken place before the expiry of the notice.

(k) On the expiry of any notice of termination given under this Clause 6.15 (Uninsured Risks), this Lease will terminate unless provided otherwise, but without affecting any liability arising from a breach of covenant or condition which has occurred before then.

6.16. Retention of Insurance Proceeds

On the termination of this Lease under clause 6.15 (Uninsured Risks) or if this Lease is terminated by the operation of the doctrine of frustration or otherwise, the Landlord is to be entitled to retain all of the proceeds of insurance for its exclusive benefit.
