Related to Acceptance and Use of the Premises

• Acceptance of the Premises Tenant or its representatives may, at reasonable times, enter upon the Premises during the progress of the work to inspect the progress thereof and to determine if the work is being performed in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.1. Tenant shall promptly give to Landlord notices of any alleged failure by Landlord to comply with those requirements. Landlord’s Work shall be deemed approved by Tenant when Tenant occupies the Premises for the conduct of its business, except for items of Landlord’s Work which are uncompleted or do not conform to Exhibit C and the Final Plans and as to which Tenant shall, in either case, have given written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days following the Commencement Date as set forth in a punch-list as set forth below. A certificate of completion by Landlord’s architect or engineer and a Certificate of Occupancy shall be evidence that Landlord’s Work has been completed except for items stated in such certificate to be incomplete or not in conformity with Exhibit C and the Final Plans. Within five (5) days after the Town of Burlington issues a temporary Certificate of Occupancy, Landlord and Tenant shall meet for the purpose of determining the work remaining in order for Landlord to achieve a final Certificate of Occupancy, each acting reasonably and in good faith, and to select a subsequent date for a joint walk-through of the Premises in order to prepare a punch-list identifying items of Landlord’s Work which are incomplete (the “Punch-list Items”). Landlord shall cause such Punch-list Items to be completed within thirty (30) days after the preparation of the list by the parties, unless the parties agree upon any longer time periods. If Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of the existence of a latent defect in Landlord’s Work within one year following the Commencement Date, then Landlord at its expense subject to its General Contractor’s warranty will repair such defect. A “latent defect” is a defect in the construction of the Premises which defect would not ordinarily be observed during a walk-through inspection.

• Use of the Premises A. The dwelling unit shall be used only as a private residence for Tenant and Tenant’s household members, except that Tenant and the household members may request an exception for certain limited incidental activities on a case by case basis in the dwelling unit if the Authority has given prior written consent to do so. All exceptions will require prior written approval and, if the activity will continue in the following year, a new exception request will need to be submitted for approval. B. Tenant shall give prior notice to the Authority of any guest staying overnight at Tenant’s premises and any such overnight stay is deemed an accommodation for the guest. Reasonable accommodation for a guest is permitted only so long as the guest is not provided accommodations in or upon the premises, including the dwelling unit, for more than a total of fourteen (14) days in a twelve (12) month period, except with the express written permission of the Authority made upon written request from Tenant. As used in the Lease, “guest” means a person present in the dwelling unit or elsewhere upon the premises, other than Tenant or the household members, who is so present with the consent of the Tenant or one of the household members. C. Tenant, any of the household members and any guest shall only use the dwelling unit or any other portion of the premises for lawful purposes permitted under the Lease and shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Authority and with all applicable federal, state and local laws. D. Tenant, the household members and any guests, shall use not use the utilities furnished by the Authority so as to waste the utilities through excess utility consumption, and shall also use and operate all utilities, whether or not furnished by the Authority, so as to comply with all applicable laws, regulations or guidelines of any governmental entity regulating utilities or fuels. E. Tenant, or any of the household members, are prohibited from entering upon the Development for any reason if the Tenant has been evicted through the judicial process; (2) the Tenant is issued an eviction notice, appeals the eviction to the hearing office and the hearing officer upholds the City’s decision; and/or (3) the Tenant fails to appeal the eviction notice within the requisite time period.

