the appointment of a receiver or trustee for Tenant, for any substantial part of Tenant's assets or the institution of any proceedings for the dissolution, or the full or partial liquidation, or the merger or consolidation, of Tenant; provided, however, that if such appointment or commencement of proceedings is involuntary, such action shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such appointment is not revoked or such proceedings are not dismissed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the commencement thereof; and

If Tenant defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall have ten (10) business days after written notice of default from the City to cure the default, or forthwith for a default involving sanitary or safety conditions and maintaining insurance required under this Lease, or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to remedy such default provided Tenant promptly commences such cure and thereafter continuously and diligently pursues such remedy to completion, and so long as continuation of the default does not create material risk to the Premises or to persons using the Premises.
Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs, and is not cured in the time period provided for in Section 14.2 above, the City, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity, shall have the right, without any further notice to Tenant, to terminate this Lease. Upon termination of the Lease, Tenant shall peaceably surrender possession and vacate the Premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to the City in accordance with all of the requirements of this Lease with regard to termination, and Tenant hereby grants to the City the full and free right to enter into and upon the Premises and to repossess the Premises as the City's former estate and to expel or remove Tenant and any others who may be occupying the Premises, without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction, or forcible entry or detainer, without incurring any liability for any damage resulting therefrom and without relinquishing any right given the City hereunder or by operation of law.

No Waiver. No waiver by the City with respect to any specific default by Tenant shall be deemed to be a waiver of the rights of the City with respect to any other defaults of Tenant, nor shall any forbearance by the City to seek a remedy for any breach or default be deemed a waiver of its rights and remedies with respect to such breach or default, nor shall the City be deemed to have waived any of its rights and remedies unless such waiver is in writing. The acceptance by the City of any payment due hereunder after the termination by the City of this Lease, shall not, in the absence of agreement in writing to the contrary by the City, be deemed to restore this Lease or Tenant's rights hereunder, as the case may be, but shall be construed as a payment on account, and not in satisfaction of damages due from Tenant to the City.
SECTION 15. COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT. The City covenants and agrees that Tenant, upon paying the Rent and upon observing and keeping the covenants, agreements and conditions of this Lease on its part to be kept, observed and performed, shall peaceably and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises (subject to the provisions of this Lease) during the Term.

If Tenant does not remove its Improvements from the Premises as aforesaid, the City may, at its option, remove the same and deliver such property to any other place of business of Tenant or warehouse the same and restore the Premises pursuant to the requirements of this Lease, or the City may treat such Improvements as being conveyed to the City with this Lease as through a bill of sale, without further payment or credit by the City to Tenant, or the City may sell, destroy, or otherwise dispose of such Improvements without notice to Tenant or to any other person and without obligation to account for such property. Tenant agrees to pay for any removal, delivery, warehousing or disposal costs the City may incur, including without limitation, the cost of repairing any damage to the Premises, on demand, with interest accruing from the date of such City payment at the rate of 12% per annum.

LEASE NO. 20376
16.2 Holding Over. Tenant shall have no right to occupy the Premises or any portion thereof after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, except in connection with the removal of Tenant's Improvements under Section 16.1. Any such holding over by Tenant shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, and Tenant shall be liable for all damages, direct and consequential, incurred by the City as a result of such holdover. For each month or portion thereof Tenant retains possession of the Premises, or any portion thereof, after the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay the City an amount equal to the fair market rental value of the Premises at that time, as reasonably determined by the City. Acceptance of said rent shall not constitute a waiver by the City of any re-entry or other rights provided for under this Lease or by Law nor shall it be deemed an extension or renewal of the Term without a written election thereof by the City. During such holding over all provisions of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.

During the period while this Lease is executory, Tenant's, any general contractor's or any subcontractor's violation of the Waste Sections, whether or not relating to the performance of this Lease, constitutes a breach of and an event of default under this Lease, for which the opportunity to cure, if curable, will be granted only at the sole designation of the Chief Procurement Officer.

