CASUALTY

15.1. Notice.

Tenant shall notify Landlord promptly of any fire or other casualty that occurs in the Premises.

15.2. Landlord’s Restoration Obligations.

Subject to the terms of this Section 15.2, Landlord, with reasonable diligence, shall repair the damage to (i) the Premises (including, without limitation, the Alterations), (ii) the Building Systems that service the Premises, and (iii) the common elements of the Building that Tenant uses to gain access to the Premises, in each case to the extent caused by fire or other casualty. The restoration work to be performed by Landlord shall include, without limitation, any portion of Landlord’s Work that Landlord did not Substantially Complete on the date that the fire or other casualty occurred. Landlord shall commence the performance of such repairs as promptly as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of such fire or other casualty. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform such repairs diligently, in a good and workmanlike manner, and in a manner that minimizes to the extent reasonably practicable interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of any portion of the Premises that remains tenantable. Landlord shall not be required to restore Tenant’s Property or the Specialty Alterations. Landlord shall not be required to commence such restoration until Tenant gives Landlord the notice described in Section 15.1 hereof (unless Landlord otherwise has received actual notice of the fire or other casualty). Landlord shall not be obligated to restore any Alterations unless (i) Tenant has Substantially Completed the performance thereof, (ii) Tenant has given Landlord notice to the effect that Tenant has Substantially Completed such Alterations, (iii) Tenant has given Landlord notice of the cost incurred by Tenant in performing such Alterations, and (iv) Tenant has maintained records with respect to such Alterations in a form that allows Landlord to make a full insurance recovery therefor under Landlord’s Property Policy. If (x) Tenant, as part of the Initial Alterations, demolishes all or a material part of the interior installation that exists in the Premises on the Commencement Date, and (y) the Premises (including any Alterations) is damaged by fire or other casualty at any time prior to the date that Tenant Substantially Completes the Initial Alterations therein, then Landlord’s obligation to repair the Premises (and any Alterations) shall be limited to (w) the performance of Landlord’s Work (to the extent that the performance of Landlord’s Work remains feasible after such fire or other casualty), (x) the part of the Building Systems serving the Premises on the Commencement Date, but not the distribution portions of such Building Systems located within the Premises, (y) the floor and ceiling slabs of the Premises, and (z) the exterior walls of the Premises, all to substantially the same condition that existed on the Commencement Date. Landlord shall have the right to adapt the restoration of the Premises as contemplated by this Section 15.2 to comply with applicable Requirements that are then in effect. Landlord shall not be obligated to restore the Premises as provided in this Section 15.2 to the extent that this Lease terminates by reason of such fire or other casualty as provided in this Article 15.

15.3. Rent Abatement.

(A) The Fixed Rent and the Tax Payment that is otherwise due and payable hereunder shall not be reduced by reason of a fire or other casualty (and, accordingly, Tenant shall remain obligated to pay the Fixed Rentand the Tax Payment that comes due hereunder during the period that Landlord is performing the restoration work described in Section 15.2 hereof).

15.4. Landlord’s Termination Right.

If the Building is so damaged by fire or other casualty that, in Landlord’s opinion, substantial alteration, demolition, or reconstruction of the Building is required (regardless of whether the Premises have been damaged or rendered untenantable), then Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice thereof on or prior to the ninetieth (90th) day after such fire or other casualty. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease as aforesaid, then (I) the Term shall expire on a date set by Landlord that (A) is not sooner than (i) the tenth (10th) day after the date that Landlord gives such notice (if all or substantially all of the Premises is rendered untenantable by such fire or other casualty), and (ii) the ninetieth (90th) day after the date that Landlord gives such notice (if less than all or substantially all of the Premises is rendered untenantable by such fire or other casualty), and (B) is not later than the first (1^st) anniversary of the date on which such fire or other casualty occurs, and (II) Tenant, on such date set by Landlord, shall vacate the Premises and surrender the Premises to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease that govern Tenant’s obligations upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. Upon the termination of this Lease under this Section 15.4, the Rental shall be apportioned and any prepaid portion of the Rental for any period after the Expiration Date shall be refunded promptly by Landlord to Tenant (and Landlord’s obligation to make such refund shall survive the Expiration Date).

15.5. Tenant’s Termination Right.

(A) Landlord, within forty-five (45) days after the earlier to occur of (x) the date that Tenant gives Landlord notice of the occurrence of a fire or other casualty as contemplated by Section 15.1 hereof, and (y) the date that Landlord otherwise has actual notice of such fire or other casualty, shall give to Tenant a statement prepared by a reputable and independent contractor setting forth such contractor’s estimate in good faith as to the time required for Landlord to Substantially Complete the restoration described in Section 15.2 hereof (such statement that Landlord gives to Tenant being referred to herein as the “Casualty Statement”); provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to give Tenant a Casualty Statement if Landlord has theretofore exercised Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease under Section 15.4 hereof. If the estimated time period as set forth in the Casualty Statement exceeds one (1) year from the date of the applicable fire or other casualty, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Landlord not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the date that Landlord gives the Casualty Statement to Tenant. If Tenant makes such election to so terminate this Lease, then the Term shall expire on the thirtieth (30th) day after Tenant gives such notice to Landlord.

(C) If the Term terminates as provided in this Section 15.5, then (I) Tenant shall vacate the Premises and surrender the Premises to Landlord on the date of such termination “as is” and otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Lease that govern Tenant’s obligations upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, (II) any Rental due hereunder shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination, and (III) any portion of the Rental that is then prepaid by Tenant and relates to the period after the date that the abatement of Rental as described in Section 15.3 hereof becomes effective shall be promptly refunded by Landlord to Tenant (with the understanding that Landlord’s obligation to make any such refund shall survive such termination of this Lease).

15.6. Termination Rights at End of Term.

If the Premises are substantially damaged by a fire or other casualty that occurs during the period of twelve (12) months immediately preceding the Fixed Expiration Date, then either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by notice given to the other party within thirty (30) days after such fire or other casualty occurs. If either party makes such election, then the Term shall expire on the thirtieth (30th) day after the notice of such election is given, and, accordingly, Tenant, on or prior to such thirtieth (30th) day, shall vacate the Premises and surrender the Premises to Landlord in accordance with the provisions of this Lease that govern Tenant’s obligation to deliver vacant and exclusive possession of the Premises to Landlord upon the expiration of the Term. Upon the termination of this Lease under this Section 15.6, the Rental shall be apportioned and any prepaid portion of the Rental for any period after the Expiration Date shall be refunded promptly by Landlord to Tenant (and Landlord’s obligation to make such refund shall survive the Expiration Date). For purposes of this Section 15.6, the term “substantially damaged” shall mean that: (a) a fire or other casualty precludes Tenant from using more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises for the conduct of its business, and (b) Tenant’s inability to so use the Premises (or the applicable portion thereof) is reasonably expected to continue until at least the earlier to occur of (i) the Fixed Expiration Date, and (ii) the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the date that such fire or other casualty occurs.
