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:
