Office Policies

In the interest of mutual courtesy and respect, we would appreciate each client and its employees following these basic common sense courtesies:

	
  

	
1.

	
When you access and use Prime’s copiers, facsimile machines and conference room telephones, you will need a four-digit identification number (PIN). Please see our staff to obtain your unique number. All charges to this number are your responsibility, so keeping this number confidential is very important.

	
  

	
2.

	
All business should be conducted in your office; halls and pantries are not to be used as an extension of an office.  Calls, including cell phone calls, should be made or received only in offices or conference rooms.

	
  

	
3.

	
The reception area is a common area for all clients’ guests.  Visitors cannot be left in the reception area for much longer than five minutes.  Meetings with guests, clients, or business associates may not be held outside of conference rooms or offices.

	
  

	
4.

	
Conference rooms and pantry area facilities are shared by everyone; please be considerate and leave these areas neat and clean. The pantry contains a snack and a soda machine for your use.

	
  

	
5.

	
Please allow as much lead-time as possible when reserving conference room time. Conference room time is allocated on a first-come first-serve basis. You should know that usage is charged based on the time reserved plus any extension that occurs.

	
  

	
6.

	
Clients are issued one room key when moving in. You may make as many additional copies of this key as you require for an additional fee.

	
  

	
7.

	
Please be conscious of the noise level in your offices. Noise can carry into hallways and other offices disturbing fellow customers. If there are several employees within your space, or if you use the speakerphone, keep your office door closed to contain the noise.

	
  

	
8.

	
In keeping with a business environment, young children and pets of any kind are not permitted in Prime Office Centers.

	
  

	
9.

	
While Prime Office Centers has no policy on dress, in the interest of maintaining a business- like environment we expect all our clients to dress as professionally as possible.

	
  

	
10.

	
Please try and give us as much notice as possible for any changes in your telephone or facsimile requirements. We require up to three days for completion of such telephone work. Set-up charges are for the initial configuration of the system. Subsequent changes are subject to further charges depending upon the amount and complexity of the work.

	
  

	
11.

	
No client is permitted to have his own copier, refrigerator, water cooler, heater, or any appliance that consumes excessive electricity.

 

  

  

  

 

	
  

	
12.

	
New York City ordinances forbid smoking in any and all areas of this building. Both you and your guests must leave the building if you wish to smoke.

	
  

	
13.

	
Should you require the use of building services such as repairs, adjustments or replacement of building property, please direct your request to Prime’s staff who will best know whom to call.

	
  

	
14.

	
A building pass is required to bring any packages into or out of this building. You may obtain a pass from our staff. Please allow reasonable time for issuance of building passes.

	
  

	
15.

	
We can assist you with packages; mail and messenger services, etc., just see a member of our staff.

	
  

	
16.

	
This building will not admit any of our clients without an identification card. Please check with our staff to arrange for the issuance of this card.

	
  

	
17.

	
Prior to moving into or out of our office, approval must be obtained from the building management office.  If you require the services of a commercial moving company, they must provide the building with the appropriate certificate of insurance.  No boxes or business machines may be removed from the building without a pass.   Please make advance arrangements with our staff to secure this pass.

	
  

	
18.

	
Should you vacate your office, we will be required to make certain restorative work to bring the space up to its original move-in condition. You are responsible for these costs, which will vary depending on how much wear and tear was experienced over the course of your usage. Painting and carpet cleaning are always required, and will cost approximately $400.00. Additionally, restoration work to furniture and any other features may raise this cost substantially.

	
  

	
19.

	
Any damage done to Prime’s office equipment, conference room furniture, or common areas, that is caused by you or any of your guests, will require a charge to cover restoration work.

	
  

	
20.

	
All bills rendered by us are due and payable within ten days. Unpaid balances over ten days will be assessed a service charge. Any receipt of funds to your account will be applied first to this service charge, then to your remaining balance. We urge you to pay all bills promptly.

	
  

	
21.

	
Prime requires sixty (60) days notice of termination. The sixty day notice always begins on the first day of the month. Please make sure that such notice is given to us prior to the first day of the month, which you wish the sixty (60) day period to begin. We cannot make exceptions to this requirement. All notifications must be in writing and delivered to a Prime staff member. The date this notification is received by us is the date that will be used for the notification period.

 

	
  

	
22.

	
No client may offer Prime Office Centers’ employees employment. Should any of our employees accept a job with you, or through your efforts, during your occupancy or within one year after you have vacated an office, you will be liable for an employment fee of $25,000.

	
  

	
23.

	
We have the capability of providing video conferencing and audiovisual equipment. Please see a member of our staff for further information.

This licensed addendum is hereby made a part of your agreement with Prime Office Centers and your signature below acknowledges their receipt and your acceptance thereof.
