Alterations, Additions, and Improvements Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor not to permit the Premises to be used for any purpose other than that stated in Section 5 hereof or make or allow to be made any alterations or physical additions in or to the Premises without first obtaining the written consent of Lessor in each such instance. Lessor's consent shall not be required for nonstructural alterations made by Lessee from time to time as necessary to adapt the Premises for the uses and business purposes permitted hereby, provided that such alterations do not affect any part of the Building other than the Premises, are not visible from outside the Building and do not adversely affect any service required to be furnished by Lessor to Lessee or to any other tenant or occupant of the Building. Lessee shall be responsible for any lien filed against the Premises or any portion of the Building for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to Lessee. Any and all such alterations, physical additions, or improvements, when made to the Premises by Lessee, shall be at Lessee's expense and shall at once become the property of Lessor and shall be surrendered to Lessor upon termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise; provided, however, this clause shall not apply to the movable fixtures, office equipment, and other personal property owned by Lessee.

Legal Use and Violations of Insurance Coverage. ----------- ----------------------------------------------- Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor not to occupy or use, or permit any portion of the Premises to be occupied or used, for any business or purpose which is unlawful, disreputable, or deemed to be extra-hazardous on account of fire, or permit anything to be done which would in any way increase the rate of fire, liability, or any other insurance coverage on the Building and/or its contents.
ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS Tenant shall make no alterations to the buildings or improvements on the Premises or construct any building or make any other improvements on the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. Any and all alterations, changes, and/or improvements built, constructed or placed on the Premises by Tenant shall, unless otherwise provided by written agreement between Landlord and Tenant, be and become the property of Landlord and remain on the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
Changes and Alterations Except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein, Tenant shall have no authority, without the express written consent of Landlord to alter, remodel, reconstruct, demolish, add to, improve or otherwise change the Leased Premises, except that Tenant shall have such authority, without the consent of Landlord, to build substructures; add, remove, or modify internal wiring; erect or remove non-load bearing walls; add or remove internal doors; construct internal clean room(s); make repairs to the Leased Premises and do such other things as are appropriate to comply with the obligations imposed on Tenant under other provisions of this Lease. Except as otherwise outlined herein, Tenant shall not construct or permit any alterations, installations, additions or improvements including any interior or exterior signs (“Alterations”) to the Leased Premises or the Building without having first submitted to Landlord plans and specifications therefor for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed provided that:
(a) if the improvement involves a sign or will otherwise be visible from the exterior then the improvement must be compatible with the architectural and aesthetic qualities of the Leased Premises and the Site; and
(b) the improvement must be non-structural and have no effect on the plumbing, heating (and cooling), mechanical, electrical or other systems or services in the Leased Premises, and the improvement (except for signs) must be entirely within the Leased Premises; and
(c) the change, when completed will not materially adversely affect the value of the Leased Premises or the Site; and
(d) Tenant demonstrates to Landlord’s satisfaction that the improvement will be made in accordance with applicable legal requirements using good quality materials and good quality construction practices and will not result in any liens on the Leased Premises; and
(e) as soon as such work is completed, Tenant will have prepared and provide Landlord with “as-built” plans (in form acceptable to Landlord) showing all such work; and
(f) Tenant will comply with any rules or requirements reasonably promulgated by Landlord in connection with the doing of any work, and if requested by Landlord, Tenant will obtain and maintain Builder’s Risk insurance in connection with such work. Tenant shall have the right to make minor alterations from time to time in the interior of the Leased Premises without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent therefor, provided that all of such work conforms to all of the above requirements in all respects (except for the requirement in subsection (a) to obtain Landlord’s prior written consent and the requirement in subsection (e) to provide “as-built” plans to Landlord), and further provided that Tenant provides Landlord with a written description of such work (and such other data as Landlord may request) not later than 30 days after each such alteration is made.
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.
Alterations Except as provided in the immediately preceding subparagraph, and except for non-structural and non-Building system alterations not in excess of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) in any Lease Year, Tenant shall make no alterations or additions to the Premises (“Alterations”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, and then only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord in writing and upon the approval by Landlord in writing of fully detailed and dimensioned plans and specifications pertaining to the Alterations in question, to be prepared and submitted by Tenant, at its sole cost and expense. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain all necessary approvals and permits pertaining to any Alterations approved by Landlord. If Landlord, in approving any Alterations, specifies a reasonable commencement date therefor, Tenant shall not commence any work with respect to such Alterations prior to such date. Tenant hereby indemnifies, defends and agrees to hold Landlord free and harmless from all liens and claims of lien, and all other liability, claims and demands arising out of any work done or material supplied to the Premises by or at the request of Tenant in connection with any Alterations. If permitted Alterations are made, they shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and shall be and become the property of Landlord, except that Landlord may, provided notice is given to Tenant at the time Landlord approves such Alteration, require Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to remove all partitions, counters, railings and other Alterations installed by Tenant, and to repair any damages to the Premises caused by such removal upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. If Landlord’s approval is not required in connection with an Alteration, Landlord may require removal of such Alteration, as aforesaid, at any time within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s written request for a determination by Landlord as to whether such Alteration shall be removed upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. Any and all costs attributable to or related to the applicable building codes of the city in which the Building is located (or any other authority having jurisdiction over the Building) arising from Tenant’s plans, specifications, improvements, alterations or otherwise shall be paid by Tenant at its sole cost and expense. With regard to repairs, Alterations or any other work arising from or related to this Article 5, Landlord shall be entitled to receive an administrative fee of two percent (2%).

Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord or the Tenant's contractors, as the case may be, when due, the cost of all such work plus (x) all of Landlord's costs associated therewith (including, without limitation, all sums expended by Landlord for examination and approval of the architectural and mechanical plans and specifications) and (y) a coordination fee equal to five percent (5%) of the actual total cost of any such improvement, installation, alteration or addition. Tenant shall pay such costs and fee within twenty (20) days after being billed therefor.
(b) All alterations, improvements, installations and additions to the Premises, whether temporary or permanent in character, made or paid for by Landlord or Tenant, shall without compensation to Tenant become Landlord's property at the termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise and shall, unless Landlord is entitled to and does request their removal (in which case Tenant shall remove the same as provided in Section 16) , be relinquished to Landlord in good condition, ordinary wear and damage resulting from fire or other casualty excepted.
