Unless prior written agreement is reached between Tenant and Landlord, any such alterations, additions, improvements or construction shall become part of the Property and shall remain at the expiration of Tenant's Lease term. If Landlord approves of alterations, additions, improvements or construction in writing and Tenant intends to use contractors to undertake such work, the contractors must first be approved in writing by Landlord.

IMPROVEMENTS AND ALTERATIONS 33. The Lessor agrees to furnish the demised premises to the Lessee at the fixturing date with those improvements set forth as Lessor's Improvements in Schedule "C" attached hereto. The Lessee agrees to be responsible for the installation at the fixturing date at its sole risk, cost and expense of the Lessee's Improvements in accordance with the rules and regulations as set forth in Schedule "D" attached hereto. Should the Lessee require any alterations, improvements, partitions, or changes of whatsoever kind to or in the demised premises after the Lessee has taken possession thereof, the Lessee will make and install the same at its own expense; PROVIDED HOWEVER, that no repairs, alterations, improvements, partitions, or changes of whatsoever kind shall be made without the written consent of the Lessor first had and obtained, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; PROVIDED FURTHER, that any such repairs, alterations, improvements, partitions, or changes of whatsoever kind shall be made in a good and workmanlike manner with new, first-class materials and shall be carried out and the plans relating thereto shall be prepared by such tradesman, engineers or consultants as are approved by the Lessor. All alterations, improvements, partitions and changes made in or to the demised premises at any time before or after the taking of possession by the Lessee, by the Lessee or the Lessor, shall immediately become the property of the Lessor and form part of the demised premises and the building and shall remain upon the demised premises; PROVIDED ALWAYS that the Lessor may at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease for any reason whatsoever require that the Lessee restore the demised premises in whole or in part to the same condition in which they were at the time of the entering into of this Lease, the exceptions to the Lessee's repair obligations only excepted. The Lessee shall not remove any furniture, leasehold improvements, fixtures, chattels of any kind from the demised premises without the prior consent of the Lessor and until all rents and other monies due are fully paid. SIGNS
Tenant’s Alterations (a) The construction of the initial Leasehold Improvements (as defined in Exhibit C) shall be governed by the terms of Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof. Except for the Leasehold Improvements and as otherwise set forth below, Tenant shall not, and shall not permit any Tenant Agent to, cut, drill into, or secure any fixture, apparatus, or equipment, or make alterations, improvements, or physical additions of any kind to any part of the Premises (collectively, “Alterations”) without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. If Landlord fails to respond to a request for consent to a proposed Alteration within 10 business days after Landlord’s receipt of such request, the request shall be deemed denied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord fails to respond within such 10 business-day period, Tenant may thereafter send to Landlord a second written requesting approval of the proposed Alteration, which request must set forth in bold and 14-point capitalized type on the first page thereof the following statement: “SECOND AND FINAL REQUEST—LANDLORD HAS 10 BUSINESS DAYS TO RESPOND PURSUANT TO SECTION 9” (“Second Alteration Request”). If Landlord then fails to respond to the Second Alteration Request within 10 business days after receipt thereof (“Second Alteration Request Response Period”), Landlord shall be deemed to have elected to consent to the proposed Alteration, provided Tenant shall otherwise have complied with all provisions of this Lease relating to such Alterations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord notifies Tenant in writing within the Second Alteration Request Response Period that Landlord requires additional time to review the request, then the Second Alteration Request Response Period shall be extended by an additional 10 business days. “
Alterations Tenant shall not permit alterations in or to the Leased Premises unless and until the plans have been approved by Landlord in writing, which approval as to interior non-structural alterations shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right without Landlord's consent, and in compliance with all other provisions of this Section, to make any non-structural alterations to the Leased Premises which do not materially impact the Building's mechanical or electrical systems, do not adversely affect the Building's appearance or value, and the cost of which does not exceed Forty Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($45,000.00) in the aggregate, provided that Tenant gives Landlord fifteen (15) days prior written notice of any such alterations, along with copies of plans and specifications relating thereto. As a condition of such approval (or, with respect to any alterations permitted to be made by Tenant hereunder without Landlord's approval), Landlord hereby agrees that, upon written request by Tenant, at the time that Tenant is contemplating alterations, Landlord will inform Tenant as to whether such proposed alterations will be required to be removed by Tenant and restore the Leased Premises at the end of the Lease Term; otherwise, all such alterations shall at Landlord's option become a part of the realty and the property of Landlord, and shall not be removed by Tenant. Tenant shall ensure that all alterations shall be made in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and building codes, in a good and workmanlike manner and of quality equal to or better than the original construction of the Building. No person shall be entitled to any lien derived through or under Tenant for any labor or material furnished to the Leased Premises, and nothing in this Lease shall be construed to constitute a consent by Landlord to the creation of any lien. If any lien is filed against the Leased Premises for work claimed to have been done for or material claimed to have been furnished to Tenant, Tenant shall cause such lien to be discharged of record within thirty (30) days after filing. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord from all costs, losses, expenses and attorneys' fees in connection with any construction or alteration under this Section 7.03, not performed by Landlord or an affiliate, and any related lien.
