Construction Cost Budget The total cost to District of all elements of the Project designed or specified by the Architect, as adjusted at the end of each design phase in accordance with this Agreement. The Construction Cost Budget does not include the compensation of the Architect and the Architect’s Consultants, the cost of land, rights-of-way, financing or other costs which are the responsibility of the District, including construction management.
Construction Contract; Cost Budget Prior to execution of a construction contract, Tenant shall submit a copy of the proposed contract with the Contractor for the construction of the Tenant Improvements, including the general conditions with Contractor (the “Contract”) to Landlord for its approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Following execution of the Contract and prior to commencement of construction, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a fully executed copy of the Contract for Landlord’s records. Prior to the commencement of the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and after Tenant has accepted all bids and proposals for the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a detailed breakdown, by trade, for all of Tenant’s Agents, of the final estimated costs to be incurred or which have been incurred in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements to be performed by or at the direction of Tenant or the Contractor (the “Construction Budget”), which costs shall include, but not be limited to, the costs of the Architect’s and Engineers’ fees and the Landlord Coordination Fee. The amount, if any, by which the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget exceed the amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance is referred to herein as the “Over Allowance Amount”. In the event that an Over-Allowance Amount exists, then prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall supply Landlord with cash in an amount equal to the Over-Allowance Amount. The Over-Allowance Amount shall be disbursed by Landlord prior to the disbursement of any of the then remaining portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, and such disbursement shall be pursuant to the same procedure as the Tenant Improvement Allowance. In the event that, after the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget have been delivered by Tenant to Landlord, the costs relating to the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements shall change, any additional costs for such design and construction in excess of the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget shall be added to the Over-Allowance Amount and the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget, and such additional costs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately as an addition to the Over-Allowance Amount or at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall make payments for such additional costs out of its own funds, but Tenant shall continue to provide Landlord with the documents described in items (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Section 2.2.2.1 of this Tenant Work Letter, above, for Landlord’s approval, prior to Tenant paying such costs. All Tenant Improvements paid for by the Over-Allowance Amount shall be deemed Landlord’s property under the terms of the Lease.
Cost Savings Developer shall work cooperatively with Architect, Construction Manager, subcontractors and District, in good faith, to identify appropriate opportunities to reduce the Project costs and promote cost savings. Any identified cost savings from the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be identified by Developer, and approved in writing by the District. In the event Developer realizes a savings on any aspect of the Project, such savings shall be added to the Contingency and expended consistent with the Contingency. In addition, any portion of Allowance remaining after completion of the Project shall be added to the Contingency. If any cost savings require revisions to the Construction Documents, Developer shall work with the District and Architect with respect to revising the Construction Documents and, if necessary, obtaining the approval of DSA with respect to those revisions. Developer shall be entitled to an adjustment of Contract Time for delay in completion caused by any cost savings adopted by District pursuant to Exhibit D, if requested in writing before the approval of the cost savings.
Construction Budget The total amount of funds indicated by the District for the entire Project plus all other costs, including design, construction, administration, and financing.
Project Cost Overruns In the event that the Recipient determines that the moneys granted pursuant to Section II hereof, together with the Local Subdivision Contribution, are insufficient to pay in full the costs of the Project, the Recipient may make a request for supplemental assistance to its District Committee. The Recipient must demonstrate that such funding is necessary for the completion of the Project and the cost overrun was the result of circumstances beyond the Recipient's control, that it could not have been avoided with the exercise of due care, and that such circumstances could not have been anticipated at the time of the Recipient's initial application. Should the District Committee approve such request the action shall be recorded in the District Committee's official meeting minutes and provided to the OPWC Director for the execution of an amendment to this Agreement.