Among other things, the 2014 City Hiring Plan prohibits the City from hiring persons as governmental employees in non-exempt positions on the basis of political reasons or factors.

Accordingly, Tenant must follow its own hiring and contracting procedures, without being influenced by the City or City employees. Any and all personnel provided by Tenant under this Lease are employees or subcontractors of Tenant, not employees of the City. This Lease is not intended to and does not constitute, create, give rise to, or otherwise recognize an employer-employee relationship of any kind between the City and any personnel provided by Tenant.

Individual political activities are the activities of individual persons in support of or in opposition to political organizations or parties or candidates for elected public office.
In the event of any communication to Tenant by a City employee or City official in violation of paragraph (ii) above, or advocating a violation of paragraph (iii) above, Tenant will, as soon as is reasonably practicable, report such communication to the Hiring Oversight Section of the City's Office of the Inspector General ("OIG Hiring Oversight"), and also to the head of the relevant City department utilizing services provided under this Lease. Tenant will also cooperate with any inquiries by OIG Hiring Oversight.

For the purpose of this Exhibit D, the term "contractors" shall also include licensees occupying the Premises:
Workers Compensation and Employers Liability Insurance. Tenant shall be insured (and shall require that each of its contractors and subcontractors are insured) against liability for workers' compensation and employers' risk as prescribed by applicable Law before commencing the performance of any Work on or about the Premises or otherwise in relation to this Lease.

Commercial General Liability insurance, insuring against any and all liability of the City and Tenant including, without limitation, coverage for Premises and Operations, Products and Completed Operations, Blanket Contractual Liability, Broad Form Property Damage, and Personal Injury, with limits of not less than $5.000.000 Combined Single Limit for bodily injury and property damage. Umbrella or Excess Liability coverages may be used to supplement primary coverages to meet required limits. Such insurance will insure the performance by Tenant of the indemnity agreement as to liability for injury to or death of persons and damage to property set forth in Section 11 of this Lease. Such insurance will be noncontributing with any insurance which may be carried by the City and will contain a provision that City, although named as an insured, will nevertheless be entitled to recover under the policy for any loss, injury, or damage to the City, its agents, and employees, or the property of such persons. Such insurance policy shall include a Severability of Interest or Cross Liability clause such as "The policy to which this endorsement is attached shall apply separately to each insured against whom a claim is brought, except with respect to the limits of the company's liability." The City of Chicago, its employees, elected officials, agents, and representatives are to be named as additional insureds on a primary, non-contributory basis for any liability arising directly or indirectly from the Lease.
Automobile Liability Insurance. (Primary and Umbrella). When any motor vehicles (owned, non-owned and hired) are used in connection with Work to be performed. Tenant shall provide Comprehensive Automobile Liability Insurance with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, for bodily injury and property damage.
Coverage of the Premises. Insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Premises, in an amount consistent with what a prudent operator of a comparable property
would carry providing replacement cost coverage for perils typically insured against in an Illinois standard form fire insurance policy, which in no event shall be less than those perils covered by ISO Causes of Loss-Special Form property insurance (formerly known as "All-Risk"). The replacement cost of the Premises shall be determined in accordance with the standard practices of the insurance industry and evidenced by the certificate of the insurance company or companies issuing such insurance at the time the policy or policies are obtained. The policy shall list the City of Chicago as an additional insured and loss payee.
All Risk Builders Risk Insurance. Before commencing any construction, including improvements, betterments or repairs, Tenant shall provide All Risk Builders Risk Insurance, at replacement cost, for all materials, supplies, equipment, machinery and fixtures that are or will be part of the Building. Coverage shall include but not be limited to the following: right to partial occupancy, earth movement, flood including surface water backup and sewer backup and seepage, vandalism and malicious mischief. The City of Chicago shall be named as an additional insured and loss payee. Said insurance shall remain in full force and effect until the improvements shall have been completed and fully insured as provided in this Exhibit D. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant shall have no obligation to maintain All Risk Builders Risk Insurance during any period which there is no construction being performed on the Premises.
Professional Liability. When any architects, engineers, construction managers or other professional consultants perform work or services on the Premises, Professional Liability Insurance covering acts, errors, or omissions must be maintained with limits of not less than $1,000,000. When policies are renewed or replaced, the policy retroactive date must coincide with, or precede start of work on the Agreement. A claims-made policy which is not renewed or replaced must have an extended reporting period of two (2) years.
Contractors Pollution Liability. When any environmental site investigation or remediation work is performed that may cause a pollution exposure, Contractors Pollution Liability must be provided covering bodily injury, property damage and other losses caused by pollution conditions that arise from the such activities with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence. Coverage must include completed operations, contractual liability, defense, excavation, environmental cleanup, remediation and disposal.

