(C) If the
Rent Commencement Date is not the first (1st) day of a calendar
month, then (x) the Fixed Rent due hereunder for the calendar
month during which the Rent Commencement Date occurs shall be
adjusted appropriately based on the number of days in such calendar
month, and (y) Tenant shall pay to Landlord such amount
(adjusted as aforesaid for such calendar month) on the Rent
Commencement Date. If the Expiration Date is not the last day of a
calendar month, then the Fixed Rent due hereunder for the calendar
month during which the Expiration Date occurs shall be adjusted
appropriately based on the number of days in such calendar
month.

the entire Base Operating Expense Year, then Landlord shall have
the right to include the costs of obtaining such Terrorism
Insurance in any Operating Expense Year subsequent to the Base
Operating Expense Year only if, for purposes of calculating the
Operating Payment for such Operating Expense Year, the Base Year
Operating Expenses are increased to include a charge for Terrorism
Insurance (which charge shall be reasonably determined to be the

2.2.
|
Calculation of Operating
Expenses.
|
(A) If,
during any Operating Expense Year, (i) any rentable space in the
Office Units shall be vacant or unoccupied, and/or (ii) the tenant
or occupant of any space in the Office Units undertook to perform
work or services therein in lieu of having Landlord, the Office
Unit One Owner, or the Condominium Board, as the case may be,
perform the same and the cost thereof would otherwise have been
included in Operating Expenses, then, in any such event, the
Operating Expenses for such Operating Expense Year which would vary
with the percentages of occupancy of the Office Units or the
percentages of tenants or occupants for which work or services are
performed by Landlord, the Office Unit One Owner, or the
Condominium Board, as the case may be, shall be reasonably adjusted
to reflect as closely as possible the variable Operating Expenses
that actually would have been incurred if such space in the Office
Unit had been occupied or if Landlord, the Office Unit One Owner,
or the Condominium Board, as the case may be, had performed such
work or services (for example, if, during an Operating Expense
Year, fifty percent (50%) of the rentable space in the Office Unit
was vacant and as a result
thereof Landlord’s actual cost
of providing base building cleaning to rentable space in the Office
Unit was reduced by forty percent (40%) rather than fifty percent
(50%) due to economies of scale or for any other reason, then the
line item for base building cleaning provided to the rentable space
in the Office Unit for such Operating Expense Year would be
increased by the same forty (40%) percent, rather than fifty (50%)
percent, to reflect as closely as possible the variable Operating
Expenses that actually would have been incurred if such space had
been occupied for the entire Operating Expense Year). The
provisions of this Section 2.2(A) shall not be applicable to the
Base Operating Expense Year except as otherwise provided in Section
2.2(B) hereof.
(B) Landlord
and Tenant acknowledge that the Office Unit will be unoccupied for
a substantial portion of the Base Operating Expense Year and that
the Building will not be fully occupied for a substantial portion
of the Base Operating Expense Year. Accordingly, Landlord and
Tenant agree that the Base Operating Expenses shall be recalculated
promptly following the expiration of the Operating Expense Year
that constitutes calendar year 2006 to an amount equal to the
actual Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord for the Operating
Expense Year that constitutes calendar year 2006 (as same may be
adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2(A)
hereof), reduced by any identifiable percentage increases in such
Operating Expenses, on an item-by-item basis, from the Base Year
Operating Expenses to the Operating Expense Year that constitutes
calendar year 2006 (for example, if Landlord pays $105.00 for a
particular Operating Expense in the Operating Expense Year that
constitutes calendar year 2006 and Landlord’s cost for such
particular Operating Expense increased by five percent (5%) from
the Base Operating Expense Year to the Operating Expense Year that
constitutes calendar year 2006, then the amount included in Base
Operating Expenses for such particular Operating Expense shall be
$100.00). Tenant shall have the right to audit and challenge the
calculation of Base Operating Expenses provided for in this Section
2.2(B) hereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4
hereof. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may require Tenant to pay
Operating Expenses for the Operating Expense Year that constitutes
calendar year 2006 pursuant to a Prospective Operating Statement,
in which event the Base Operating Expenses that are a part of the
calculation of the Operating Payment set forth therein shall be
calculated pursuant to Section 2.2(A) hereof, subject to adjustment
following the expiration of the Operating Expense Year that
constitutes calendar year 2006 in accordance with the terms of this
Section 2.2(B).
(C) Landlord
and Tenant acknowledge that the common charges assessed by the
Condominium Board are allocated to the Office Unit (and,
accordingly, included in Operating Expenses) based upon methods of
allocation set forth in the Condominium Documents, and that such
allocations may change as the Building develops an operating
history to reflect a more fair allocation of such common charges.
Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant each agree that if, in calendar
year 2006 or calendar year 2007, (i) an allocation (or method of
allocation) of a particular common charge changes from the
particular allocation (or method of allocation) used in the Base
Operating Expense Year (i.e., calendar year 2005), and (ii) such
allocation (or method of allocation) impacts Operating Expenses
(including Base Operating Expenses), then Base Operating Expenses
shall be recalculated to reflect such change in allocation (or
method of allocation) as if such allocation (or method of
allocation) had originally been used to calculate Base Operating
Expenses. Landlord and Tenant each acknowledge that pursuant to
Section 2.1(C) hereof, Operating Expenses may include common
charges assessed
against the Office Unit only to the
extent that they are fairly allocated to the Unit and would not
have been otherwise excluded from Operating Expenses in accordance
with the terms of this Article 2. Accordingly, notwithstanding the
fact that Landlord may be bound by certain allocations and methods
of allocation pursuant to the Condominium Documents, Tenant shall
have the right to audit and challenge the inclusion of common
charges assessed by the Condominium Board in any Operating Expense
Statement in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4 hereof.
Tenant shall also have the right to audit and challenge the
calculation of Base Operating Expenses provided for in this Section
2.2(C) hereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4
hereof.
(D) If
(i) Landlord includes an expense in Operating Expenses for a
particular Operating Expense Year, and (ii) Landlord receives
insurance proceeds, warranty proceeds or other proceeds
(collectively, " Proceeds ") as reimbursement for such
expense in a subsequent Operating Expense Year, then Landlord shall
deduct such Proceeds from Operating Expenses in the Operating
Expense Year during which Landlord receives such Proceeds (without
making a corresponding reduction in the Operating Expenses for the
Operating Expense Year during which Landlord incurred such expense,
except if Landlord incurred such expense in the last full Operating
Expense Year that occurs during the Term or the last partial
Operating Expense Year that occurs during the Term) (it being
understood that such deduction shall not exceed the amount of the
expense that Landlord previously included in Operating Expenses);
provided, however, that if Landlord receives such Proceeds in any
Operating Expense Year prior to the Operating Expense Year that
constitutes calendar year 2008 for an expense that Landlord
included in Base Operating Expenses, then Landlord shall have the
right to deduct such Proceeds (in an amount that does not exceed
the applicable expense) from Base Operating Expenses (rather than
deducting such Proceeds from Operating Expenses for the Operating
Expense Year during which Landlord receives such Proceeds), in
which case Tenant shall pay to Landlord the additional Operating
Expense Payment for each preceding Operating Expense Year that
derives from such reduction in the Base Operating Expenses, on or
prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the date that Landlord
gives Tenant an invoice therefore, together with reasonable
supporting documentation.
(E) Landlord
shall have the right to include in Operating Expenses, for the
electricity supplied to the Building Systems and other common
elements of the Building that in either case benefit the Office
Unit, an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying
(i) the Average Cost per Kilowatt Hour, by (ii) the
number of kilowatt hours of electricity used by the Building
Systems and the other common elements of the Building that in
either case benefit the Office Unit for the applicable period (as
registered on a submeter or submeters, or, at Landlord's option, as
determined by a survey prepared by an independent and reputable
electrical consultant) (it being understood that such number of
kilowatt hours as described in clause (ii) above shall not
include the number of kilowatt hours that are attributable to the
operation of the Building Systems to the extent that Tenant (or
other tenants in the Building) make separate payment to Landlord
therefor), including, without limitation, separate payments for the
delivery of condenser water, overtime HVAC and overtime freight
elevator service.
(F) If
(i) Landlord makes an improvement to the Office Unit or a
replacement of equipment at the Office Unit in either case in
connection with the maintenance, repair, management or operation
thereof, (ii) generally accepted accounting principles require
Landlord
to capitalize the cost of such
improvement or such replacement, and (iii) such improvement or
replacement is made (a) to comply with a Requirement that is
first enacted after the date hereof or that the applicable
Governmental Authority enforces in a different manner (by more than
a de minimis extent) after the date hereof, if such
Requirement was enacted prior to the date hereof, or (b) for
the purpose of saving or reducing Operating Expenses (such as, for
example, an improvement that reduces labor costs), then Landlord
shall include in Operating Expenses for each Operating Expense Year
the amount that amortizes the cost of such improvement or such
replacement, together with interest thereon calculated at the Base
Rate, in equal annual installments over the useful life of such
improvement or such equipment as determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (until the cost of such
improvement or such equipment is amortized fully); provided,
however, that for any such improvement or replacement that Landlord
makes for the purpose of saving or reducing Operating Expenses (and
that Landlord does not make to comply with a Requirement as
aforesaid), the aforesaid amount that Landlord includes in
Operating Expenses for any particular Operating Expense Year shall
not exceed the amount of the reduction in other Operating Expenses
for such Operating Expense Year that derives from such improvement
or such replacement.