• Acceptance of Leased Premises On or before the Possession Date, Tenant and Landlord shall each execute the letter agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Letter Agreement”). By its execution of the Letter Agreement or occupancy of the Leased Premises, Tenant shall be deemed to represent and certify that it has examined the Leased Premises and that it thereby accepts the Leased Premises in its condition at the time, except for the list of defects and/or omissions identified in writing prior to the Possession Date (the “Punch-List”) and latent defects, but subject, in all cases, to Landlord’s repair, maintenance and replacement obligations set forth in this Lease and to the warranty related to the Tenant Improvements, as provided in the Work Letter Agreement. After the notice provided in Section 3.03 and prior to the Possession Date, the parties shall meet in the Leased Premises to establish the Punch-List. Landlord shall review the Punch-List items with Tenant and correct all undisputed Punch- List items within a reasonable time, not to exceed thirty (30) days after receipt of the Punch- List; provided that, if any Punch-List items cannot be corrected within such thirty (30) day period despite reasonable diligence by Landlord, then, so long as Landlord commences correction of such Punch-List items within such thirty (30) day period and diligently pursues such correction to completion, no default by Landlord shall be deemed to have occurred. Punch-List items for completion taking longer than six (6) months to complete (and not otherwise the result of Force Majeure, Tenant Delay, or the COVID-19 Condition) shall trigger a day for day prorated Minimum Monthly Rent abatement. The Tenant Improvements shall be subject to a two (2) year warranty, from the Possession Date, with regard to materials, design and workmanship, as provided in more detail in the Work Letter Agreement. Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord in providing required information as needed for Landlord to pursue vendor warranties on a timely basis, as requested in writing by Landlord. Landlord will pursue any valid warranty claims against its contractor beyond the two (2) year warranty provided that any expenses incurred and/or any recovery obtained shall be treated as either additional Operating Costs or an offset to Operating Costs under Section 5.03(a).

• Use of the Leased Premises (a) Lessor, in consideration of the rents to be paid and covenants herein contained, hereby leases to Lessee the Leased Premises. (b) Lessee may use the Leased Premises for the operation of the station, and, in connection therewith, for the installation, repair, maintenance, operation, housing and removal of its Improvements and other related broadcasting equipment (together comprising the “Installations”). Lessee is fully familiar with the physical condition of the Land and has received the same in good order and condition, and agrees that the Land complies in all respects with all requirements of this Agreement. Lessee shall use the Land exclusively for purposes associated with the operation of the station. (c) Lessee shall have the right from time to time to substitute Installations of similar kind and character for those hereinabove specified, including without limitation, the rebuilding and reconfiguring of the towers on the Real Property, provided such changes shall be approved in advance by Lessor, and Lessor shall not unreasonably delay or withhold its approval. In the event Lessee submits any such changes for Lessor’s approval and Lessor does not respond within thirty (30) days after Lessor’s receipt thereof, then such changes shall be deemed approved by Lessor, so long as such changes otherwise comply with this Agreement. (d) Lessee shall have access to the Leased Premises twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week, for the purpose of installing, maintaining and repairing its Installations, provided that the contractors performing such work are reasonably acceptable to Lessor. (e) Lessor shall not be responsible for repairs or maintenance to the Installations, except for repairs occasioned by the negligence of Lessor, its agents, employees or contractors. (f) Lessee shall not use or permit the Leased Premises to be used by any dangerous, toxic, noxious or offensive trade or business, or for any unlawful purpose. (g) Lessee shall not directly or indirectly create or permit to be created or to remain, and will discharge any mortgage, lien, security interest, encumbrance or charge on, pledge of or conditional sale or other title retention agreement with respect to the Real Property or any part thereof or Lessee’s interest therein other than (i) this Agreement, (ii) any lien, including a mortgage on the leasehold interest of Lessee, which may be approved by the Lessor in writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, (iii) liens for impositions not yet payable, or payable without the addition of any fine, penalty, interest or cost for non-payment, or being contested as permitted by Paragraph 3(d), below, and (iv) liens of mechanics, materialmen, suppliers or vendors, or rights thereto, incurred in the ordinary course of business for sums which under the terms of the related contracts are not at the time due, provided that adequate provision for the payment thereof shall have been made.

• Condition of the Premises Tenant has examined the Premises, including the appliances and fixtures ( and furnishings), and acknowledges that they are in good condition and repair, normal wear and tear excepted, and accepts them in its current condition, except for:

• DESCRIPTION OF THE PREMISES Prior to, or during the first month of the effective use (transfer of keys) of the rented property and whenever important alterations have been made to the rented property during the rental period, both parties are obliged to draw up a detailed and contradictory description of the property at their joint expense. If one of the parties so requests, the parties will draw up a detailed and contradictory description of the premises at their joint expense at the end of the rental period. In the absence of an initial description of the premises, the tenant is deemed to have received the property in the condition in which it is in at the time they leave, except if the necessary proof to the contrary is provided. The same applies if no final description of the premises has been drawn up by the end date of the contract. After signature by the contracting parties, the description of the premises will be appended to the present agreement. The lessor has the right to make the reimbursement or release of the deposit dependent on the drawing up of the final description of the premises in the presence of the tenant or their representative, at a mutually agreed time. The lessor will make every effort to be present at this description of the premises at a reasonable time.

