Landlord’s Option At any time within ten (10) days after Landlord's receipt of the notice specified in Section 14.2, Landlord may by notice to Tenant elect to (a) terminate this Lease as to the portion (including all) of the Premises that is specified in Tenant's notice, with a proportionate abatement in the Base Rent, (b) consent to the Sublease or Assignment, or (c) disapprove the Sublease or Assignment; Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the Assignment or Sublease. Tenant shall pay as additional rent, Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the review of any proposed Assignment or Sublease. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the amount by which all sums payable to Tenant in connection with such Assignment or Sublease exceed the total of (a) Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, (b) reasonable leasing commission incurred by Tenant in connection therewith, and (c) the cost of any Alterations reasonably incurred in connection therewith, and (d) advertisement costs. If Landlord consents to the Sublease or Assignment within such ten (10) day period, Tenant may thereafter within sixty (60) days after Landlord's consent enter into such Assignment or Sublease with such approved assignee or subtenant upon the terms and conditions set forth in the notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.2. No Assignment or Sublease shall be binding on Landlord until Tenant delivers an executed copy of such Assignment or Sublease to Landlord. Notwithstanding Section 14.3 or any other provision to the contrary, in the event Landlord exercises its recapture right under this Section 14.3, Tenant shall have the right to rescind its notice for request to sublease, assign or transfer within three (3) business days following receipt of Landlord's notice of recapture.
Landlord’s Options Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to Tenant within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s receipt of a Transfer Notice accompanied by the other information described in Section 12.1, to: (a) permit Tenant to Transfer the Premises; or (b) disapprove (provided, Landlord’s disapproval must be in accordance with Section 12.1 hereof) the Tenant’s Transfer of the Premises and to continue the Lease in full force and effect as to the entire Premises; or (c) in the event of (i) a proposed assignment of the Lease or (ii) a sublease of more than 50% of the Premises (taking into account all sublets in the aggregate) for all or substantially all of the balance of the Term, terminate the Lease as of the proposed effective date of the Transfer set forth in Tenant’s Transfer Notice (a “Recapture”); provided, however, that if Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s intention to Recapture the Premises, Tenant may elect to withdraw its Transfer Notice by written notice of such election delivered to Landlord within ten (10) business days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Recapture notice. If Landlord approves of the proposed Transfer pursuant to Section 12.1 above, Tenant may enter into the proposed Transfer with such proposed Transferee subject to the following conditions: (i) the Transfer shall be on the same terms set forth in the Transfer Notice; and (ii) no Transfer shall be valid and no Transferee shall take possession of the Premises until an executed counterpart of the assignment, sublease or other instrument effecting the Transfer (in the form approved by Landlord) has been delivered to Landlord pursuant to which the Transferee shall expressly assume all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease applicable to that portion of the Premises then being transferred (provided that, for a subtenant, the rental obligations shall be governed by the terms of the applicable sublease). If Landlord exercises its option to terminate this Lease (or in the case of a partial sublet to release Tenant with respect to a portion of the Premises) as provided above, Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises on the proposed effective date of the Transfer set forth in Tenant’s Transfer Notice, and thereafter neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further liability with respect thereto, except with respect to those matters that expressly survive the termination of the Lease.
Landlord’s Termination Right Whether or not the Premises are affected, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, within 60 days following the date upon which Landlord receives notice of the Taking of all or a portion of the Real Property, the Building or the Premises, terminate this Lease, provided that Landlord elects to terminate leases (including this Lease) affecting at least 50% of the rentable area of the Building.
Option Rent The annual Rent payable by Tenant during the Option Term (the “Option Rent”) shall be equal to the “Fair Rental Value,” as that term is defined below, for the Premises as of the commencement date of the Option Term. The “Fair Rental Value,” as used in this Lease, shall be equal to the annual rent per rentable square foot (including additional rent and considering any “base year” or “expense stop” applicable thereto), including all escalations, at which tenants (pursuant to leases consummated within the twelve (12) month period preceding the first day of the Option Term), are leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity space which is not significantly greater or smaller in size than the subject space, with a comparable level of improvements (excluding any property that Tenant would be allowed to remove from the Premises at the termination of the Lease), for a comparable lease term, in an arm’s length transaction, which comparable space is located in the “Comparable Buildings,” as that term is defined in this Section 2.2.2, below (transactions satisfying the foregoing criteria shall be known as the “Comparable Transactions”), taking into consideration the following concessions (the “Concessions”): (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; (b) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space, and taking into account the value, if any, of the existing improvements in the subject space, such value to be based upon the age, condition, design, quality of finishes and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same can be utilized by a general office/lab user other than Tenant; and (c) other reasonable monetary concessions being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; provided, however, that in calculating the Fair Rental Value, no consideration shall be given to the fact that Landlord is or is not required to pay a real estate brokerage commission in connection with Tenant’s exercise of its right to extend the Lease Term, or the fact that landlords are or are not paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space. The Concessions shall be reflected in the effective rental rate (which effective rental rate shall take into consideration the total dollar value of such Concessions as amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term of the Comparable Transaction (in which case such Concessions evidenced in the effective rental rate shall not be granted to Tenant)) payable by Tenant. The term “Comparable Buildings” shall mean the Building and those other life sciences buildings which are comparable to the Building in terms of age (based upon the date of completion of construction or major renovation of to the building), quality of construction, level of services and amenities, size and appearance, and are located in South San Francisco, California and the surrounding commercial area.