|
2.3.
|
Operating Expense Payment.
|
(A) Landlord
may render to Tenant at any time from and after the Rent
Commencement Date an Operating Expense Statement for an Operating
Expense Year. Landlord’s failure to render an Operating
Statement to Tenant during or with respect to any Operating Expense
Year shall not prejudice Landlord’s right to render an
Operating Statement during or with respect to any other Operating
Expense Year, and shall not limit or impair Tenant’s
obligation to pay the Operating Payment for any Operating Expense
Year, except that if Landlord renders an Operating Statement to
Tenant with respect to any Operating Expense Year more than two (2)
years after the last day thereof, then Tenant shall not be
obligated to make an Operating Payment in respect of such Operating
Expense Year.
(B) No later
than thirty (30) days after the date on which Landlord delivers to
Tenant an Operating Statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the
Operating Payment shown thereon to be due for the Operating Expense
Year covered thereby.
(C) Subject
to the terms of this Section 2.3, Landlord shall have the
right, from time to time, to give an Operating Statement to Tenant,
on a prospective basis, for an Operating Expense Year, based on
Landlord’s reasonable good faith estimate of Operating
Expenses for such Operating Expense Year. In no event may any such
estimate of Operating Expenses exceed, by more than eight percent
(8%), the actual Operating Expenses for the immediately preceding
Operating Expense Year, if any; provided, however, that such
estimate may exceed such actual Operating Expenses by more than
eight percent (8%) to the extent Landlord has included in such
estimate a bona fide liquidated payment (constituting
an Operating Expense) which Landlord expects to make during the
Operating Expense Year covered thereby (any such Operating
Statement that Landlord gives to Tenant on a prospective basis as
contemplated by this Section 2.3(C) being referred to herein
as a “ Prospective Operating Statement ”). If
Landlord gives to Tenant a Prospective Operating Statement, then
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on a monthly basis, as additional
rent, on account of the Operating Payment due hereunder for such
Operating Expense Year, an amount equal to Landlord’s
reasonable good faith estimate of
monthly Operating Expenses as shown
on such Prospective Operating Statement. Tenant shall make such
monthly payments to Landlord for the period, and in the amounts, as
reflected on the applicable Prospective Operating Statement. Tenant
shall pay to Landlord the amount stated in any such Prospective
Operating Statement on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after
the date that Landlord gives such Prospective Operating Statement
to Tenant.
(D) If
Landlord gives to Tenant a Prospective Operating Statement, then
Landlord shall also provide to Tenant, within one hundred eighty
(180) days after the last day of the Operating Expense Year covered
by such Prospective Operating Statement, an Operating Statement for
such Operating Expense Year. If the aggregate amount of the
Operating Payment as reflected on such Operating Statement exceeds
the aggregate amount of the aforesaid monthly installments that
Tenant pays to Landlord pursuant to the Prospective Operating
Statement, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such
excess not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the date that
Landlord gives such Operating Statement to Tenant. If the aggregate
amount of the aforesaid monthly installments that Tenant pays to
Landlord pursuant to the Prospective Operating Statement exceeds
the aggregate amount of the Operating Payment as reflected on such
Operating Statement, then Landlord shall pay promptly to Tenant the
amount of such excess. If the aggregate amount of the aforesaid
monthly installments that Tenant pays to Landlord pursuant to the
Prospective Operating Statement exceeds the aggregate amount of the
Operating Payment as reflected on such Operating Statement by an
amount greater than ten percent (10%) of the amount of such
Operating Payment, then Landlord shall also pay to Tenant an amount
equal to interest computed at the Applicable Rate on the amount of
such excess from the date that the aggregate amount of the monthly
payments made by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the Prospective
Operating Statement first exceeded such Operating Payment until the
date that Landlord pays such excess to Tenant. Landlord’s
obligations with respect to any refund payable to Tenant under this
Section 2.3(D) shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease.
(E) If
the Rent Commencement Date occurs later than the first (1st) day of
the Operating Expense Year that immediately succeeds the Base
Operating Expense Year, then the Operating Expense Payment for the
Operating Expense Year during which the Rent Commencement Date
occurs shall be an amount equal to the product obtained by
multiplying (X) the Operating Expense Payment that would have
been due hereunder if the Rent Commencement Date was the first
(1st) day of such Operating Expense Year, by (Y) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of days in the period
beginning on the Rent Commencement Date and ending on the last day
of such Operating Expense Year, and the denominator of which is
three hundred sixty-five (365) (or three hundred sixty-six (366),
if such Operating Expense Year is a leap year).
(F) If
the Expiration Date is not the last day of an Operating Expense
Year, then the Operating Expense Payment for the Operating Expense
Year during which the Expiration Date occurs shall be an amount
equal to the product obtained by multiplying (X) the Operating
Expense Payment that would have been due hereunder if the
Expiration Date was the last day of such Operating Expense Year, by
(Y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
in the period beginning on the first (1st) day of such calendar
year and ending on the Expiration Date, and the denominator of
which is three hundred sixty-five (365) (or three hundred sixty-six
(366), if such Operating Expense Year is a leap year).
(G) If the
Operating Expenses for the Base Operating Expense Year are
redetermined in accordance with the applicable provisions of this
Article 2 at any time after the date that Landlord gives an
Operating Expense Statement to Tenant for an Operating Expense
Year, then Landlord shall give to Tenant a revised Operating
Expense Statement that recalculates the Operating Expense Payment
for each Operating Expense Year following the Base Operating
Expense Year (using the Operating Expenses that reflects such
redetermination for the Base Operating Expense Year). If and to the
extent that any such revised Operating Expense Statement results in
an underpayment by Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount
equal to the excess of (i) the Operating Expense Payment as
reflected on such revised Operating Expense Statement, over
(ii) the Operating Expense Payment as reflected on the prior
Operating Expense Statement, within thirty (30) days after Landlord
gives such revised Operating Expense Statement to Tenant. If and to
the extent that any such revised Operating Expense Statement
results in an overpayment by Tenant, Landlord shall pay to Tenant
an amount equal to the excess of (i) the Operating Expense
Payment as reflected on such revised Operating Expense Statement,
over (ii) the Operating Expense Payment as reflected on the
prior Operating Expense Statement, within thirty (30) days after
Landlord gives such revised Operating Expense Statement to Tenant.
Tenant shall have the right to submit to an Expedited Arbitration
Proceeding a dispute with respect to the provisions of this Section
2.3(G).

|
2.4.
|
Auditing of Operating Expense Statements.
|
(A) Subject
to the terms of this Section 2.4(A), any Operating Statement
sent to Tenant shall be conclusively binding upon Tenant unless,
within one (1) year after such Operating Statement is sent, Tenant
gives a notice to Landlord objecting to such Operating Statement
and specifying the respects in which such Operating Statement is
disputed. Landlord shall disclose to Tenant, in connection with
Tenant’s review of each Operating Statement, whether any
Person to which Landlord has paid amounts that Landlord has
included in Operating Expenses constitutes an Affiliate of
Landlord. If Tenant gives such notice to Landlord, then Tenant
(together with its reputable legal counsel, consultants and/or
independent public accountants) may promptly examine
Landlord’s books and records relating to such Operating
Statement to determine the accuracy thereof.
(B) Tenant
recognizes the confidential nature of such books and records and
shall deliver to Landlord a confidentiality statement signed by an
officer of Tenant (and a partner, principal or officer of
Tenant’s legal counsel, consultants and/or certified public
accountants to which such books and records have been delivered)
wherein Tenant and its legal counsel, consultants and/or certified
public accountants agree to maintain the information obtained from
such examination in strict confidence, except that Tenant and such
legal counsel, consultants and/or certified public accountants may
reveal such documentation to their agents, representatives and
employees who are actively involved in such investigation during
the course of its review, or to an arbitrator (provided that such
agents and representatives and, if permitted, any such arbitrator,
shall at such time deliver to Landlord a confidentiality statement
signed by an officer, partner or principal authorized to bind such
party) or to a court of competent jurisdiction in the event of a
dispute relating to the subject matter contained in whole or in
part in such records or as otherwise may be required by any
Requirement.
(C) If, after
such examination, Tenant still disputes such Operating Statement,
then either party may elect to have the decision of the issues
determined by an Expedited Arbitration Proceeding (it being
understood that the arbitrator in such matter shall be a qualified,
disinterested and impartial person (x) who is, and has been
for the last ten (10) years, a partner in a reputable accounting
firm that is regularly engaged in and familiar with the accounting
concepts applicable to the computation of operating expenses for
first-class office buildings located in midtown Manhattan, and
(y) who has not been employed by either party during the
previous three (3) years). If such decision shows that Tenant has
overpaid with respect to such Operating Statement by more than
three percent (3%), then Landlord shall also reimburse Tenant for
the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of Tenant’s audit of
Landlord’s books and records (provided, however, that
notwithstanding Tenant’s fee arrangements with its auditor,
Landlord shall only reimburse Tenant for the actual hours of
service provided by such auditor at the then reasonable and
customary hourly rate for such services) within thirty (30) days
after demand therefor. If such decision shows that Tenant overpaid
with respect to any particular item of Operating Expenses by more
than five percent (5%), then Tenant may examine Landlord’s
books and records covering the Operating Expense Years three (3)
years prior to such decision, but only in respect of such
particular item and only to the extent that Tenant has not
theretofore examined Landlord’s books and records in respect
of such Operating Expense Years. Any examination of
Landlord’s books and records pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence (and any dispute arising out of such inspection)
shall be made (and resolved) in accordance with the terms of this
Section 2.4(C). Notwithstanding the giving of such notice by
Tenant, and pending the resolution of any such dispute, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord when due all undisputed amounts shown on any
such Operating Statement. Nothing contained in this Section 2.4(C)
hereof shall constitute an extension of the date by which Tenant is
required to pay Escalation Rent to Landlord hereunder.