Other Terms of Insurance.
1) Tenant will furnish the City of Chicago, Department of Assets, Information & Services, Office of Real Estate Management, Suite 200, 2 North LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60602, original Certificates of Insurance evidencing the required coverage to be in force on the date of this Lease, and Renewal Certificates of Insurance, or such similar evidence, if the coverages have an expiration or renewal date occurring during the Term of
this Lease. Tenant shall submit evidence on insurance prior to occupancy of the Premises. The receipt of any certificates does not constitute agreement by the City that the insurance requirements in the Lease have been fully met or that the insurance policies indicated on the certificate are in compliance with all Lease requirements. The failure of City to obtain certificates or other evidence of insurance from Tenant shall not be deemed to be a waiver by the City. Tenant shall advise all insurers of the provisions in this Lease regarding insurance. Non-conforming insurance shall not relieve Tenant of its obligation to provide insurance as specified herein.
The insurer shall provide the City prior written notice of at least sixty (60) days if the insurer elects to cancel insurance before the stated expiration date, or declines to renew in the case of a continuous policy, or materially reduces the coverage period by changing the retroactive date (if any), or the extended discovery period (if any), or reduces the stated limits other than by impairment of an aggregate limit, or materially reduces the scope of coverage.
Any and all deductibles or self-insured retentions on referenced insurance coverages shall be borne by Tenant.
To the maximum extent permitted by Law, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant hereby releases the City and its officers, employees and agents from any and all liability or responsibility (to Tenant or anyone claiming through or under Tenant by way of subrogation or otherwise) for any loss or damage to the extent that such loss or damage is covered, or is required to be covered under this Lease, even if such loss or damage is caused by the fault or negligence of the City or anyone for whom the City may be responsible. Tenant will notify its insurers of this agreement. For clarity, and without limiting the foregoing, all loss or damage resulting from risks that Tenant is required or has elected to insure shall be subject to this waiver of subrogation.
Tenant expressly understands and agrees that any coverages and limits furnished by Tenant shall in no way limit Tenant's liabilities and responsibilities specified within this Lease or by law.
Tenant expressly understands and agrees that any insurance or self-insurance programs maintained by the City shall apply in excess of and not contribute with insurance provided by Tenant under this Lease.
The required insurance shall not be limited by any limitations expressed in the indemnification language herein or any limitation placed on the indemnity therein given as a matter of law.
The City of Chicago, Department of Finance, Office of Risk Management, maintains the right at any time during the Term of this Lease to change the amounts and types of insurance required hereunder.
If any of the required insurance coverages contain aggregate limits, or apply to other operations or tenancies outside this Lease, Tenant shall give the City prompt, written
notice of any incident, occurrence, claim, settlement, or judgment against such insurance which in Tenant's best judgment may diminish the protection such insurance affords the City. Tenant shall further take immediate steps to restore such aggregate limits or shall provide other insurance protection for such aggregate limits.
Tenant shall be responsible for all loss or damage to Tenant's personal property (including but not limited to Improvements, materials, equipment, tools and supplies).
Tenant's failure to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of this Lease under which the City may immediately terminate this Lease, or, at its discretion, procure or renew such insurance to protect its interest and pay any and all premiums in connection therewith, and recover all monies so paid from Tenant. If the City elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant agrees to promptly cease all operations and activities under this Lease and to peacefully surrender the Premises.
