Contract Documents 2.1 The Contract Documents are comprised of the following:
Project Documents The words "Project Documents" mean the Plans and Specifications, all studies, data and drawings relating to the Project, whether prepared by or for Borrower, the Construction Contract, the Architect's Contract, and all other contracts and agreements relating to the Project or the construction of the Improvements.
Construction Contracts Lessee has entered into contracts with the Contractors or separate contracts with materialmen and laborers providing for the construction of the Improvements. Lessee will cause the Contractors to promptly furnish Lessor with the complete list of all Sub-contractors or entities as and when under contract, which Contractors propose to engage to furnish labor and/or materials in constructing the Improvements (such list containing the names, addresses, and amounts of such sub-contracts as written in excess individually of $5,000, and prior to disbursement of funds to or for the benefit of such Subcontractors, affidavits of authorized signatory and other documents commercially reasonably required by Title to insure that the Leased Premises remain lien free) and will from time to time furnish Lessor or Title with true copies of all Contracts entered into by Lessee and with the terms of all verbal agreements therefor, if any, and as to subcontractors, letters signed by sub-contractors whose contracts are in excess of $5,000 setting forth the present amount of their contract and the amounts remaining to be paid under that contract, if the same information is not stated on a lien waiver reflecting the most currently requested payment to such subcontractor.
Plans and Specifications Tenant shall be solely responsible for the preparation of the final architectural, electrical and mechanical construction drawings, plans and specifications (called “plans”) necessary for Tenant to construct the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, which plans shall be subject to approval by Landlord’s architect and engineers and shall comply with their reasonable requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building. Landlord’s approval is solely given for the benefit of Landlord, and neither Tenant nor any third party shall have the right to rely upon Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans for any purpose whatsoever other than that Landlord does not object thereto under this Lease. Landlord’s architects and engineers shall respond (with approval or disapproval) to any plan submission by Tenant within 8 business days after Landlord’s receipt thereof. If Landlord fails to respond to any such submission within such 8 business day period, which failure continues for more than 2 business days after Tenant gives Landlord a written notice (the “Deemed Approved Notice”) advising Landlord that such plan submission shall be deemed approved within 2 business days of Landlord’s receipt of the Deemed Approved Notice, then such plan submission shall be deemed approved hereunder. The Deemed Approved Notice shall, in order to be effective, contain on the first page thereof, in a font at least twice as large as the font of any other text contained in such notice, a legend substantially as follows: “FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE WITHIN TWO (2) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER RECEIPT HEREOF SHALL CONSTITUTE LANDLORD’S APPROVAL OF SUBMITTED PLANS.” In the event Landlord’s architect’s or engineers’ approval of Tenant’s plans is withheld or conditioned, Landlord shall send prompt written notification thereof to Tenant and include a reasonably detailed statement identifying the reasons for such refusal or condition, and Tenant shall promptly have the plans revised by its architect to incorporate all reasonable objections and conditions presented by Landlord and shall resubmit such plans to Landlord. Landlord’s architects and engineers shall respond (with approval or disapproval) to any plan re-submission by Tenant within 8 business days after Landlord’s receipt thereof. Such process shall be followed until the plans shall have been approved by Landlord’s architect and engineers without unreasonable objection or condition. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Tenant’s plans (including, without limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenant’s furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. Tenant agrees it shall be solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission of all such plans and for all elements of the design of such plans and for all costs related thereto. (The word “architect” as used in this Section 3.2 shall include an interior designer or space planner.) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred in connection with the review of Tenant’s plans.
APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS The Plans and Specifications will conform to the requirements and conditions set out by applicable law or any effective restrictive covenant, and to all governmental authorities which exercise jurisdiction over the Leased Premises or the construction thereon.
MODIFICATION OF CONTRACT This Agreement cannot be modified by tender, acceptance or endorsement of any instrument of payment, including check. Any words contained in an instrument of payment modifying this contract, including a waiver or release of any claims, or a statement referring to paying in full is void. This Agreement can only be modified in a separate writing, other than an instrument of payment, signed by the parties.

All Construction Documents shall comply with Applicable Laws and with the drawing format and specifications provided by Landlord, and shall be subject to Landlord’s review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall be responsible for Landlord’s third party plan review fees.

In the event that Landlord does not approve or disapprove Tenant’s proposed Construction Documents within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof, then Tenant may send a second notice to Landlord with a legend in bold and prominent print stating that “FAILURE TO REPLY TO THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF THE TENANT PLANS WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS MAY BE DEEMED TO BE LANDLORD’S APPROVAL” and, if Landlord fails to approve or disapprove of such Tenant plans within five (5) business days following delivery of such second notice, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Construction Documents in question. All approvals, inspections, and requirements of Landlord with respect to any Construction Documents and Finish Work shall be for Landlord’s benefit only, may not be relied on by Tenant (other than for purposes of evidencing Landlord’s consent), and shall not affect Tenant’s responsibility for the same. The Finish Work shall mean the work shown on the final, approved Construction Documents, as affected by any approved Finish Work Change Orders (as defined below), and shall include all work in the “Tenant” column on the allocation of responsibility attached as Attachment 1. Where more than one type of material or structure is indicated on the approved Construction Documents as permitted substitutions, the decisions regarding the selection of which type of material or structure among those shown will be within Tenant’s reasonable discretion if the matter concerns the Finish Work, and within Landlord’s reasonable discretion if the matter affects the structural components of the Building or any Building systems.