(A) The term
" Assessed Valuation " shall mean the amount for which the
Office Unit is assessed pursuant to applicable provisions of the
New York City Charter and of the Administrative Code of The City of
New York, in either case for the purpose of calculating all or any
portion of the Taxes (it being understood that pursuant to current
Requirements, the lower of the transitional assessment and the
actual assessment is used for purposes of calculating Taxes for a
particular Tax Year).
(B) The term
" Base Taxes " shall mean, subject to Section 2.7(D)
hereof, the Taxes for the Base Tax Year, but in no event shall Base
Taxes be less than an amount (the " Base Tax Floor ") equal
to the product of (x) Twenty-Three Million Three Hundred Fourteen
Thousand Five Hundred Sixty-Eight Dollars and 00/100 Cents
($23,314,568.00), and (y) the tax rate in effect for the Base Tax
Year.
(C) The term
" Base Tax Year " shall mean the fiscal year commencing on
July 1, 2005 and ending on June 30, 2006.
(D) The term
" Excluded Amounts " shall mean (i) any taxes imposed
on Landlord's income, (ii) franchise, estate, inheritance,
gains, capital stock, excise, excess profit, occupancy or rent,
gift, payroll or stamp taxes imposed on Landlord, (iii) any
charges and/or
taxes that are paid by individual
tenants, (iv) any transfer or mortgage recording taxes imposed in
connection with a transfer of the Building or the Office Unit or
any refinancing of either, or (v) any interest, penalties or late
charges imposed against Landlord.
(E) The
term " Qualified Tax Benefits " shall mean any exemption or
deferral of Taxes that (i) derives from a program a Governmental
Authority adopts to promote the improvement, redevelopment or
commercial occupancy of real property, (ii) derives from a
particular tenant's occupancy (or prospective occupancy) of a
portion of the Building, and (iii) Landlord is required by
applicable Requirements or the requirements of such program to
apply (and that Landlord does actually apply) for on behalf of a
particular tenant.
(F) The
term " Taxes " shall mean the aggregate amount of real
estate taxes and any general or special assessments that in each
case are imposed upon the Office Unit, without taking into account
(a) any discount that Landlord receives by virtue of any early
payment of Taxes, (b) any penalties or interest that the
applicable Governmental Authority imposes for the late payment of
such real estate taxes or assessments, (c) any Excluded
Amounts, (d) any Qualified Tax Benefits, or (e) the tax
exemption benefits allocable to the Office Unit under Section 421-a
of the Real Property Tax Law of The State of New York that derive
from the construction of a portion of the Building as a Multiple
Dwelling (as such term is defined in Section 421-a(1)(c) of the
Real Property Tax Law of the State of New York); provided, however,
that if, because of any change in the taxation of real estate, any
other tax or assessment, however denominated (including, without
limitation, any franchise, income, profit, sales, use, occupancy,
gross receipts or rental tax), is imposed upon the Office Unit, the
owner thereof, or the occupancy, rents or income derived therefrom,
in substitution for any of the Taxes, then such other tax or
assessment to the extent substituted shall be included in Taxes for
purposes hereof (assuming that the Office Unit is Landlord's sole
asset and the income therefrom is Landlord's sole income). Taxes
shall include, without limitation, (i) any taxes or assessments
levied from and after the date of this Lease, in whole or in part,
for public benefits to the Office Unit, including, without
limitation, any business improvement district taxes and
assessments, or (ii) any fee, tax or charge imposed by any
Governmental Authority for any vaults or vault spaces that in
either case are appurtenant to such Office Unit; provided, however,
that Taxes shall not include (i) separate assessments made
upon or with respect to any "air" and "development" rights now or
hereafter appurtenant to or affecting such Office Unit, or
(ii) separate assessments for any sign or billboard on the
Building that is leased to a third-party. If any Taxes are payable
in installments without interest, premium or penalty, then Landlord
shall include in Taxes for any particular Tax Year only the
installment of such real estate taxes or assessments that the
applicable Governmental Authority requires Landlord to pay (and
that Landlord actually pays) during such Tax Year.
(G) The term
" Tax Payment " shall mean, with respect to any Tax Year,
the product obtained by multiplying (i) the excess of (A) Taxes for
such Tax Year, over (B) the Base Taxes, by (ii) Tenant's Tax
Share.
(H) The term
" Tax Statement " shall mean a statement that shows the Tax
Payment for a particular Tax Year.
(I) The
term " Tax Year " shall mean the Base Tax Year and each
subsequent period from July 1 through June 30 (or such other period
as hereinafter may be duly adopted by the Governmental Authority
then imposing Taxes as its fiscal year for real estate tax
purposes).
(J) The
term " Tenant's Tax Share " shall mean, subject to the terms
hereof, eighty-nine and six hundred ninety-five one-thousandths
percent (89.695%).
(A) Subject
to the provisions of this Section 2.6, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, as additional rent, the Tax Payment.
(B) Subject
to the provisions of this Section 2.6, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
the Tax Payment for a particular Tax Year on or prior to the
thirtieth (30 th ) day before the date that the
applicable Governmental Authority obligates Landlord to make the
corresponding payment of Taxes for such Tax Year. If the applicable
Governmental Authority requires Landlord to pay the Taxes for a Tax
Year in more than one (1) installment, then Tenant shall pay the
Tax Payment to Landlord for such Tax Year in a corresponding number
of installments. Tenant shall not be required to make a Tax Payment
to Landlord (or to pay an installment thereof to Landlord) earlier
than the fifteenth (15 th ) day after the date that
Landlord gives Tenant a Tax Statement therefor. If Tenant's
obligation to make the Tax Payment hereunder commences on a date
that is not the date that the applicable Governmental Authority
requires Landlord to make a corresponding payment of Taxes, then
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on such date that Tenant's obligation
to make the Tax Payment hereunder commences, the installment of the
Tax Payment due hereunder for the corresponding period, which
installment shall be apportioned appropriately.
(C) If the
Rent Commencement Date occurs later than the first (1st) day of the
Tax Year that immediately succeeds the Base Tax Year, then the Tax
Payment for the Tax Year during which the Rent Commencement Date
occurs shall be an amount equal to the product obtained by
multiplying (X) the Tax Payment that would have been due
hereunder if the Rent Commencement Date was the first (1st) day of
such Tax Year, by (Y) a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of days in the period beginning on the Rent Commencement
Date and ending on the last day of such Tax Year, and the
denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365) (or three
hundred sixty-six (366), if such Tax Year includes the month of
February in a leap year).
(D) If the
Expiration Date is not the last day of a Tax Year, then the Tax
Payment for the Tax Year during which the Expiration Date occurs
shall be an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying
(X) the Tax Payment that would have been due hereunder if the
Expiration Date was the last day of such Tax Year, by (Y) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the
period beginning on the first (1st) day of such Tax Year and ending
on the Expiration Date, and the denominator of which is three
hundred sixty-five (365) (or three hundred sixty-six (366), if such
Tax Year includes the month of February in a leap year).
(E) The
Tax Payment shall be computed initially on the basis of the
Assessed Valuation in effect on the date that Landlord gives the
applicable Tax Statement to Tenant (as the
Taxes may have been settled or
finally adjudicated prior to such time) regardless of any then
pending application, proceeding or appeal to reduce the Assessed
Valuation, but shall be subject to subsequent adjustment as
provided in Section 2.7 hereof.
(F) Tenant
shall pay the Tax Payment regardless of whether Tenant is exempt,
in whole or part, from the payment of any Taxes by reason of
Tenant's diplomatic status or otherwise.
(G) If Taxes
are required to be paid on any date or dates other than as
presently required by the Governmental Authority imposing Taxes,
then the due date of the installments of the Tax Payment shall be
adjusted so that each such installment is due from Tenant to
Landlord thirty (30) days prior to the date that the corresponding
payment is due to the Governmental Authority.
(H) Landlord's
failure to give to Tenant a Tax Statement for any Tax Year shall
not impair Landlord's right to give to Tenant a Tax Statement for
any other Tax Year, provided, however, that if Landlord fails to
give Tenant a Tax Statement for any Tax Year on or before the date
that occurs two (2) years after the last day of such Tax Year to
which such Tax Statement applies, then Landlord shall be deemed to
have waived the payment of any then unpaid additional rent which
would have been due pursuant to such Tax Statement.
(I) Landlord
shall give to Tenant a copy of the relevant tax bill for each Tax
Year (to the extent that the applicable Governmental Authority has
issued such tax bill to Landlord) together with the Tax Statement
for such Tax Year.

2.7.
|
Reductions in Taxes.
|
(A) Landlord,
at Landlord's cost and expense, shall institute and prosecute in
good faith tax certiorari proceedings to reduce the Assessed
Valuation for each Tax Year occurring during the Term pursuant to
and in accordance with applicable Requirements, unless Tenant
agrees in writing that Landlord shall not be required to institute
any such proceedings with respect to any particular Tax Year (in
which event Landlord shall have the option in its discretion to
institute any such proceedings). Tenant, at Tenant's cost and
expense, shall have the right to have Tenant's tax certiorari
attorney or consultants participate in the institution and
prosecution of any such proceedings and Landlord shall reasonably
take into account the recommendations of Tenant's attorney or
consultant in connection with any such proceedings. Landlord shall
not enter into a settlement with the applicable Governmental
Authority with respect to any such proceeding without obtaining
Tenant's prior consent thereto, which consent Tenant shall not
unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Landlord shall not make
deliberate efforts in connection with any tax certiorari proceeding
instituted and prosecuted by Landlord hereunder (or any settlement
in connection therewith) to cause the applicable Governmental
Authority to lower the Assessed Valuation for the Base Tax Year in
return for agreeing to higher Assessed Valuations in Tax Years
occurring after the Base Tax Year. In no event shall any tax
certiorari proceeding result in Base Taxes being less than the Base
Tax Floor.