Tenant Improvements a. Tenant shall cause to be constructed certain tenant improvements (including those listed in Sections 7(e), 7(f) and 7(g) below) in the Additional Premises (“Tenant’s Work”) pursuant to the Work Letter attached as Exhibit E hereto (the “Work Letter”). Landlord shall provide Tenant with an improvement allowance in an amount not to exceed Nine Hundred Five Thousand Five Hundred Thirty-Five Dollars ($905,535) (based upon Forty-Five Dollars ($45) per rentable square foot) (the “TI Allowance”). The TI Allowance may be used to pay for the following costs related to Tenant’s Work: (i) construction, (ii) project oversight by Landlord (which fee shall equal three percent (3%) of the TI Allowance), (iii) space planning, architect, engineering and other related services performed by third parties unaffiliated with Tenant and (iv) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by Governmental Authorities for permits or for inspections of Tenant’s Work. In no event shall the TI Allowance be used for: (v) payments to Tenant or any affiliates of Tenant, (w) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, (x) the cost of work that is not authorized by the Approved Plans or otherwise approved in writing by Landlord, (y) costs resulting from any default by Tenant of its obligations under the Amended Lease or (z) costs that are recoverable or reasonably recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors). If the total cost of Tenant’s Work exceeds Forty-Five Dollars ($45) per rentable square foot of the Additional Premises, then Tenant shall pay the overage as and when due. Tenant shall have until December 31, 2008, to expend any unused portion of the TI Allowance, after which date Landlord’s obligation to fund such costs shall expire. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (Y) a certificate of occupancy for the Additional Premises suitable for the permitted use and (Z) a Certificate of Substantial Completion in the form of the American Institute of Architects document G704, executed by the project architect with respect to Tenant’s Work in the Additional Premises.
Landlord Improvements Landlord will construct a laboratory build-out for the Premises ("Landlord Improvements") pursuant to plans submitted by Landlord to Tenant and reasonably approved by Tenant ("Plans"), which shall be consistent with the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit "C." The Plans generally shall provide for the Landlord Improvements to be constructed in order to accommodate generally accepted generic biotechnical laboratory uses, except as Landlord may otherwise agree. Unless otherwise determined by Landlord, the Tenant Improvements shall include the construction of an energy efficient electronically controlled central HV/AC plant. Within five (5) days after the Effective Date, Tenant shall provide to Landlord for Landlord's review and approval the following: (i) a proposed detailed list of equipment for the Premises, with the make, model, and specifications, and (ii) a detailed chemical inventory, with all codes and classifications. Tenant shall provide to Landlord such other information as Landlord may reasonably request for construction of the Landlord Improvements within five (5) days after written request therefor. Tenant shall provide written notice of its disapproval of the Plans within five (5) days after the Plans have been submitted detailing its precise reasons for disapproval. The failure of Tenant to disapprove the Plans in writing within a five (5) day period shall be conclusively deemed Tenant's approval of the Plans. Landlord shall have its architect revise the Plans to remedy any reasonable objections of Tenant, and Tenant shall have an additional five (5) day period to review the revised Plans to reasonably determine if such objections were satisfied; provided, however, Tenant shall make no new objections to the Plans. If there are any reasonable objections not addressed by revised Plans, the review procedure shall be repeated until all Tenant's objections are reasonably satisfied. If Tenant has not fully approved the Plans within sixty (60) days after the date such plans were first submitted to Tenant hereunder, Landlord at its sole election may terminate this Lease. Tenant shall timely sign and submit to Landlord a Certificate of Approval of Tenant Improvement Plans in the form as shown in Exhibit "F" attached to this Lease and incorporated herein by this reference ("Certificate"). In the case where Tenant is deemed to have approved the Plans on account of Tenant's failure to timely respond following the delivery of the Plans, such approval shall be deemed to have been given in accordance with the terms of the Certificate. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may reasonably change the Plans as required by Applicable Law or unforeseen circumstances.