Landlord’s Election If Tenant desires to assign its interest under the Lease or to sublet all or part of the Leased Premises (a “Proposed Transfer”), Tenant must first notify Landlord, in writing, of such Proposed Transfer, at least fifteen (15) business days in advance of the date it intends to close the Proposed Transfer, specifying (a) the size of the space to be so transferred, (b) the duration of the term of such Proposed Transfer and (c) the terms of the Proposed Transfer, including the name of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the proposed assignee’s or sublessee’s intended use of the Leased Premises, current financial statements (including a balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flow, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) of such proposed assignee or sublessee, the form of documents to be used in effectuating such assignment or subletting and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall have a period of fifteen (15) business days following receipt of such notice and the required information to consent or decline to consent to the Proposed Transfer. If Landlord does not respond within such fifteen (15) business day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Proposed Transfer. If Landlord declines to consent to the Proposed Transfer, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing, specifying the reasons under this Lease that such refusal is justified. During such fifteen (15) business day period, Tenant covenants and agrees to supply to Landlord, promptly upon request, all necessary or relevant information which Landlord may reasonably request respecting such proposed assignment or subletting and/or the proposed assignee or sublessee.
LANDLORD The covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord are binding on Landlord, its successors, and assigns only during their respective period of ownership of an interest in the Building. In the event of any transfer or transfers of such title to the Building, Landlord (and, in the case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be concurrently freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, without any further instrument or agreement, of all liability with respect to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed.
LANDLORD'S SERVICES Provided Tenant is not in default hereunder, Landlord shall, at Landlord's expense, except as provided to the contrary in this Lease, furnish to Tenant the following services:
Landlord May Grant Liens Without the consent of Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist any lien, encumbrance or title retention agreement (“Encumbrance”) upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or interest therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other means of financing or refinancing.
RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any abatement of rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than rent, required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue beyond any applicable cure period set forth in this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, make any such payment or perform any such other act on Tenant's part to be made or performed as is in this Lease provided. All sums so paid by Landlord and all reasonable incidental costs, together with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date of such payment by Landlord, shall be payable to Landlord on demand and Tenant covenants to pay any such sums, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the nonpayment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of the rent.
Holdover Rent Any holding over by the Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term shall be treated as a tenancy at sufferance, at the Rent set forth below, and otherwise on the terms and conditions of this Lease. Landlord and Tenant recognize that Landlord’s damages resulting from Tenant’s failure to timely surrender possession of the Premises may be substantial, may exceed the amount of the Rent payable hereunder, and will be impossible to accurately measure. Accordingly, if possession of the Premises is not surrendered to Landlord by the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease, in addition to any other rights or remedies Landlord may have hereunder or at law, Tenant shall pay to Landlord for each month (or any portion thereof) during which Tenant holds over in the Premises after the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease, a sum equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Rent payable under this Lease for the last full calendar month of the Term prorated daily for each day of holdover. In addition, if Tenant holds over in the Premises for more than thirty (30) days after the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease, then Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against (i) all claims for damages by any tenant obtained by Landlord for all or any part of the Premises (a “New Tenant”), and (ii) all consequential, indirect, and special damages incurred by Landlord arising out of or resulting of any such holding-over by Tenant, including, without limitation, the loss of the benefit of the bargain if any New Tenant shall terminate its lease by reason of the holding over by Tenant. No holding-over by Tenant nor the payment to Landlord of the amounts specified above, shall operate to extend the Term hereof. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to permit Tenant to retain possession of the Premises after the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease, and no acceptance by Landlord of payments from Tenant after the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amount to be paid by Tenant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 18.2.
