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.
Tenant Improvements Subject to this Section 4, Tenant shall accept the Suite 110 Premises in its “as is” condition (subject to Landlord's continuing repair and maintenance obligations, as outlined in Section 10 of the Lease (as may be amended)), and Landlord shall have no obligation to make any alterations or improvements thereto whatsoever (provided that Landlord shall deliver same in good and tenantable condition, broom clean, with all systems serving same in good working order). Any alterations that Tenant desires to make in the Suite 110 Premises shall be subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in Section 11 of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, Landlord hereby agrees to grant Tenant an allowance in the amount of $10,000 to be applied toward the cost (including architectural and engineering fees) of alterations performed by Tenant in the Suite 110 Premises (the “Granted Allowance”) in conjunction with Tenant’s initial occupancy of Suite 110 Premises. Provided no Event of Default then exists under the Lease, the Granted Allowance (or portions thereof) shall be disbursed to Tenant within thirty (30) days following Tenant's submission to Landlord of paid invoices for work related to alterations performed by Tenant in the Suite 110 Premises, accompanied by waivers of liens executed by all contractors employed by Tenant for the performance of such work. If the cost of Tenant's alterations in the Suite 110 Premises exceeds the amount of the Granted Allowance, the excess shall be paid by Tenant after the Granted Allowance is fully exhausted. Any portion of the Granted Allowance that has not been applied (or contracted to be applied) in the manner set forth above by the date which is twelve (12) months following the Eighth Amendment Commencement Date shall revert to Landlord, and Tenant shall have no further rights with respect thereto.
Alterations For purposes of this Lease, any physical improvement addition, enhancement or change with respect to all or any portion of the Premises is referred to as an "Alteration." Tenant or Franchisor shall have the right at any time and from time to time during the Term to make or cause to be made any Alteration in or to the Premises (i) without Landlord's consent, if such Alteration is performed in order to comply with any of Tenant's agreements with Franchisor and such Alteration does not adversely affect any structural component of the Building and (ii) in the case of any Alteration other than those permitted under clause (i) above, with Landlord's prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld provided that such Alteration does not (A) diminish the value of the Premises (including, by way of example only, but without limitation, by diminishing the utility of the Improvements for use as a restaurant or diminishing the useful life of the Improvements), except to a de minimis extent, or (B) adversely affect any structural component of the Building. Every Alteration shall be made in accordance with all applicable laws, legal requirements and the Permitted Encumbrances. If Tenant shall submit a request to Landlord for Landlord's approval of an Alteration which requires Landlord's approval, Landlord shall (x) approve such Alteration proposed by Tenant within twenty-one (21) days of receiving Tenant's proposal and request for approval or (y) disapprove Tenant's proposal in writing with a detailed explanation of its objections within twenty-one (21) days of receiving Tenant's proposal and request for approval. If Tenant submits a proposal to Landlord and Landlord disapproves such proposal within the twenty-one (21) day time period, Tenant may submit another proposal with modifications thereto made in response to Landlord's objections and Landlord shall so approve or disapprove same within seven (7) days after submission of such modified proposal. If Landlord does not approve or disapprove any proposal or modified proposal in writing with a detailed explanation of its objections within the applicable seven (1) or twenty-one (21) day period, Tenant may submit to Landlord a reminder notice, which shall state that Landlord's failure to disapprove the applicable proposal within seven (7) days after receipt of such reminder notice shall be deemed to constitute Landlord's approval thereof. If Landlord does not disapprove such proposal or modified proposal in writing with a detailed explanation of Landlord's objections to Tenant's modifications within seven (7) days after receipt of Tenant's reminder notice, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Alterations proposed by Tenant.