(B) If, after
a Tax Statement has been sent to Tenant, an Assessed Valuation that
Landlord used to compute the Tax Payment for a Tax Year is reduced,
and, as a result
thereof, a refund of Taxes is
actually received by, or credited to, Landlord, then Landlord,
promptly after Landlord's receipt of such refund (or such refund is
credited to Landlord, as the case may be), shall send to Tenant a
Tax Statement adjusting the Taxes for such Tax Year and setting
forth, based on such adjustment, the portion of such refund for
which Tenant is entitled a credit as set forth in this Section
2.7(B). Landlord shall credit the portion of such refund to which
Tenant is entitled against the Rental thereafter coming due
hereunder. The portion of such refund to which Tenant is entitled
shall be limited to the portion of the Taxes, if any, that Tenant
had theretofore paid to Landlord on account of the Tax Payment for
the Tax Year to which the refund is applicable on the basis of the
Assessed Valuation before it had been reduced. The Tax Payment paid
by Tenant for such Tax Year (after taking into account such refund)
shall be an amount equal to the Tax Payment that Tenant would have
paid hereunder if the Assessed Valuation used in computing Taxes
for such Tax Year had reflected initially the aforesaid reduction
thereof that yielded such refund. If (x) Tenant is entitled to a
credit against Rental pursuant to this Section 2.7(B), and (y) the
Expiration Date occurs prior to the date that such credit is
exhausted, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the unused portion of
such credit on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the
Expiration Date (and Landlord's obligation to make such payment
shall survive the Expiration Date). If (i) Landlord receives
such refund (or a credit therefor) after the Expiration Date, and
(ii) Tenant is entitled to a portion thereof as contemplated
by this Section 2.7(B), then Landlord shall pay to Tenant an amount
equal to Tenant's share of such refund (or such credit) within
thirty (30) days after the date that such refund is paid to
Landlord (or such refund is credited to Landlord, as the case may
be) (and Landlord's obligation to make such payment shall survive
the Expiration Date).
(C) If the
Assessed Valuation for the Base Tax Year is reduced at any time
after the date that Landlord gives a Tax Statement to Tenant for a
Tax Year, then Landlord shall have the right to give to Tenant a
revised Tax Statement that recalculates the Tax Payment for a Tax
Year (using the Taxes that reflect such reduction in such Assessed
Valuation) (it being agreed that the Base Taxes shall in no event
be less than the Base Tax Floor). Tenant shall pay to Landlord an
amount equal to the excess of (i) the Tax Payment as reflected on
such revised Tax Statement, over (ii) the Tax Payment as reflected
on the prior Tax Statement, within thirty (30) days after Landlord
gives such revised Tax Statement to Tenant.
(D) If, (I)
the Assessed Valuation for (x) the Tax Year commencing on
July 1, 2006 and ending on June 30, 2007, or (y) the Tax Year
commencing on July 1, 2007 and ending on June 30, 2008 increases,
in either case, over the Assessed Valuation for the prior Tax Year,
and (II) any portion of any such increase is attributable to
physical improvements made to the Office Unit that are identifiable
in any documentation (including the tax bill) received by Landlord
from the applicable Governmental Authority in respect of such Tax
Year, then Landlord shall recalculate the Base Taxes as follows:
(i) the Assessed Valuation for the Base Tax Year shall be deemed
increased by the amount of any such increase for such physical
improvements as aforesaid, and (ii) the Base Taxes shall be
recalculated by multiplying such increased Assessed Valuation
pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i) by the tax rate
that was in effect for the Base Tax Year, and (iii) such
recalculated amount shall be deemed to be the Base Taxes
retroactive to the Base Tax Year (subject to the terms of this
clause (D)). If the Assessed Valuation for the Base Tax Year is
increased as aforesaid, then Landlord shall give to Tenant a
revised Tax Statement that recalculates the Tax Payment theretofore
paid by Tenant for each Tax Year affected by such recalculation of
the Base Taxes (using the recalculated Base
Taxes as aforesaid), and from and
after Tenant's receipt of such revised Tax Statement, Tenant shall
have the right to credit against its next installments of Rental
due hereunder an amount equal to the excess of (i) the
applicable Tax Payment theretofor paid by Tenant for the applicable
Tax Year prior to the date of such recalculation by Landlord, over
(ii) the Tax Payment as reflected on the revised Tax Statement
given by Landlord to Tenant. Any recalculation of Base Taxes
pursuant to this Section 2.7(D) shall be subject to further
recalculation to the extent that the increases for physical
improvements reflected in the Assessed Valuation in either of the
Tax Years described in this clause (D) are reduced by virtue of a
tax certiorari proceeding or settlement (and, accordingly, Landlord
shall have the right to give Tenant a further revised Tax Statement
for an applicable Tax Year if such physical improvements are
reduced as aforesaid). In no event shall the provisions of this
Section 2.7 result in Base Taxes being less than the Base Tax
Floor.

Bloomberg Lease Restrictions.
|
Provided that the Bloomberg Lease is
still in full force and effect and the provisions of
Sections 40.1 through 40.7 of the Bloomberg Lease have not
been rendered ineffective pursuant to Section 40.8 of the
Bloomberg Lease, the Premises or any portion thereof may not be
used or occupied by any Person that is a Bloomberg Primary
Competitor. The term " Bloomberg Primary Competitor " shall
mean a Person that is included on the list of Bloomberg Primary
Competitors
annexed as Exhibit "3.3-1" attached
hereto and made a part hereof. Pursuant to the Lease (the "
Bloomberg Lease "), dated as of April 30, 2001, between
Seven Thirty One Limited Partnership, as landlord, and Bloomberg
L.P. (" Bloomberg "), as tenant, the list of Bloomberg
Primary Competitors may change only to the extent provided on
Exhibit "3.3-2" attached hereto and made a part hereof. Tenant
shall not be bound by any change in the list of Bloomberg Primary
Competitors set forth as Exhibit "3.3-2" attached hereto unless and
until Tenant has received written notice of such change in
accordance with Article 28 hereof. Nothing contained in this
Section 3.3 shall prevent the Premises or any portion thereof
(subject to the other terms and provisions of this Lease), from
being used by a Person that is a Bloomberg Primary Competitor if
such Person did not constitute a Bloomberg Primary Competitor on
the earlier to occur of (x) the date that such Person entered
into occupancy of the Premises (or a portion thereof), and
(y) the date that such Person entered into an agreement to
occupy the Premises (or a portion thereof).
(A) Subject
to the terms of this Section 3.4, Tenant shall comply with, and
Tenant shall cause any other Person claiming by, through or under
Tenant to comply with, (i) the rules set forth in Exhibit
"3.4-1" attached hereto and made a part hereof, (ii) the rules
with respect to Alterations set forth in Exhibit "3.4-2" attached
hereto and made a part hereof, and (iii) other reasonable
rules that Landlord hereafter adopts from time to time on
reasonable advance notice to Tenant (such rules that are attached
hereto, and such other rules, being collectively referred to herein
as the " Rules "), which other rules, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, are necessary for the reputation, safety, care
and appearance of the Real Property or the operation or maintenance
thereof, and which do not unreasonably affect the conduct of
Tenant's business in the Premises or Tenant's use of the Premises.
Tenant shall have the right to institute an Expedited Arbitration
Proceeding to determine whether any additional Rule hereafter
adopted by Landlord complies with this Section 3.4 only by giving
written notice thereof to Landlord within thirty (30) days after
the date that Landlord gives Tenant written notice of Landlord's
adoption of any such additional Rule (it being understood that
Tenant shall not have any other right to dispute the compliance
with such standards by any such additional Rule hereafter adopted
by Landlord). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.4,
nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to impose upon
Landlord any obligation to enforce the Rules or the terms of any
other lease against any other tenant, and Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant for violation thereof by any other tenant.
Landlord shall not enforce any Rule against Tenant that Landlord is
not then enforcing against all other office tenants in the Office
Unit (or in the Office Unit One if the Office Unit One Owner is
then Landlord or its Affiliate) and shall not enforce any Rules in
a manner discriminatory to Tenant. If a conflict or inconsistency
exists between the Rules and the provisions of the remaining
portion of this Lease, then the provisions of the remaining portion
of this Lease shall control.
(B) If
(i) another occupant in the Building fails to comply with a
Rule that is applicable to Tenant under this Lease, and
(ii) such failure by such other occupant either
(a) violates the terms of a lease between such occupant and
its landlord, or (b) violates such other occupant's
obligations to the Condominium, (iii) such failure by such
other occupant has a material adverse effect on Tenant's ability to
conduct business in the Premises, (iv) Tenant is then in
compliance with such Rule, and (v) Tenant requested that
Landlord enforce Landlord's
rights against such other occupant
in respect of such failure (or, if such occupant is (x) an occupant
of a unit in the Condominium owned by an Affiliate of Landlord,
Tenant requested that Landlord cause such Affiliate to enforce such
Affiliate's rights, or (y) an occupant of a unit in the Condominium
not owned by Landlord and/or its Affiliates, Tenant requested that
Landlord cause the Condominium Board to enforce the Condominium's
rights), then Landlord shall use due diligence to enforce such
rights as aforesaid (or to cause its Affiliate or the Condominium
Board, as the case may be, to enforce such rights as aforesaid)
against such other occupant in respect of such failure (it being
agreed, however, that Landlord shall have no obligation to
institute a proceeding against such other occupant) promptly after
Tenant's request to Landlord therefor. Landlord shall consult (or
shall cause the Condominium Board to consult) from time to time
with Tenant in connection with Landlord's using due diligence (or
the Condominium's using due diligence) to enforce the aforesaid
rights of Landlord or the Condominium Board against such other
occupant as contemplated by this Section 3.4. Tenant agrees
that Landlord’s costs to enforce the rights described in this
Section 3.4 hereof shall constitute an Operating
Expense.
