Initial Improvements (a) The final space plan (the “Space Plan”) for the Premises, mutually approved by the Parties is attached as Appendix 1. (b) Landlord shall cause the Base Building Improvements (the “Base Building Improvements”) described on Appendix 2 to be completed in accordance with the plans and specifications (the “Building Plans”) prepared by Landlord, the Building Standards and Specifications (the “Building Standards”) attached as Appendix 3 and Laws. The Base Building Improvements shall be made, and the Building Plans shall be prepared, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, except that any changes, alterations, modifications or upgrades to: (i) the Base Building Improvements or the Building Plans requested by Tenant and approved by Landlord; or (ii) the Tenant Improvements or the Tenant Improvement Plans (both defined below) that result in changes, alterations, modifications or upgrades to the Base Building Improvements or the Building Plans, shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. (c) Landlord shall also cause the Tenant Improvements (the “Tenant Improvements”) described on Appendix 2 to be completed in accordance with the Space Plan, the plans and specifications (including the tenant finishes) (the “Tenant Improvement Plans”) approved by the Parties, the Building Standards and Laws. Subject to the last sentence of this subparagraph (c), the Tenant Improvements shall be made, and the Tenant Improvement Plans shall be prepared, at Landlord’s cost and expense, except to the extent that, at Tenant’s direction, the Tenant Improvements vary from the Space Plan or the Building Standards. To the extent that, at Tenant’s direction, the Tenant Improvements vary from the Space Plan or the Building Standards, such variance shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs incurred or payable by Landlord in making the Balconies accessible and usable by Tenant within ten (10) business days after the receipt of an invoice therefor, accompanied by such detail as may reasonably be requested by Tenant, which invoice may be delivered prior to the commencement of construction. (The Base Building Improvements and the Tenant Improvements are referred to in this Exhibit collectively as the “Initial Improvements.”) The Initial Improvements shall be completed free of any mechanics’ liens, except to the extent of any dispute in connection therewith, in which case Landlord shall adequately protect the Property from the foreclosure of any such lien. (d) Landlord shall cause the Tenant Improvement Plans to be prepared by a registered professional architect and mechanical and electrical engineer(s). Landlord shall furnish the initial draft of the Tenant Improvement Plans to Tenant for Tenant’s review and approval. Tenant shall within three (3) business days after receipt either provide comments to such Tenant Improvement Plans or approve the same. Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such Tenant Improvement Plans if Tenant does not timely provide comments on such Tenant Improvement Plans. If Tenant provides Landlord with comments to the initial draft of the Tenant Improvement Plans, Landlord shall provide revised Tenant Improvement Plans to Tenant incorporating Tenant’s comments within three (3) business days after receipt of Tenant’s comments. Tenant shall within three (3) business days after receipt then either provide comments to such revised Tenant Improvement Plans or approve such Tenant Improvement Plans. Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such revised Tenant Improvement Plans if Tenant does not timely provide comments on such Tenant Improvement Plans. The process described above shall be repeated, if necessary, until the Tenant Improvement Plans have finally been approved by Tenant. (e) Landlord shall provide project management services in connection with the construction of the Initial Improvements and the Change Orders (defined below). Such project management services shall be performed without cost to Tenant, except for Change Orders, which shall be performed for a fee of five percent (5%) of all costs related to the construction of the Change Orders. Tenant may, at Tenant’s discretion and sole cost and expense, engage a representative to oversee construction activities on Tenant’s behalf. Said representative shall coordinate its efforts with Landlord’s project manager and/or contractor, shall have full access to all information and documentation with respect to the Tenant Improvements and may be engaged throughout the design and construction process of the Tenant Improvements.
Landlord Improvements Prior to Tenant’s occupancy, Landlord shall complete the Landlord Improvements. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Landlord Improvements by the Anticipated Rent Commencement Date. (a) As of November 4, 2011, after consultation with Tenant, Landlord has provided Tenant with Landlord’s proposed plans and specifications (defined below in subpart (c))for the Landlord Improvements (such plans and specifications, as amended in accordance with the provisions of this Rider 101, are hereafter called “Plans and Specifications”). (b) The Plans and Specifications have been accepted by both Tenant and Landlord, the Plans and Specifications are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof for all purposes. (c) Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the plans dated November 4, 2011, by Page ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Page, LLP have been approved by both parties and shall constitute the “Plans and Specifications.” (d) Promptly upon approval of the Plans and Specifications, Landlord has caused general contractors to bid for construction of the Landlord Improvements. All bids have been opened together, with Landlord selecting the general contractor with the lowest bid to construct the Landlord Improvements (the “General Contractor”), subject to the reasonable approval of Tenant. Landlord shall enter into a guaranteed maximum price construction contract with the General Contractor in the amount of its bid (the “Approved Bid”) and shall not modify such contract without Tenant’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Landlord and Tenant have reviewed the Plans and Specifications and the bids and have agreed upon the scope of work to be constructed at a cost of construction not to exceed the Landlord’s Contribution.