Lessee Improvements Lessee shall not make or allow to be made any alterations or physical additions in or to the leased premises without first obtaining the written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any alterations, physical additions or improvements to the leased premises made by Lessee shall at once become the property of Lessor and shall be surrendered to Lessor upon the termination of this Lease provided that Lessee shall be entitled to retain the property listed on Exhibit A attached hereto, and provided further that, Lessor, at its option, may require Lessee to remove any physical additions and/or repair any alterations in order to restore the leased premises to the condition existing at the time Lessee took possession, reasonable wear and tear excepted, all costs of removal and/or alterations to be borne by Lessee. This clause shall not apply to moveable equipment of furniture owned by Lessee, which may be removed by Lessee at the end of the term of this Lease if Lessee is not then in default and if such equipment and furniture are not then subject to any other rights, liens and interests of Lessor.

Lessee, in keeping the Premises in good order, condition and repair, shall exercise and perform good maintenance practices. Lessee’s obligations shall include restorations, replacements or renewals when necessary to keep the Promises and all improvements thereon or a part thereof in good order, condition and state of repair.

Tenant Alterations Tenant will not make or allow to be made any alterations in or to the Premises without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion; provided, however that such Landlord consent shall not be required for changes that are not to the exterior, or are not to the structure, or are not to Buildings systems, or which are merely cosmetic in nature. All Tenant alterations will be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner at Tenant’s sole expense, in conformity with all Applicable Laws by a licensed and bonded contractor approved in advance by Landlord, such approval of contractor not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All contractors performing alterations in the Premises shall carry workers’ compensation insurance, commercial general liability insurance, automobile insurance and excess liability insurance in amounts reasonably acceptable to Landlord and shall deliver a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverages to Landlord prior to commencing work in the Premises. Upon completion of any such work, Tenant shall provide Landlord with “as built” plans, copies of all construction contracts, and proof of payment for all labor and materials. All alterations or improvements, shall remain with the Premises upon Lease termination or expiration and will be surrendered to Landlord along with the Premises at such time and will be deemed owned by Landlord at all times from and after and upon completion thereof (but rights to the use of same and Tenant’s obligations to keep in good order, condition and repair and maintain same, as a part of the Premises, shall remain with Tenant pursuant to this Lease during the term of this Lease). Tenant will have no authority or power, express or implied, to create or cause any construction lien or mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien or claim of any kind against the Premises, the Property or any portion thereof. Landlord’s interest in the Premises is not and shall not be subject to any liens as a result of Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises including specifically, without limitation, for improvements made by Tenant, and all such liens are expressly prohibited. Tenant will promptly cause any such liens or claims to be released by payment, bonding or otherwise within thirty (30) days after request by Landlord, and will indemnify Landlord against losses arising out of any such claim including, without limitation, legal fees and court costs. Landlord has the right, but not the obligation, to discharge any such lien. Any amount paid by Landlord for such purpose and Landlord’s related reasonable attorneys’ fees shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand and shall accrue interest from the date paid by Landlord until Landlord is reimbursed therefor at the highest rate permitted by Law. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT LANDLORD WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIAL FURNISHED OR TO BE FURNISHED TO TENANT, OR TO ANYONE HOLDING THE PREMISES THROUGH OR UNDER TENANT, AND THAT NO MECHANICS’ OR OTHER LIENS FOR ANY SUCH LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIALS WILL ATTACH TO OR AFFECT THE INTEREST OF LANDLORD IN THE PREMISES. TENANT WILL DISCLOSE THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS TO ANY CONTRACTOR ENGAGED BY TENANT PROVIDING LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIAL TO THE PREMISES.

After the initial placement of the fresh batteries it is the responsibility of the Tenant to replace batteries when needed. A monthly "cursory" inspection may be required for all fire extinguishers to make sure they are fully charged.