Subject to the terms of this Section
3.5, Tenant shall have the right to use (and to permit Permitted
Parties to use) at no additional cost (but subject, however, to
recoupment to the extent provided in Article 2 hereof) the fire
stairs serving the Premises, for purposes of permitting personnel
to move among the floors of the Building that comprise the Premises
(such fire stairs being referred to herein as the " Fire
Stairs "). A Permitted Party shall not have the right to use
the Fire Stairs as contemplated by this Section 3.5 to gain access
to the street adjacent to the Building (except in the event of an
emergency). Tenant shall use (or permit another Permitted Party to
use) the Fire Stairs only to the extent permitted by, and in a
manner that is consistent with, applicable Requirements. Tenant
shall not have the right to use the Fire Stairs in a manner that
prevents free passage therein from floors of the Building other
than the Premises. Nothing contained in this Section 3.5 diminishes
Landlord's right to make installations in the Fire Stairs to limit
Tenant's ability to gain access to portions of the Building (other
than the Premises) from the Fire Stairs. Tenant shall not have the
right to perform any Alterations in the Fire Stairs (except that
Tenant shall have the right to install, in accordance with Article
7 hereof and to the extent permitted by Requirements, (x) a
security system in the Fire Stairs that seeks to prevent
unauthorized persons from entering the Premises from the Fire
Stairs, and (y) reasonable finishes in the Fire Stairs (such
as floor covering, paint and lighting), in either case at Tenant's
expense). After the Commencement Date, Landlord, at Landlord's cost
and expense, shall install (x) photo-luminescent paint on the
treads and railings located in the Fire Stairs, and (y) two
(2) security gates in the Fire Stairs (one such gate to be
located in the Fire Stairs directly above the landing to the
twenty-ninth (29 th ) floor of the Building and one such
gate to be located in the Fire Stairs directly below the landing
thereof to the twenty-first (21 st ) floor of the
Building), which work Landlord shall perform in accordance with all
applicable Requirements and in a good and workerlike manner. The
aforesaid gates shall be locked in an effort to prevent
unauthorized access into the Fire Stairs that serve the Premises
between the twenty-first (21 st ) and twenty-ninth (29
th ) floors of the Building, and shall automatically
unlock in the event of an emergency.
(A) Subject
to the terms of this Section 3.6, Landlord hereby consents to
Tenant's installing and maintaining fuel lines, electrical lines,
telecommunications and computer lines and cabling, exhaust ducts
and flues or other similar lines, cabling, ducts, risers and
conduits or any other equipment that may be lawfully installed
therein (collectively, the " Risers ") in the shaft
locations shown on Exhibit "3.6" attached hereto and made a part
hereof, all at no additional charge to Tenant. If Tenant licenses
the Antennae Site in accordance with Section 3.9 hereof, then
Landlord consents to Tenant's installing and maintaining a Riser in
a shaft location reasonably designated by Landlord that runs from
the mechanical room (the " Antennae Mast Mechanical Room ")
that supports the Antennae Mast and the Antennae located on the
fifty-fourth (54 th ) floor of the Building to the
Premises. Landlord shall provide Tenant with access in accordance
with good construction practice at reasonable times and upon
reasonable advance notice for the installation, operation and
maintenance of the Risers, provided that such access shall
(i) not unreasonably interfere with or interrupt the operation
and maintenance of the Building, and (ii) be upon such other
terms reasonably designated by Landlord. Tenant shall install the
Risers at Tenant's expense (subject to Tenant's right to use a
portion of the Tenant Fund for such expense). Tenant shall perform
such installation in accordance with the provisions of this Lease,
including, without limitation, the provisions pertaining to the
performance of Alterations. If Tenant exercises Tenant's right to
install the Risers as contemplated by this Section 3.6, then
Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall maintain the Risers in good
condition during the Term. Tenant, upon the Expiration Date, shall
not be required to remove the Risers; provided, however, that
(i) Landlord reserves the right to require the Risers to be
disconnected, capped and sealed at Tenant's cost upon the
Expiration Date, and (ii) Landlord shall have the right to
require Tenant to remove the Risers upon the Expiration Date to the
extent required by any Requirement. Landlord shall use reasonable
efforts to provide Tenant with additional shaft locations in the
Building (in addition to those set forth on Exhibit "3.6" attached
hereto) if Tenant desires to install additional Risers, upon
Tenant's written request therefor and subject to there being riser
space that is then available in the Building.
(A) Subject
to the terms of this Section 3.7, Tenant shall have the right to
erect and maintain one (1) sign that identifies Tenant or its
Affiliate or its successor pursuant to Section 17.9 hereof as
an occupant of the Building (and for no other purpose) in the lobby
of the Building at the location described in, and in accordance
with the specifications described in, Exhibit "3.7-1" attached
hereto and made a part hereof (the " Lobby Sign "). Tenant
shall be permitted to erect and maintain the Lobby Sign only during
the period that the Minimum Demise Requirement is satisfied. At any
time that Tenant meets the Minimum Demise Requirement, Tenant may
elect to have the Lobby Sign identify, in lieu of Tenant (or its
Affiliate or successor as aforesaid), a Permitted Party that
subleases from Tenant at least eighty-eight thousand (88,000)
square feet of Rentable Area of the Premises. Tenant shall have the
right to replace the Lobby Sign that is depicted on Exhibit "3.7-1"
attached hereto provided that Tenant obtains Landlord's prior
written consent thereto (it being agreed that Landlord shall not
unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to any such
replacement Tenant's Sign if such replacement Tenant Sign is the
same size as the Tenant's Sign depicted on Exhibit "3.7-1" attached
hereto, and is the same color and made with the same materials as
the Tenant's Sign
depicted on Exhibit "3.7-1" attached
hereto). If Tenant no longer satisfies the Minimum Demise
Requirement, then Tenant shall not have the right to maintain the
Lobby Sign that is described on Exhibit "3.7-1" attached hereto (as
the Lobby Sign may have theretofore been replaced as aforesaid),
provided that Landlord, at Landlord's cost and expense, shall erect
a sign in a location in the lobby of the Building designated by
Landlord in Landlord's reasonable discretion that identifies Tenant
and that will indicate the elevator bank that accesses the Premises
(which sign shall be of a size that is proportionate to similar
signs erected by Landlord for other tenants or occupants of the
Office Unit, based on the relative square footage then leased by
Tenant and such other tenants or occupants).
(B) Tenant
shall have the right at any time during the Term to install a sign
on the exterior of the Building (the " Exterior Sign "; the
Lobby Sign and the Exterior Sign being collectively referred to
herein as " Tenant's Signs ") on the left hand column of the
entrance to the Lexington Avenue lobby of the Building, which
column is more particularly described on Exhibit "3.7-2" attached
hereto and made a part hereof. The dimensions of the Exterior Sign
shall be three (3) feet four (4) inches wide and six (6) inches
high. Landlord, in Landlord's sole discretion, shall have the right
to determine the exact location of the Exterior Sign on such
column, provided that such location determined by Landlord shall be
within the designated range depicted on Exhibit "3.7-2" attached
hereto, and the colors and materials that will comprise the
Exterior Sign. Tenant shall be permitted to erect and maintain the
Exterior Sign only during the period that Tenant leases the entire
Rentable Area of five (5) or more floors of the Building that
comprise the Premises on the date hereof. If (x) the Exterior Sign
is removed by virtue of Tenant no longer leasing five (5) or more
floors of the Building as aforesaid, (y) Tenant meets the Minimum
Demise Requirement, and (z) Landlord permits another tenant or
occupant in the Office Unit to install a sign on the aforesaid
column, then Tenant shall thereafter have the right to erect a sign
in a location on such column designated by Landlord that is similar
to such sign installed by such other tenant or occupant. The
Exterior Sign may only identify one (1) Person, which may be
Citibank, N.A. or Citigroup, Inc. or any successor of Citibank,
N.A. or Citigroup, Inc.
(C) Tenant's
installation of Tenant's Signs shall be performed at Tenant's cost
in accordance with the provisions set forth in Article 7 hereof.
Tenant shall not have the right to erect Tenant's Signs that would
create the impression in the mind of a reasonable person that the
Building is named for Tenant. Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall
operate, maintain and repair any Tenant's Signs that Tenant erects
pursuant to this Section 3.7 in accordance with customary standards
for first-class office buildings in the vicinity of the Building
and in compliance with all applicable Requirements. Tenant, at
Tenant's expense, shall remove Tenant's Signs promptly upon the
earlier to occur of (x) the Expiration Date, and (y) the
date that Tenant has no further right to erect or maintain Tenant's
Signs pursuant to this Section 3.7, and shall repair any damage
caused by the installation of Tenant's Signs or such
removal.

Antennae Roof Rights.
|
(A) Tenant
shall have the right to install Antennae on the antennae mast (the
" Antennae Mast ") installed by Landlord on the roof of the
Building for use solely by Tenant (or other Permitted Parties) (and
not for resale purposes) on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in this Section 3.9. At any time during the Term, Tenant
shall have the right to install two (2) Antennae on the Antennae
Mast (each of which shall be no larger than eighteen (18) inches in
diameter) (such two (2) Antennae being referred to herein as the "
Permitted Antennae "). Tenant shall give Landlord no less
than thirty (30) days prior written notice (the " Antennae
Notice ") of Tenant's election to install the Permitted
Antennae. Tenant shall describe in the Antennae Notice with
specificity the type of Antennae Tenant elects to install on the
Antennae Mast and the intended use thereof. The term "
Antennae " shall mean, collectively, any Tenant antennae or
antennaes, together with related equipment, mountings and supports,
installed on behalf of Tenant on the Antennae Mast in accordance
with this Section 3.9. At any time during the Term Tenant
shall have the right to install additional Antennae on the Antennae
Mast by giving Landlord written notice thereof, in which notice
Tenant shall set forth a description of the additional Antennae
that Tenant desires to install and the intended use thereof. If (x)
Landlord then has available space on the Antennae Mast to
accommodate the additional Antennae described in such notice, and
(y) Tenant has theretofore installed the Permitted Antennae, then
Tenant shall have the right to install the additional Antennae
described in such notice on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Section 3.9.