Permitted Alterations Tenant shall not make or permit any Alterations without the prior written consent of Landlord (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Alterations (i) affect the exterior of the Building or the outside areas of the Property or the Building (or be visible from adjoining sites), (ii) affect or penetrate any of the structural portions of the Building, including, but not limited to, the roof, (iii) require any change to the basic floor plan of the Premises, any change to the structural or mechanical components of the Premises, or any governmental approval or permit as a prerequisite to the construction thereof, (iv) interfere in any manner with the proper functioning of or Landlord’s access to any mechanical, electrical, plumbing or HVAC systems, facilities or equipment located in or serving the Building, or (v) diminish the value of the Premises. All Alterations shall be constructed pursuant to plans and specifications previously provided to and, when applicable, approved in writing by Landlord, shall be installed by a licensed contractor at Tenant’s sole expense in compliance with all Applicable Laws, and shall be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner conforming in quality and design with the Premises existing as of the Commencement Date and in accordance with the provisions of Section 22.1 below. No Hazardous Materials, including, but not limited to, asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, shall be used by Tenant or Tenant’s Agents in the construction or installation of any Alterations permitted hereunder. All Alterations made by Tenant shall be and become the property of Landlord upon the construction or installation thereof and shall not be deemed Tenant’s Personal Property; provided, however, that Landlord may, at its option and by notice delivered to Tenant at the time of Landlord’s approval, require that Tenant, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, at Tenant’s expense, remove any or all Alterations and return the Premises to its condition as of the Commencement Date, normal wear and tear excepted. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the maintenance, repair and replacement of any and all Alterations made by or for the benefit of Tenant (including, without limitation, by Landlord for the benefit of Tenant). In addition, Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any increase in Real Property Taxes that are attributable to any Alterations, which payment shall be made by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days following Landlord’s written demand therefor from time to time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.1, Tenant, without Landlord’s consent, may make minor Alterations to the Premises which do not affect the Building’s structure or operating systems and that do not cost more than $50,000.00 per project; provided however, Tenant shall provide notice no less than ten (10) business days’ notice of such Alterations.
Improvements; Alterations Improvements to the Premises shall be installed at Tenant’s expense only in accordance with plans and specifications which have been previously submitted to and approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall be governed by the provisions set forth in this Section 8(a). No alterations or physical additions in or to the Premises may be made without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; however, Landlord may withhold its consent to any alteration or addition that would adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) the (1) Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems (including the Building’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), (2) exterior appearance of the Building, (3) appearance of the Building’s common areas or elevator lobby areas, or (4) provision of services to other occupants of the Building. Tenant shall not paint or install lighting or decorations, signs, window or door lettering, or advertising media of any type visible from the exterior of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. All alterations, additions, and improvements shall be constructed, maintained, and used by Tenant, at its risk and expense, in accordance with all Laws; Landlord’s consent to or approval of any alterations, additions or improvements (or the plans therefor) shall not constitute a representation or warranty by Landlord, nor Landlord’s acceptance, that the same comply with sound architectural and/or engineering practices or with all applicable Laws, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for ensuring all such compliance.
Landlord’s Consent to Alterations Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion with respect to any Alterations which may adversely affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment in more than a de minimis manner (e.g., the mere tying into Systems shall not be subject to the sole discretion standard) or which can be seen from outside the Building. Tenant shall pay (i) for Alterations performed by Tenant, Landlord’s reasonable third-party costs incurred in connection with reviewing such Alterations, and (ii) for Alterations for which Tenant has engaged Landlord to supervise and Landlord’s contractors to perform, a supervision fee of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the total cost of such Alteration (for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing supervisory fee shall not be due or payable in connection with the Tenant Improvements and the Vivarium improvements and no supervisory fee shall be due or payable in connection with any capital improvements performed by Landlord). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Landlord approval shall be required (provided advance notice shall be provided to Landlord) for (a) installation, removal or realignment of furniture systems not involving any modifications to the structure or connections (other than by ordinary plugs or jacks) to the Systems, (b) Alterations which could not reasonably be expected to affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment and which cost less than $150,000 for any one (1) job and no more than $300,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year during the Lease Term (excluding any costs for painting, carpeting, and similar purely cosmetic work), (c) Alterations which do not require a building permit, and (d) merely cosmetic work (such as painting and carpeting). The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8.
Building Renovations It is specifically understood and agreed that Landlord has made no representation or warranty to Tenant and has no obligation and has made no promises to alter, remodel, improve, renovate, repair or decorate the Premises, Building, or any part thereof and that no representations respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building have been made by Landlord to Tenant except as specifically set forth herein or in the Work Letter Agreement. However, Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord is currently renovating or may during the Lease Term renovate, improve, alter, or modify (collectively, the "Renovations") the Project, the Building and/or the Premises including without limitation the parking structure, common areas, systems and equipment, roof, and structural portions of the same, which Renovations may include, without limitation, (i) installing sprinklers in the Building common areas and tenant spaces, (ii) modifying the common areas and tenant spaces to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including regulations relating to the physically disabled, seismic conditions, and building safety and security, and (iii) installing new floor covering, lighting, and wall coverings in the Building common areas, and in connection with any Renovations, Landlord may, among other things, erect scaffolding or other necessary structures in the Building, limit or eliminate access to portions of the Project, including portions of the common areas, or perform work in the Building, which work may create noise, dust or leave debris in the Building. Tenant hereby agrees that such Renovations and Landlord's actions in connection with such Renovations shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent. Landlord shall have no responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Tenant's business arising from the Renovations, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of Tenant's personal property or improvements resulting from the Renovations or Landlord's actions in connection with such Renovations, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such Renovations or Landlord's actions.