Construction Allowance (a) Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance not to exceed $135.00 per rentable square foot in the Relocation Premises (the “Construction Allowance”) to be applied toward the Total Construction Costs, as adjusted for any changes to the Tenant Work. If the Total Construction Costs are estimated to exceed the Construction Allowance by more than $5.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises, then no advance of the Construction Allowance shall be made by Landlord until Tenant has first paid to the contractor from its own funds (and provided reasonable evidence thereof to Landlord) the anticipated amount by which the projected Total Construction Costs exceed the amount of the Construction Allowance. Thereafter, Landlord shall pay to Tenant (or at Tenant’s request directly to Tenant’s general contractor) the Construction Allowance in multiple disbursements (but not more than once in any calendar month) following the receipt by Landlord of the following items: (i) a request for payment and sworn statements of Tenant and contractor, (ii) final or partial lien waivers, as the case may be, from all persons performing work or supplying or fabricating materials for the Tenant Work, fully executed, acknowledged and in recordable form, which waivers may be conditioned upon receipt of payment, (iii) the Architect’s certification that the Tenant Work for which reimbursement has been requested has been finally completed, including (with respect to the last application for payment only) any punch-list items, on the appropriate AIA form or another form approved by Landlord, and, (iv) with respect to the disbursement of the last 10% of the Construction Allowance, (1) the permanent certificate of occupancy issued for the Relocation Premises, if required by applicable law, (2) the record drawing in CAD format, PDF format and hard copy required by Section 5 above, and (3) an estoppel certificate confirming such factual matters as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request (collectively, a “Completed Application for Payment”). Landlord shall pay the amount requested in the applicable Completed Application for Payment to Tenant within 30 days following Tenant’s submission of the Completed Application for Payment. If, however, the Completed Application for Payment is incomplete or incorrect, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant of the same and Landlord’s payment of such request shall be deferred until 30 days following Landlord’s receipt of the corrected Completed Application for Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Exhibit, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any disbursement of the Construction Allowance during the pendency of any of the following: (1) Landlord has received written notice of any unpaid claims relating to any portion of the Tenant Work or materials in connection therewith covered by previously funded applications for payment, (2) there is an unbonded lien outstanding against the Building or the Relocation Premises or Tenant’s interest therein by reason of work done, or claimed to have been done, or materials supplied or specifically fabricated, claimed to have been supplied or specifically fabricated, to or for Tenant or the Relocation Premises, (3) the conditions to the advance of the Construction Allowance are not satisfied, or (4) Tenant is in Default under the Lease. (b) The Construction Allowance must be used on Tenant Work performed within the Relocation Premises and the Total Construction Costs and may not be used to pay for furniture, fixtures or equipment or as rent abatement, HOWEVER, notwithstanding the foregoing, provided Tenant is not in Default, Tenant may use a portion of the Construction Allowance, not to exceed an amount equal to $35.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises, to pay for furniture, fixtures or equipment, moving costs, cabling costs, and other soft costs associated with the Relocation Premises. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for such soft costs, at Landlord’s request Tenant shall execute and deliver a letter to Landlord confirming the exact amount of the Construction Allowance used to pay for such soft costs. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for such costs, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written request that includes copies of paid invoices or receipts for reimbursement of such costs, and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for such amounts within 30 days of receipt of Tenant’s request. Tenant shall provide lien waivers as appropriate. No portion of the Construction Allowance may be used as a credit against Rent due under the Lease. (c) The Construction Allowance must be used (i.e. work performed and invoices submitted to Landlord) by June 30, 2020, or the Construction Allowance shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto. (d) If Landlord defaults in Landlord’s obligation to pay the Construction Allowance pursuant to Section 9 of this Exhibit B-1, or any portion thereof, within five (5) days after the date the same is due, then Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord a second written notice (“Offset Exercise Notice”) requesting payment of such unpaid amounts and notifying Landlord that Tenant intends to offset against rent if not paid. In the event that Landlord fails to contest in good faith or fully pay such amounts within ten (10) business days after such Offset Exercise Notice is received by Landlord, then provided no Default exists Tenant may withhold and offset such unpaid sums from and against 25% of Base Rent next due until paid.