(B) Promptly
after the date that Landlord has sold or licensed for use
approximately seventy percent (70%) of the space on the Antennae
Mast, Landlord shall give Tenant a notice (the " Antennae
Availability Notice ") informing Tenant of the amount of space
that then remains on the Antennae Mast (such space being referred
to herein as the " Available Antennae Space "). Tenant has
the right to license all or any portion of the Available Antennae
Space by giving notice (the " Antennae Response Notice ")
thereof to Landlord no later than sixty (60) days after the date
Landlord gave the Antennae Availability Notice to Tenant. Time
shall be of the essence with respect to Tenant's giving the
Antennae Response Notice to Landlord no later than sixty (60) days
after the date Landlord gave the Antennae Availability Notice to
Tenant. Tenant shall describe with reasonable specificity in the
Antennae Response Notice the Antennae that Tenant proposes to
install on the Antennae Mast and the intended use of the Antennae
that Tenant proposes to install on the Antennae Mast. Landlord has
no obligation to give Tenant an Antennae Availability Notice if, at
the time approximately seventy percent (70%) of the space on the
Antennae Mast has been sold or licensed by Landlord, Tenant no
longer meets the Minimum Demise Requirement. If Tenant fails to
give Landlord an Antennae Response Notice, then Landlord may
thereafter license the remaining space on the Antennae Mast to any
Person without having any obligation to notify Tenant thereof;
subject, however, to Tenant’s right set forth in
Section 3.9(A) hereof to install the Permitted Antennae
without respect to whether seventy percent (70%) of the space on
the Antennae Mast has been sold or licensed by Landlord (i.e.,
sufficient space for the Permitted Antennae shall be reserved by
Landlord for Tenant).
(C) Landlord
shall have the right to reasonably designate the location of the
Antennae on the Antennae Mast (the area on the Antennae Mast so
reasonably designated by Landlord being referred to herein as the "
Antennae Site" ). Commencing on the date (the
" Antennae Commencement Date
") an Antennae is installed on the Antennae Mast, the amount of
space used thereon by any such Antennae shall be licensed by
Landlord to Tenant on the terms and conditions contained in this
Section 3.9. Landlord shall provide Tenant with riser space for the
Antennae pursuant to Section 3.6 hereof. If, on the Antennae
Commencement Date, there is electrical capacity available in the
Antennae Mast Mechanical Room for Tenant's use in operating the
Antennae, then Landlord shall make such electrical capacity
available to Tenant for such purpose. Tenant's use of any such
electricity shall be measured by submeter, installed by Landlord at
Landlord's expense, and computed and billed to Tenant in accordance
with the terms and provisions of Section 5.3 hereof. If, however,
on the Antennae Commencement Date, there is not sufficient
electrical capacity available as aforesaid, then Tenant, at
Tenant's cost and expense, shall have the right to run, in
accordance with the terms of this Lease, an electrical line from
the Premises to the Antennae Mast Mechanical Room for purposes of
operating the Antennae. Landlord (or, at Landlord's option, the
Mast Manager) shall perform, at Tenant's expense, the work
necessary to install the Antennae on the Antennae Mast, including
making any electrical connections with respect thereto (other than
running an electrical line from the Premises, if necessary, as
aforesaid). Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section
3.9, the Antennae shall be deemed for all purposes of this Lease to
be a Specialty Alteration. The rights granted to Tenant in this
Section 3.9 shall not be assignable by Tenant separate and apart
from this Lease.
(D) Landlord
may engage a third party (the " Mast Manager ") to perform
the construction, installation, maintenance or repair of the
Antennae on commercially reasonable terms. Tenant shall pay a fee
(the " License Fee ") to Landlord, as additional rent, for
Tenant's right to use the Antennae Site, and for the services of
the Mast Manager, in a monthly amount equal to the Fair Market Rent
therefor, payable in equal monthly installments in advance during
the Term from and after the Antenna Commencement Date. Landlord and
Tenant shall determine the Fair Market Rent of the Antennae Site in
accordance with the terms of Article 20 hereof. Tenant shall
promptly pay when due any tax, license, permit or other fees or
charges imposed pursuant to any Requirements relating to the
installation, maintenance or use of the Antennae.
(E) Landlord
retains the right to use the area in and around the Antennae Mast
for any reasonable purpose whatsoever provided that such use does
not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Antennae by Tenant
(or the applicable Permitted Party). If, after any Antennae is
installed on behalf of Tenant, it is discovered that such Antennae
interferes with (i) the reception or transmission of
communication signals by or from any antennae, satellite dishes or
similar equipment installed on the Antennae Mast or any other
location on the roof of the Building in either case prior to the
date that the Antennae is installed, or (ii) the operation of
the Building Systems, then Landlord shall cause the Mast Manager,
on Tenant's behalf and at Tenant's expense, to relocate the
Antennae to another area on the Antennae Mast or roof of the
Building reasonably designated by Landlord. If such interference
still occurs despite such relocation, and, despite Landlord's
diligent efforts, there exists no reasonably practicable site on
the Antennae Mast or on the roof of the Building for the relocation
of the Antennae, then Landlord shall cause the Mast Manager upon
prior notice to Tenant and at Tenant's expense, to promptly remove
the Antennae from the Antennae Mast or the roof of the Building, as
the case may be.
(F) If
any antennae or satellite dish installed on the Antennae Mast after
the date that Tenant's Antennae is installed thereon interferes
with the reception or transmission of communication signals by or
from the Antennae, then Landlord shall cause the Mast Manager to
relocate such antennae or satellite dish to another area on the
Antennae Mast or roof of the Building. If such interference still
occurs despite such relocation and despite Landlord's diligent
efforts, then Landlord shall cause the Mast Manager to promptly
remove such antennae or satellite dish from the Antennae Mast or
the roof of the Building.
(G) Neither
Landlord nor the Mast Manager shall have any obligation to cause
the Antennae to comply with Requirements (and, accordingly,
Landlord shall not be required to obtain or maintain any required
permits or licenses for the Antennae; provided, however, that
Landlord at Tenant's cost and expense, shall cooperate reasonably
with Tenant in connection with Tenant's obtaining any such permits
or licenses). Neither Landlord nor the Mast Manager shall be
responsible for any damage that is caused to Tenant or the Antennae
by any other tenant or occupants of the Building, or for any
interference or disturbance caused to the Antennae by any equipment
installed on or in the Building (subject to the provisions of
clause (E) of this Section 3.9) except to the extent of the
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, the Mast Manager, or
their employees, agents or contractors. Landlord makes no
representation that the Antennae will receive or transmit
communication signals without interference or disturbance and
Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant
therefor.
(H) The
license granted to Tenant under this Section 3.9 shall
automatically terminate and expire upon the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease.
(I) The
Mast Manager, at Tenant's expense, shall remove the Antennae from
the Antennae Site promptly after the date that Tenant's rights
under this Section 3.9 lapse or otherwise terminate. Any
installment of the License Fee paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder
in respect of any period of time after the date that Tenant so
removes the Antennae shall be credited by Landlord against Tenant's
next installments of Rental due hereunder.

Tenant has the right to install
wireless Internet voice and data systems and equipment in the
Premises using a provider selected by Tenant. Tenant shall not
solicit other occupants of the Building (i.e., outside the
Premises) to use wireless Internet service that emanates from the
Premises. Tenant shall not permit the signals of Tenant's wireless
Internet service (if any) to emanate beyond the Premises in a
manner that interferes in any material respect with any Building
Systems or with any other occupant's use of other portions of the
Building.

right to access (in accordance with the terms of Article 9 hereof)
the telephone and electric closets that comprise a portion of the
Premises and that are shown on Exhibit "3.11" attached hereto and
made a part hereof for purposes of Landlord's accessing Landlord's
equipment contained therein (including
fire alarm and security
installations and telecommunications risers). Tenant agrees not to
use, move, or otherwise disturb Landlord's equipment located in
such telephone closets.

Access to Beacon Court.
|
(A) Tenant
shall have the right to use, in common with the other occupants of
the Building, at least one (1) access lane in Beacon Court, solely
for the purpose of discharging and picking up passengers. Tenant
shall have such right to the use of Beacon Court twenty-four (24)
hours per day, seven (7) days per week. Tenant acknowledges that
Tenant's right to use Beacon Court as described in this Section
3.12 shall be subject to the Rules. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant
has no right to use the lobbies of the Building that open onto
Beacon Court (it being understood that Tenant has the right to use
only the lobby of the Building that opens onto Lexington Avenue)
except to the extent provided in the Access Agreement (the "
Access Agreement "), dated as of the date hereof, among
Landlord, Bloomberg and Tenant, a copy of which is annexed as
Exhibit "3.12" attached hereto and made a part hereof. Landlord
shall use due diligence to (and shall use due diligence to cause
the Condominium to) keep the access lane of Beacon Court reasonably
free of traffic and generally available for Tenant's use. Landlord
shall engage, or cause the Condominium to engage, an attendant to
assist with traffic flow through to the extent reasonably
necessary.