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. “
Landlord Improvements Landlord shall substantially complete the Landlord Improvements prior to Tenant’s taking occupancy of the Expansion Space. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Landlord Improvements by May 1, 2014. “Substantial Completion” shall mean the Landlord Improvements have been constructed in material accordance with the above referenced drawing, save and except for minor “punch list” items such that Tenant can occupy the Expansion Space and conduct its business, Landlord has obtained all approvals from the applicable governmental authorities for the legal occupancy of the Expansion Space and Landlord has delivered possession of the Expansion Space to Tenant in the required condition, which date is currently anticipated to be May 1, 2014. Upon Substantial Completion, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Expansion Space to Tenant in good, vacant, broom clean condition, with all building systems in good working order and the roof water-tight, and in compliance with all laws applicable to Landlord or Tenant. In the event that construction of the Landlord Improvements is not substantially completed by May 1, 2014, then the Expansion Space Commencement Date shall be automatically amended to be that date the Expansion Space is delivered to Tenant with the Landlord Improvements substantially complete. Upon Substantial Completion of the Landlord Improvements, Landlord shall give Tenant (i) written notice (“Notice of Completion”) that the Expansion Space are ready for occupancy. Within seven (7) days following Landlord’s giving of the Notice of Completion, Landlord and Tenant shall meet at a mutually convenient time to perform a walk-through of the Expansion Space to inspect the Landlord Improvements and to prepare a punch list of minor items needing correction and Landlord shall promptly cause such items to be corrected.
Tenant Improvement Plans Any work proposed by Tenant at the Premises or Building (the “Tenant Improvements”) shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable prior approval and shall be subject to the other terms and conditions of this Exhibit, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed except for good cause shown. All architectural, engineering and other design fees shall be paid by Tenant, provided that, of the total Tenant Improvement Allowance, up to Five and No/100 Dollars (S5.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises of such fees may be subject to reimbursement under the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant shall use its architect, engineers and other design professionals, all of whom shall comply with any applicable licensing or governmental requirements of the City of Santa Xxxxx and the State of California. Tenant shall cause its architect, who shall be subject to Landlord’s prior approval (“Tenant’s Architect”), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed except for good cause shown, to prepare a draft space plan (the “Space Plan”) for the Tenant Improvements and shall submit the proposed Space Plan to Landlord for the latter’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) within twenty-one (21) days following mutual execution of the Lease. (If available upon mutual execution of this Lease, a mutually-approved preliminary space plan for the Tenant Improvements has been attached hereto as Exhibit C-1.) Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any written objections, questions or comments of Landlord with regard to the Space Plan, and Tenant shall cause the Space Plan to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said Space Plan to Landlord for approval within five (5) business days thereafter. Such process shall continue until Landlord has approved the Space Plan. Tenant’s Architect shall then prepare working drawings and specifications for the Tenant Improvements, including architectural, structural, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and fire protection drawings as required, suitable for permit application (the “Working Drawings”) and shall submit the proposed Working Drawings to Landlord for the latter’s approval within sixty (60) days following Landlord’s approval of the final Space Plan. The Space Plan and Working Drawings shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which Landlord agrees shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord shall not be deemed to have acted unreasonably if it withholds its approval thereof because, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion as supported by statement or reports from licensed engineers, the work, as described in any such item: (i) will adversely affect Building systems, the structure of the Building or the safety of the Building and/or their occupants; (ii) will materially impair Landlord’s ability to furnish services to Tenant or other tenants at the Project; (iii) would materially increase the cost of operating the Building; (iv) would violate any governmental laws, rules or ordinances (or interpretations thereof); (v) contains or uses hazardous or toxic materials or substances not permitted under Applicable Laws; (vi) would affect the external appearance of the Building; (vii) would materially and adversely affect another tenant’s premises at the Project: or (viii) is prohibited by any mortgage, trust deed or other instrument encumbering the Building or Project. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any written objections, questions or comments of Landlord with regard to the Working Drawings, and Tenant shall cause the Working Drawings to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said Working Drawings to Landlord for approval within ten (10) business days thereafter. Such process shall continue until Landlord has approved the Working Drawings. Landlord’s approval of the Space Plan and/or the Working Drawings shall not be deemed any representation or warranty that the same comply with applicable codes.
