ALTERATIONS & IMPROVEMENTS Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements or do any type of construction to the Property without first obtaining Landlord's written consent. 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. Tenant must also place any funds to cover the amount of any alterations, additions, improvements or construction in an escrow account approved by Landlord before the commencement of the work. Landlord shall designate the times and manner of the work being done, exclusively.
Tenant's Improvements If the Lessor is the Insuring Party, the Lessor shall not be required to insure Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor under the terms of this Lease. If Lessee is the Insuring Party, the policy carried by Lessee under this Paragraph 8.3 shall insure Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations.
Maintenance of Improvements All improvements on the property, including, but not limited to, buildings, trees or other improvements now on the premises, or hereafter made or placed thereon, shall be a part of the security for the performance of this contract and shall not be removed therefrom. Purchaser shall not commit, or suffer any other person to commit, any waste or damage to said premises or the appurtenances and shall keep the premises and all improvements in as good condition as they are now.
Removal of Improvements All alterations, additions and other improvements by Tenant shall become the property of Landlord and shall not be removed from the Premises, unless request is made by Landlord to Tenant to remove those alterations, additions and other improvements which were made without Landlord's approval where such approval was required under this Lease. All moveable trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings and signs installed in the Premises by Tenant and paid for by Tenant, shall remain the property of Tenant and may be removed upon the expiration of the term of this Lease; provided that any of such items as are affixed to the Premises and require severance may be removed only if Tenant repairs any damage caused by such removal and that Tenant shall otherwise comply with all of the terms, conditions and covenants to be performed by Tenant under this Lease with respect to such removal. If Tenant fails to remove such items from the Premises by the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination of this Lease, all such trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings and signs shall become the property of Landlord, unless Landlord elects to require their removal, in which case Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly remove the same and restore the Premises to its condition on the date of this Lease. The covenants contained in this Section shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination hereof.
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.