(B) If
Bloomberg fails to provide Tenant with access to the Beacon Court
Lobby as aforesaid in violation of the Access Agreement, then
Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to cause Bloomberg to comply
with the provisions of the Access Agreement, it being agreed,
however, that Landlord shall have no obligation to institute a
proceeding against Bloomberg in connection therewith. Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord, from time to time, for the reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection
with Landlord's using such reasonable efforts to cause Bloomberg to
comply with its obligations under the Access Agreement. Landlord
shall include in any such request for reimbursement reasonable
supporting information therefor. Landlord shall consult from time
to time with Tenant in connection with Landlord's using such
efforts to cause Bloomberg to comply with the provisions of the
Access Agreement as contemplated by this Section 3.12.
(A) Subject
to the terms of this Section 3.13, Landlord acknowledges that
Tenant shall have the right to install in the lobby of the
Building, in the location shown on Exhibit "3.13" attached hereto
and made a part hereof, a turnstile system to limit access to the
elevator bank that serves the Premises. Tenant shall not have the
right to install such turnstile system prior to obtaining
Landlord's consent to the specifications therefor, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant
shall perform such installation in accordance with the terms of
Section 3.13 hereof (including, without limitation, the provisions
thereof that require Tenant to obtain Landlord's prior consent to
such installation, which consent Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold, condition or delay). If (x) Tenant installs such
turnstile system in the lobby of the Building as contemplated by
this Section 3.13, and (y) at any time during the Term, this
Lease does not demise all of the Rentable Area that is served by
such elevator bank, then Tenant shall make reasonable arrangements
with Landlord and the occupants of the Rentable Area that is served
by such elevator bank to provide Landlord and such
occupants with access to the
turnstile system at all times. Landlord and Tenant shall use
reasonable efforts to arrange for each tenant that occupies any
Rentable Area served by such elevator bank to use a
security/identification card that coordinates with Tenant's
security system (and which would operate the turnstile system
installed by Tenant).
(B) From and
after the date that Tenant no longer meets the Minimum Demise
Requirement, Landlord, at Landlord's cost and expense, shall have
the right to remove the turnstile system installed by Tenant. If
Landlord so removes the turnstiles, then Landlord, at Landlord's
cost and expense, shall nonetheless be required to provide a
security system or procedure reasonably designed to prevent
unauthorized access into the passenger elevators that serve the
Premises that is comparable to the security systems or procedures
used or employed by landlords of comparable first-class buildings
located in midtown Manhattan.
(A) Subject
to the terms of this Section 3.14, Tenant acknowledges that
Landlord intends to construct (or to cause to be constructed) a
fitness center (the " Fitness Center ") on the twenty-ninth
(29 th ) floor of the Building for use by the
Residential Unit owners. Landlord shall construct (or cause to be
constructed) the Fitness Center in accordance with the plans and
specifications therefor in Exhibit "3.14" attached hereto and made
a part hereof (it being understood that Landlord shall have the
right to alter such plans and specifications to relocate the
equipment in the Fitness Center and to alter the configuration of
the Fitness Center, provided that such altered plans and
specifications provide for substantially the same construction
methods that are contemplated by the plans and specifications that
are attached hereto as Exhibit "3.14", so that, for example, if (i)
the plans and specification that are attached hereto as Exhibit
"3.14" provide for noise-dampening installations to accommodate
certain fitness equipment, and (ii) the Fitness Center is
reconfigured to relocate such fitness equipment, then Landlord
shall construct (or cause to be constructed) the Fitness Center in
a manner that relocates such noise-dampening installations to
reflect the aforesaid relocation of such fitness equipment). If,
after Landlord's completion of the Fitness Center, (x) Tenant
notifies Landlord that noise or vibrations emanating from the
Fitness Center to the portion of the Premises located on the
twenty-eighth (28 th ) floor of the Building are
disturbing beyond a de minimis extent Tenant's employees
working in such portion of the Premises, and (y) it is
determined that Landlord did not construct (or cause to be
constructed) the Fitness Center in substantial accordance with the
plans and specifications annexed as Exhibit "3.14" attached hereto,
then Landlord, at Landlord's cost and expense and with due
diligence, shall perform (or cause to be performed) in the Fitness
Center the work necessary to cause the Fitness Center to
substantially conform to such plans and specifications (but in no
event shall Landlord be obligated after receipt of Tenant's notice
to Landlord to perform any work in the Fitness Center that is in
addition to, or different from, the work described on such plans
and specifications).
(B) During
any period of time that Tenant meets the Minimum Demise Requirement
and upon prior notice from Tenant to Landlord, Tenant shall have
the right for up to twelve (12) of its employees to use the Fitness
Center in accordance with the rules and regulations established
therefor pursuant to the Condominium Documents. Each Tenant
employee that intends to use the Fitness Center shall enter into a
contract with the board of managers of the Residential Unit, which
contract shall govern such employee's use of the Fitness
Center (including the fees payable
for such use of the Fitness Center, which fees shall be in keeping
with the fees charged by owners or operators of fitness centers in
first-class office Buildings in midtown Manhattan).
(C) Landlord,
at Landlord's cost and expense and in a location reasonably
designated by Landlord, shall install a door in the common corridor
on the twenty-ninth (29 th ) floor of the Building in an
effort to reduce the likelihood of Residential Unit owners who are
using the Fitness Center from entering any of the passenger
elevators on such floor that service the Premises and gaining
unauthorized access to the Premises, which door shall be secured by
a card reader system. Landlord shall perform such work in a good
workerlike manner with due diligence from and after the
Commencement Date.
The floors loads for each floor of
the Building that comprises the Premises (or any portion thereof)
are described on Exhibit "3.15" attached hereto and made a part
hereof.

(i.e., no advance scheduling), subject to Tenant's right to use the
freight elevators on a reserved basis during Overtime Periods.
Landlord shall have the right to prescribe reasonable rules from
time to time regarding the rights of the occupants in the Building
(including, without limitation, Tenant) to use the freight
elevators (governing, for example, the responsibility of occupants
of the Building to reserve freight elevator use in advance,
particularly for Overtime Periods). Tenant shall use the freight
elevators in accordance with applicable Requirements. Subject to
Section 4.3(B) hereof, if Tenant uses the freight elevator
during Overtime Periods, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
additional rent, an amount calculated at the reasonable hourly
rates that Landlord charges from time to time therefor, within
thirty (30) days after Landlord's giving to Tenant an invoice
therefor.
(B) Landlord
and Tenant acknowledge and agree that two (2) freight elevators are
required to bring freight in and out of the Premises: (i) the
freight elevator located at the loading dock of the Building (the "
Initial Freight Car "); and (ii) the freight elevator
located on lower level 3 of the Building (the " Secondary
Freight Car "; the Initial Freight Car and the Secondary
Freight Car being referred to herein collectively as the "freight
elevators"). The hourly charge for each of the freight elevators
used during Overtime Periods is an amount equal to the product of
(x) one hundred forty-five percent (145%), and (y) the
hourly cost of a Local 32 B-J elevator operator in effect from time
to time (the " 32 B-J Hourly Rate "). As of the date of this
Lease, the 32B-J Hourly Rate is Fifty-Five Dollars ($55), which,
when multiplied by one hundred forty-five percent (145%), results
in an hourly charge for each freight elevator used during Overtime
Periods of Seventy-Nine Dollars and 75/100 Cents ($79.75). Landlord
shall have the right to charge Tenant for a particular minimum
number of hours of usage of the freight elevator during Overtime
Periods to the extent that the applicable union contract or service
contract requires Landlord to engage the necessary personnel
(including, without limitation, a freight elevator operator and
loading dock attendant) for such minimum number of overtime hours
(which minimum number of hours as of the date hereof is four (4)).
If (x) Tenant requests Landlord to provide Tenant with freight
elevator service during Overtime Periods as provided in this
Section 4.3, and (y) another tenant in the Building also uses,
or other tenants in the Building also use, the applicable freight
elevators during such Overtime Period, then Landlord shall allocate
equitably the charges described in this Section 4.3 among Tenant
and such other tenant or tenants (taking into account the
differences in the costs to Tenant as provided in this Section
4.3(B) hereof and the charges to such other tenant or
tenants).
(C) Tenant
acknowledges that the labor unions involved in the construction of
the Building may require Landlord through the date such unions are
no longer actively working in the Building to operate the freight
elevators in the Building using union labor personnel ("
Construction Union Personnel ") other than Local 32 B-J,
which is the labor union that currently operates such freight
elevators following the completion of Building construction. If the
Construction Union Personnel are operating the freight elevators
during Business Hours, then, if Tenant uses the freight elevators
for construction during Business Hours, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the excess of the hourly rates paid by Landlord for the
Construction Union Personnel over the 32 B-J Hourly Rate, in each
case without any markup. If (i) Tenant uses the freight
elevators during Overtime Periods, and (ii) Construction Union
Personnel operate the freight elevators at such time, then Tenant
shall pay, subject to Section 4.3(D) hereof, the hourly rates
paid by Landlord to the applicable union for the Construction Union
Personnel during such Overtime Periods, without any markup, in lieu
of the rates set forth in Section 4.3(B) hereof (it being agreed
that Landlord shall still have the right to charge Tenant for a
minimum number of hours, as aforesaid, to the extent required by
the union contract of the union employing the Construction Union
Personnel).
(D) Tenant
shall not be required to pay for the first two hundred (200) hours
of freight elevator use during Overtime Periods solely in
connection with Tenant's use of the freight elevators for its
Initial Alterations and Tenant's initial move into the Premises (it
being understood that if Tenant uses the Initial Freight Car and
the Secondary Freight Car, then Tenant shall be charged for two (2)
hours of freight elevator use); provided, however, that if
Construction Union Personnel are operating the freight elevators
during any such Overtime Periods, then Tenant shall pay the excess
of the hourly rates actually paid by Landlord to the
applicable union for the
Construction Union Personnel over the 32 B-J Hourly Rate, in each
case without any markup. Tenant shall nonetheless use reasonable
efforts to schedule and use the freight elevators during
non-Overtime Periods in connection with the performance of its
Initial Alterations in an effort to minimize the number of hours of
freight elevator use during Overtime Periods that would otherwise
be required.