• Construction of the Tenant Improvements (a) Tenant shall construct and install the Tenant Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, in compliance with all Laws and in accordance with this Exhibit B. Tenant’s proposed architect/engineer, general contractor, and fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical subcontractors are subject to Landlord’s prior approval. Promptly following the selection and approval of the architect/engineer, Tenant shall forward to said architect/engineer (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s building standards heretofore delivered to Tenant, and Tenant shall cause said architect/engineer to comply with said building standards. Promptly following the selection and approval of the general contractor, Tenant shall forward to said general contractor (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical specifications and Landlord’s rules of conduct, all of which have been delivered to Tenant prior to the date of this Lease, and Tenant shall cause said general contractor to comply with said specifications and rules of conduct. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall coordinate a meeting among Landlord (who will reasonably make its representative available for such meeting), Tenant and Tenant’s general contractor to discuss the Building systems and other matters related to the construction of the Tenant Improvements. (b) Promptly following the date hereof, Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord a set of permittable construction drawings (the “CDs”), based on the preliminary plans attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 and made a part hereof (the “Preliminary Plans”), covering all work to be performed by Tenant in constructing the Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall have no right to make any Tenant Improvements that would materially alter the exterior appearance of the Building or the Building systems without Landlord’s prior approval. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the CDs in which to review the CDs and in which to give Tenant written notice of its approval of the CDs or its requested changes to the CDs in reasonably sufficient detail so as to allow Tenant to make the requested changes (provided that Landlord shall not be permitted to request a change that is inconsistent with the Preliminary Plans). If Landlord requests any changes to the CDs, Tenant shall make such changes and shall, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of Landlord’s requested changes (if any), submit the revised portion of the CDs to Landlord. Landlord shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the revised CDs in which to review said revised CDs and in which to give to Tenant written notice of its approval of the revised CDs or its requested changes thereto. This process shall continue until such time, if at all, that Landlord approves the CDs in accordance with this Section 2. Tenant shall at all times in its preparation of the CDs, and of any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith. Landlord shall at all times in its review of the CDs, and any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith.

• Office Space and Facilities The Adviser will arrange to furnish the Trust office space in the offices of the Adviser, or in such other place or places as may be agreed upon from time to time, and all necessary office facilities, simple business equipment, supplies, utilities and telephone service required for managing the investments of the Trust.

• Construction of Tenant Improvements Promptly following approval of the Final TI Working Drawings, Landlord shall apply for and use reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary permits and approvals to allow construction of Landlord’s TI Work. Upon receipt of such permits and approvals, Landlord shall, at Tenant’s expense (subject to the application of the Tenant Improvement Allowance provided in this Workletter, and subject to any other applicable provisions of the Lease or of this Workletter expressly making any specific item of expense or cost the responsibility of Landlord), diligently construct and complete Landlord’s TI Work substantially in accordance with the Approved TI Plans, subject to Unavoidable Delays and Tenant Delays (if any). Such construction shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and shall conform to all applicable governmental codes, laws and regulations in force at the time such work is completed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for compliance of Landlord’s TI Work with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and all similar or related requirements pertaining to access by persons with disabilities, but nothing in this sentence shall be construed to make Landlord responsible for bearing the cost of any such compliance, to the extent the compliance work is reasonably attributable to or related to the particular nature or design of the Tenant Improvements or is for any other reason expressly made Tenant’s cost or responsibility under any applicable provision of the Lease or of this Workletter. Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decide whether and to what extent to use union labor on or in connection with Landlord’s Work, and shall use the TI General Contractor to construct all of Landlord’s TI Work. Landlord and Tenant shall each have a right to approve all subcontractors engaged in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements and to review and approve all competitive bids for any elements of the Tenant Improvements, such approval in each instance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by either party.
