Furthermore, the Lessee confirms that installation of the electrical systems in the Leasehold and connection of the Leasehold to the grid is subject to a contractual engagement between it and the Lessor and/or the Management Company, all as the case may be, regarding the installation of meters, and any related payment applies to the Lessee.

The Lessor undertakes to cooperate with the Lessee in obtaining the provision of services by Bezeq or another communication provider to the Leasehold and will sign all documents required by Bezeq and/or the other communication provider within 10 business days of the request of the Lessee and/or anyone acting on its behalf.

20.2 The Lessee agrees that failure to connect the Leasehold to the grid as stated in Appendix G and/or to the water network does not derogate from its obligations under this Agreement and shall not constitute cause for claiming damages from the Lessor, as long as the Lessor provides the Leasehold with alternative regular electricity and water supply until connection of the Leasehold to the water network and grid.

20.3 Subject to the Lessor’s obligation to supply electricity as aforesaid, it is agreed that the Lessor, and the Lessor only, has the right, by 21 (twenty one) days advance written warning, to discontinue the supply of electricity to the Building in bulk and make sure to connect the Leasehold to Israel Electric Corporation’s general grid, and the Lessee shall have no claim against the Lessor in this regard, provided that its rights under the Electricity Agreement are not infringed.

The Lessee will install a generator on the roof of the Building at its expense, which will provide electricity to the Leasehold in the event of a power outage, so that no situation arises where the Leasehold is not connected to electricity. The generator details agreed between the parties: the generator will be 3.5*4 meters in size, with an estimated weight of 1.5 tons. In addition, a compressor of 3.5*2 meters in size will also be installed on the roof. The Lessor is responsible for ensuring physical space for installation of the generator and compressor. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 20.1 above, the Lessee declares and confirms that it was brought to its attention that the Lessor may install a central water tap in the Building through which the entire water supply to the lessees in the Building will be transmitted, in addition or instead of the existing water connection. In such case, the Lessee undertakes to pay the Lessor or anyone acting on its behalf for the water consumption to the Leasehold at the payment dates upon receipt of their demand (as opposed to the Lessee’s liability to pay for the water supply on the date of signing this Agreement directly to the water company operating in Rehovot). For avoidance of doubt, the actions required in connection with installation a central water tap, including installation of a water meter to the Leasehold, will be carried out by the Lessor at its sole expense.

20.4 The Lessee declares and confirms that it was brought to its attention that all electricity services to the Building and Leasehold will be provided by the Lessor and/or anyone acting on its behalf, in bulk, and that no electricity services will be provided to the Building and/or Leasehold by the Israel Electric Corporation.

20.4.2 The Lessee undertakes to sign the Electricity Agreement (Appendix G) with the Lessor and/or anyone acting on its behalf and to bear all payments for the electricity services for the Leasehold only, as set out in Appendix G. In any event, the Lessee confirms that the provisions of Appendix G, which will contain all the provisions of this section, will apply to the Lease relationship under this Agreement, whether the Lessee signs the agreement or not.

20.4.3 Without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, the payment obligation on the part of the Lessee under the provisions of the Electricity Agreement (Appendix G) and the electricity payment obligation in respect of the air conditioning, as stated in section 20.4.1 above, is the same as the Rent payment obligation, and the provisions of the Electricity Agreement are tantamount to the provisions of this Agreement, and breach thereof grants the Lessor all remedies set out in this Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, the provisions of sections 11.3, 22 and 24 of this Agreement will apply to the Lessee’s obligations under the Electricity Agreement, without derogating from any other remedy granted to the Lessor under the Electricity Agreement.

20.5 The Lessee undertakes to act reasonably to prevent blockages or breakdowns in the sewage network in the Leasehold resulting from use thereof and to bear expenses for repair of that network incurred as a result of use thereof.

20.6 The Lessee shall only install signs outside or on the Leasehold after receiving prior written approval from the Lessor and/or Management Company, subject to presentation of an illustration to the Lessor for approval and a summary of the location of the signs. The Lessee alone will bear the costs of installing such signs, and full responsibility in respect of installation thereof will apply to it.

The Lessor and/or Management Company may determine the form, size and location of the signs and the Lessor shall be required to install them as determined. If the Lessee installs a sign in contradiction to this section, the Lessor and/or Management Company may remove it at the Lessee’s expense.

20.7 The Lessee shall bear any tax or fee and shall be fully responsible for the installation and maintenance of the signs, and shall be required to obtain any permit required for the purpose of installation of signs.

20.8 If the Lessor and/or Management Company installs a uniform sign for all buildings constructed and/or to be constructed by the Lessor in the area of the Leasehold and/or Building, the Lessee must bear the proportionate payment for such sign.

The same rules apply to any amount to which the Lessor is liable under this subsection as to the Rent, for all intents and purposes.

Without derogating from the foregoing, the Lessor undertakes to cooperate with the Lessee in obtaining the approvals and/or permits required for installation of the signs, including signing any forms and/or confirmations required for this purpose, provided that the Lessor’s said signature does not impose any financial and/or other liability on it. For avoidance of doubt, if the Lessor’s signature is required in order to obtain a permit, the Lessor will provide its consent and signature within 10 business days of receipt of the Lessee’s request at the Lessor’s offices, provided that no financial and/or other obligation is imposed on it. The Lessor shall only refuse the Lessee’s request as set out in this section on reasonable grounds to be specified.

20.9 The Lessor may install billboards on the roof and in the yard of the Leasehold for advertising purpose of the Leasehold and/or its tenants in the Building and/or the Project and the Lessee may not object in any manner to placement thereof, provided that such signs do not conceal, block and/or cover the Leasehold windows in any way and do not affect the activity in the Leasehold, and the Lessee waives any claim and/or lawsuit in this regard and may not object to placement thereof.

For avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that the Management and Maintenance Fees include the proportionate share of the Lessee’s participation in the Lessor’s insurance costs.

21.4.2 The Management and Maintenance Fees will include, inter alia, expenses for operating an information desk, cleaning and landscaping services, inspection and repair services for the foregoing systems, electricity and water supply in the public areas, insurance of the public areas including breakdown coverage, and expenses for any other services required at the discretion of the Lessor and/or Management Company.

21.4.3 In respect of a specific service to be provided by the Management Company to the Lessee and/or Leasehold, the Lessee will pay additional Management and Maintenance Fees.
