Improvement Allowance Landlord shall provide Tenant with an allowance for the costs (the “Allowance Costs”) of preparing the Premises for Tenant's initial occupancy (including the costs of Landlord’s Initial Construction) in an amount not to exceed the “Improvement Allowance,” as such term is defined in Section 1.1 of this Lease. Allowance Costs may include (i) up to $513,250 for architectural, engineering and other so-called “soft costs” and (ii) not to exceed $150,000 for the costs to cause the demolition of the Premises prior to the performance of Landlord’s Initial Construction. If requested by Tenant for any particular item(s) of Landlord’s Initial Construction in excess of $100,000, Landlord shall solicit bids from its general contractor who will solicit at least three (3) bids for each such item and shall promptly supply Tenant with such detailed information about bid requests and negotiations with contractors as Tenant may reasonably request, provided that any delays resulting from Tenant’s failure to act within two (2) business days upon the information supplied to it by Landlord shall constitute a Tenant Delay. In the case of each bid request, Landlord will accept the lowest responsible bid, unless Landlord and Tenant reasonably determine otherwise. Any HVAC control work shall be performed by AHA Consulting Engineers. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the total fixed-price construction cost of Landlord’s Initial Construction shown on such Construction Documents (the “Base Price”), including xxxx-ups as determined hereunder. The Base Price shall hereafter be subject to adjustment for Change Orders (if any). Costs of Building services or facilities (such as electricity, HVAC, and cleaning) actually required to implement Landlord’s Initial EAST\66392481.7 B-7 Construction and other variable costs to the extent required to be paid by Tenant under the Lease (such as for review, inspection, and testing) shall thereafter be added to the Base Price (as adjusted for Change Orders). A pro-rata share of the cost of the multi-tenant corridor, if applicable, which shall be constructed by Landlord, shall be added to the Base Price. All costs referred to in this paragraph shall be subject to reimbursement from the Improvement Allowance. In the event that the total fixed price of Landlord’s Initial Construction (as determined hereunder), together with any related costs reasonably estimated by Landlord, exceeds the Improvement Allowance, Landlord may from time to time require Tenant to pay such excess to Landlord before performing Landlord’s Initial Construction. Tenant shall be permitted to increase the Improvement Allowance (such increase being a “TI Allowance Increase”) to pay amounts otherwise due to Landlord under Section 7 below, subject to each of the following conditions:
TI Allowance Landlord shall provide to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance (collectively, the “TI Allowance”) as follows:
Tenant Allowance Landlord shall provide Tenant an allowance for each Building in an amount not to exceed the sum set forth in the Basic Lease Information for the Tenant Allowance for the applicable Building (collectively, the “Tenant Allowance”), to be applied toward the cost of the following items in respect of the Tenant Improvements in the applicable Building: Architectural and engineering fees, space planning, building permits or other governmental fees, and the cost of labor, materials, contractors fees and overhead, and other charges included in the construction contract for construction of Tenant Improvements, including the contractor’s fee, overhead and general conditions, sales and use taxes, the cost of the builder’s risk insurance during construction and all testing and inspection costs. If Landlord elects to itself construct the Restroom Improvements, Landlord shall make payments to its contractor for the Restroom Improvements as and when such costs are incurred and deduct the amount of such payments from the Tenant Allowance for Building 2 up to the maximum amount stated in Paragraph I of this Work Letter. Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse any remaining portion of the Tenant Allowance attributable to a Building until such time as (i) the Commencement Date for the applicable Building has occurred and Tenant has accepted delivery of the Building and made the initial prepayment of Rent with respect to the applicable portion of the Premises; and (ii) Tenant has delivered to Landlord and Landlord has approved, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, all of the following: (A) invoices, paid receipts and/or related evidence reasonably acceptable to Landlord establishing that Tenant has paid an amount equal to that portion of the Tenant Allowance requested by Tenant to third parties in connection with the Tenant Improvements in the applicable Building; (B) executed unconditional final mechanics’ lien releases, in statutory form, from Tenant’s contractor and all subcontractors, laborers, materialmen and suppliers used by Tenant with respect to all work in and to the Premises located in the applicable Building; (C) a certificate from Tenant’s architect or space planner, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, certifying that the construction of the Tenant Improvements in the applicable Building has been substantially completed and meets all applicable building codes; (D) a copy of the certificate of occupancy (or similar governmental authorization) for the applicable Building; (E) “as-built” drawings for the Tenant Improvements in the applicable Building, signed by either Tenant’s architect, space planner or contractor, and electronic CAD files from Tenant’s Contractor and all subcontractors; and (F) a final punch list signed off by both Tenant and Landlord and/or their architects. Thereafter, Landlord shall deliver, within fifteen (15) days following Tenant’s delivery of the materials and information required for disbursement thereof in the preceding sentence, a check payable to Tenant in the amount of that portion of the Tenant Allowance requested by Tenant and paid to third parties in connection with the Tenant Improvements for the applicable Building (which amount shall not exceed the portion of the Tenant Allowance provided for such Building as specified in the Basic Lease Information). Landlord’s payment of any portion of the Tenant Allowance shall not be deemed Landlord’s approval any of the Tenant Improvements absent Landlord’s prior approval pursuant to this Work Letter. Landlord’s obligation to disburse the Tenant Allowance for each Building under this Paragraph 9(b) shall expire six (6) months after the Delivery Date for the applicable Building, subject to extension due to Force Majeure, such that Landlord shall not be obligated to provide to Tenant any undisbursed portion of the Tenant Allowance for a Building unless Tenant has delivered to Landlord all documents required above within nine (9) months after the Delivery Date of such Building.