(E) Subject
to Section 4.15 hereof, Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense,
shall have the right to provide Tenant's own security guard to
monitor Tenant's activity solely in the freight elevators and in
the aforesaid loading dock and truck elevator areas, it being
expressly agreed that any such security guard shall in no event be
permitted to operate a freight elevator.

4.4.
|
Heat, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning.
|
(A) Subject
to the terms of Article 10 hereof and this Section 4.4, Landlord
shall operate the HVAC System to provide HVAC at the perimeter of
the Premises that satisfies, at a minimum, the specifications set
forth on Exhibit "4.4" attached hereto and made a part hereof.
Landlord shall not be required to make any installations in the
Premises to distribute HVAC within the Premises. Landlord shall
have no liability to Tenant if Landlord cannot meet the HVAC
specifications set forth on Exhibit "4.4" attached hereto if
such failure is caused by virtue of Tenant's failure to keep closed
the curtains, blinds, shades or screens that Tenant installs on the
windows of the Premises in accordance with the terms hereof to the
extent reasonably necessary to reduce the interference of direct
sunlight with the operation of the HVAC System.
(B) Landlord
shall operate the HVAC Systems at all times during Building Hours
without additional charge to Tenant. Landlord shall operate the
HVAC System for Tenant's benefit during Overtime Periods if Tenant
so advises Landlord not later than 02:00 pm of the Business
Day immediately preceding the day on which Tenant requires HVAC
during Overtime Periods (it being agreed that Landlord intends to
provide to Tenant, at no additional charge, software for use on
Tenant's computer system, which enables Tenant to order from its
computer system such HVAC during Overtime Periods and to order and
monitor certain other services provided in the Building). If
Landlord so provides HVAC to the Premises during Overtime Periods
(as so requested by Tenant), then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
additional rent, an amount calculated at the hourly rate of
Twenty-Five Dollars and No Cents ($25.00) for all or any floors for
which Tenant orders HVAC during Overtime Periods (i.e., not a per
floor charge), which amount shall be adjusted on January 1st
of each calendar year occurring during the Term commencing on
January 1, 2006 to equal an amount equal to the product
obtained by multiplying (I) Twenty-Five Dollars ($25), by (II) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Consumer Price Index for
November of the immediately preceding calendar year, and the
denominator of which is the Consumer Price Index on the date
hereof, within thirty (30) days after Landlord gives to Tenant an
invoice therefor. If (i) Tenant requests HVAC during a
particular Overtime Period, and (ii) such HVAC is
automatically provided to other leaseable areas in the Building by
virtue of the HVAC zoning in the Building, then the aforesaid
charge for HVAC shall be appropriately prorated between Tenant and
any occupant or occupants of such leaseable area who also ordered
HVAC during such Overtime Period (or any portion
thereof).
(A) Subject
to the terms of Article 10 hereof and this Section 4.5, Landlord
shall cause the Premises to be cleaned substantially in accordance
with the standards set forth in Exhibit "4.5" attached hereto and
made a part hereof. Landlord shall not be required to clean the
portions of the Premises (if any) that Tenant uses for the storage,
preparation, service or consumption of food or beverages. Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, the actual costs paid by
Landlord to a third party in removing from the Building any of
Tenant's refuse and rubbish to the extent exceeding the amount of
refuse and rubbish usually generated by a tenant that uses the
Premises for ordinary office purposes. Tenant shall make such
payments to Landlord not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after
the date that Landlord gives to Tenant an invoice therefor from
time to time, which invoice shall have annexed thereto
documentation that reasonably substantiates the charges set forth
thereon. If the cleaning specifications set forth on Exhibit "4.5"
attached hereto are not consistently and materially met by
Landlord's cleaning contractor, then Landlord, upon Tenant's
request therefor from time to time, shall cause its Building
management personnel to meet with Tenant in an effort to develop a
solution so that the cleaning specifications are thereafter
consistently and materially met.
(B) Tenant,
at Tenant's expense, shall exterminate the portions of the Premises
that Tenant uses for the storage, preparation, service or
consumption of food against infestation by insects and vermin
regularly and, in addition, whenever there is evidence of
infestation. Tenant shall engage Persons to perform such
exterminating that are approved by Landlord, which approval
Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay.
Tenant shall cause such Persons to perform such exterminating in a
manner that is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.
(C) Tenant,
at Tenant's expense, shall clean daily all portions of the Premises
used for the storage, preparation, service or consumption of food
or beverages. Tenant shall not have the right to perform any
cleaning services in the Premises using any contractor other than
the cleaning contractor that Landlord has engaged from time to time
to perform cleaning services in the Building for Landlord;
provided, however, that (x) Landlord shall not have the right
to require Tenant to use such cleaning contractor unless the rates
that such cleaning contractor agrees to charge Tenant for such
additional cleaning services are competitive with the amounts
charged by other cleaning companies that provide services to
comparable buildings for comparable services, and (z) subject
to Section 4.15 hereof, Tenant shall have the right to use Tenant's
own employees for such additional cleaning services. If such
cleaning contractor does not agree to charge Tenant for such
additional cleaning services at competitive rates as aforesaid,
then Tenant may employ to perform such additional cleaning services
another cleaning contractor that Landlord approves, which approval
Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay.
Subject to Section 4.15 hereof, Landlord and Tenant shall
cooperate with one another in ensuring that the cleaning performed
by any cleaning contractor selected by Tenant in accordance with
this Section 4.5, does not result in labor disharmony with
Landlord's cleaning contractor.
(D) Landlord
consents to Tenant using no more than four (4) Tenant employees (or
four (4) employees of Tenant's facilities manager) to perform
certain services in the Premises for Tenant's senior executives,
which services shall be limited to setting up offices
and conference rooms for meetings
and the cleaning of same, stocking pantries, serving beverages, and
other similar and related services, as long as the provision of
such services does not result in any labor disharmony. Tenant
agrees that it shall be required to use Local 32 B-J personnel
employed by Landlord's cleaning contractor to perform certain
handyman type services in the Premises, such as hanging pictures,
performing minor carpentry repair work, etc., which services shall
be ordered and paid for by Tenant. Landlord shall use reasonable
efforts to ensure that Tenant's needs with respect to such services
are promptly met taking into account the needs of other occupants
of the Building at any given time. If Tenant's needs for handyman
services in the Premises are such that Tenant requires a dedicated
person or persons, then Tenant can hire one or more of the Local 32
B-J personnel employed by Landlord's cleaning contractor. Landlord
shall assist Tenant in selecting any such union personnel and shall
perform any testing and background checks to the full extent that
is permitted by Local 32 B-J's then current union
contract.
(E) Tenant's
cleaning contractors that meet the requirements of this Article 4
shall be permitted without charge to use the janitorial closets
located on each floor of the Premises and the passenger and freight
elevators in the Building (but may not use the freight elevators
during Overtime Periods). Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to
cause any cleaning contractor that cleans the Premises (other than
cleaning contractors selected by Tenant) to keep the entry doors to
the Premises locked when such contractor is cleaning the Premises
and to turn off the lights in each portion of the Premises when
such contractor has finished cleaning such portion of the Premises
(to the extent that the lights in the Premises do not automatically
shut-off).
(F) Tenant
shall comply with any refuse disposal program (including, without
limitation, any waste recycling program) that Landlord imposes
reasonably upon not less than twenty (20) days of prior written
notice from Landlord to Tenant or that is required by
Requirements.
(G) Tenant
shall not clean any window in the Premises, nor require, permit,
suffer or allow any window in the Premises to be cleaned, in either
case from the outside in violation of Section 202 of the New York
Labor Law, any other Requirement, or the rules of the Board of
Standards and Appeals, or of any other board or body having or
asserting jurisdiction.
Landlord shall provide to the
lavatories located in the portion of the Premises that is within
the core of the Building hot and cold water only for ordinary
drinking, cleaning and lavatory purposes at no additional charge to
Tenant. Landlord shall also provide, through the Building Systems
and a copper supply line that is two (2) inches in diameter, cold
water at one (1) connection point at the perimeter of the Premises
on each floor of the Building for use by Tenant for its cold water
needs outside of the core of the Building (at no additional charge
to Tenant) and for use in any cafeteria in the Premises constructed
by Tenant (which may be metered pursuant to this Section 4.6 and
paid for by Tenant). Landlord shall not be required to make any
installations in the Premises to distribute water within the
Premises. Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense and subject to there
then being sufficient capacity that will not otherwise adversely
affect the other occupants of the twenty-ninth (29 th )
floor of the Building,
shall have the right to tap-in to
the water heaters to the extent located in the Premises solely for
use in Tenant's private restrooms (it being agreed that any such
tap-in shall be deemed an Alteration that shall be governed in
accordance with Article 7 hereof). Nothing contained in this
Section 4.6 limits the provisions of Article 10 hereof. Landlord,
at Tenant's cost and expense, shall have the right to install a
meter to measure Tenant's consumption of water used by Tenant for
any cafeteria in the Premises at Landlord's cost without any
markup. Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense, shall maintain and
repair any such meter. Tenant shall pay at Landlord's cost without
any markup for water provided to any such cafeteria as measured by
such meter, as additional rent hereunder, on or prior to thirty
(30) days after Landlord's rendition of a statement therefor (which
statements shall not be given to Tenant more frequently than
monthly and shall have annexed thereto documentation that
reasonably substantiates the charges set forth thereon).
