SECTION 1 GENERAL TERMS, CONDITIONS, AND STANDARDS
1.01 DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL TERMS (SMALL) (OCT 2023)
Unless otherwise specifically noted, all terms and conditions set forth in this Lease shall be interpreted by reference to the following definitions, standards, and formulas:
A. Real Property Terms.
1. “ANSI/BOMA” is an acronym for American National Standards Institute/Building Owners and Managers Association.
2. “ANSI/BOMA Occupant Area” or “ABOA” means the measurement standard (Z65.1-2017) provided by ANSI/BOMA for Occupant Area, which is “the total aggregated area used by an Occupant before Load Factors are applied, consisting of Tenant Area and Tenant Ancillary Area.” The Method A – Multiple Load Factor Method shall apply.
3. “Common Area Factor (CAF)” means a conversion factor determined and applied by the building owner to determine the rentable square feet for the leased space. The CAF is expressed as a percentage of the difference between the amount of rentable square feet (SF) and ABOA SF, divided by the ABOA SF. The CAF shall be determined in accordance with the applicable ANSI/BOMA standard for the type of space to which the CAF shall apply.
4. “Rentable Space or Rentable Square Feet (RSF)” means the area for which a tenant is charged rent. It is determined by the building owner and may vary by city or by building within the same city. Rentable space may include a share of common areas such as elevator lobbies, building corridors, and floor service areas. Floor service areas typically include restrooms, janitor rooms, telephone closets, electrical closets, and mechanical rooms. Rentable space does not include vertical building penetrations and their enclosing walls, such as stairs, elevator shafts, and vertical ducts. To determine the RSF, the ABOA SF is multiplied by the sum of one (1) plus the CAF, for each type of space included in the premises.
5. “Space” means that part of the premises to which the Government has exclusive use, such as occupant area, or other types of space.
Appurtenant areas (e.g., parking areas) to which the Government has rights under the lease are not included in the space.

Government.
At its sole option, the Government may abandon property in the Space following expiration or earlier termination (full or partial) of the Lease, in which case the property will become the property of the Lessor, and the Government will be relieved of any liability in connection therewith.
1.05 NOVATION AND CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP (SMALL) (OCT 2016)