Leasehold Improvements a. Tenant accepts the Premises “AS IS” without any agreements, representations, understandings or obligations on the part of Landlord to perform any alterations, repairs or improvements except as expressly set forth in this Lease. ADDITIONALLY, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LEASE, LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PREMISES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE OF SUITABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY NEGATED AND WAIVED. b. Tenant agrees that it will make no exterior or structural alterations or additions to the Premises nor post or attach or affix to the exterior of the Premises, any signs, air conditioners or other objects without memorializing such proposed alterations, attachments, or fixtures in a Tenant work letter (in form acceptable to Landlord) and obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent to same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to make interior, non-structural alterations to the Premises without Landlord’s consent, so long as such alterations do not (i) affect the structure or electrical, plumbing, or mechanical systems of the Premises; or (ii) decrease the value of the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of such alterations or signs. Tenant shall have the right to install its trade fixtures and equipment in, upon and about the Premises; provided, however, that Tenant shall remove the same on or before the expiration of this Lease, and if so requested by Landlord, promptly after any termination of this Lease; and provided, further, that Tenant shall promptly thereafter repair all damage caused to the Premises by reason of such installation or removal. c. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of suit), losses, liabilities, or causes of action arising out of or relating to any alterations, additions or improvements made by Tenant to the Premises, including, but not limited to, work not completed in a workmanlike manner and any contractor’s, mechanics’ or materialman’s liens asserted in connection therewith. This indemnification obligation shall survive the Term of this Lease. d. Should any contractor’s, mechanic’s or other liens be filed against any portion of the Premises by reason of Tenant’s acts or omissions or because of a claim against Tenant, Tenant shall cause the same to be canceled or discharged of record by bond or otherwise within thirty (30) days after notice by Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to cancel or discharge said lien or liens, within said thirty (30) day period, Landlord may, at its sole option, cancel or discharge the same and upon Landlord’s demand, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all reasonable costs incurred in canceling or discharging such liens, including attorney fees in connection with same.
Improvements to Premises Lessee shall take the Premises in its "as-is" condition for the Extended Term except for certain Leasehold Improvements (herein so called) to the Premises which shall be completed in accordance with the specifications attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Approved Plans"), which have been approved by both Lessor and Lessee. Lessor shall cause the Leasehold Improvements to be installed or constructed in accordance with the Approved Plans by Lessor's contractor. So long as no Event of Default (or event which with notice or lapse of time could become an Event of Default) has occurred under the Lease, Lessor agrees to provide Lessee an allowance equal to One Hundred Fifty-Three Thousand One Hundred Nineteen and No/100 Dollars ($153,119.00) (the "Improvement Allowance"), which allowance is to be used solely for completion of the Leasehold Improvements in accordance with the Approved Plans, and an additional allowance equal to Three Thousand Two Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($3,200.00) (the "Architectural Allowance"), which allowance is to be used solely for space planning and design services for the Premises. In the event that any alterations or modifications to the Premises are required in order to comply with applicable law, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the State of Texas equivalent laws and regulations, the cost of any such alterations or modifications shall be satisfied out of the Improvement Allowance. The cost of the Leasehold Improvements and the space planning and design fees is to be paid by Lessor out of the Improvement Allowance and the Architectural Allowance, respectively. Any completed work (labor or materials) outside the scope of the Approved Plans or the cost of which is in excess of the Improvement Allowance or the Architectural Allowance, as the case may be, shall be at Lessee's sole cost and will be billed to Lessee by Lessor and will be due and payable within ten (10) days after Lessee's receipt of an invoice therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee will not be liable for work outside the scope of the Approved Plans or excess costs over the amount of the Improvement Allowance or the Architectural Allowance unless Lessee has consented in writing to such work outside the scope of the Approved Plans or excess costs prior to the commencement of such work or the incurring of such excess costs. Any portion of the Improvement Allowance or the Architectural Allowance remaining upon the completion of the Leasehold Improvements shall be deemed forfeited by Lessee. Lessor further acknowledges and agrees that Section 4.07 of the Lease is hereby amended to provide that Lessee shall not be required to surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor "in the same condition as when received", but rather shall be entitled to surrender possession of the Premises in the same condition as exists upon the completion of the Leasehold Improvements described in Paragraph 3 above, subject to any and all other requirements set forth in Section 4.07 of the Lease.
