Landlord Repairs The services described in Section 4.01 (“Building Services”) and any repairs and maintenance required of Landlord may be curtailed or interrupted as required by any Applicable Laws or because of the maintenance, repair, replacement, or improvement of the equipment involved in furnishing such services or because of changes of the suppliers of services or because of labor controversies, accidents, acts of God, or the elements or any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control. Landlord agrees to attempt in good faith to resume any curtailed or interrupted Building Services that Landlord is obligated hereunder to provide after receipt of notice from Tenant advising Landlord of the affected services. Landlord shall not be required to make any improvements, replacements, or repairs of any kind or character to the Leased Premises during the Term of this Lease except as are set forth in this section. Landlord shall maintain only the electrical service to the Leased Premises, down spouts, fire sprinkler system, lawn and landscaping, paint on the exterior of the Leased Premises, exterior doors, roof, foundation, parking, sidewalk and drive areas, and the structural soundness of the exterior walls (excluding windows, window glass, plate glass, and doors), except for damages caused by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, guests, and invitees, which damage shall be repaired at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and which will constitute Additional Rent due hereunder upon demand by Landlord therefor. Landlord’s costs of maintaining the items set forth in this section (save and except for Landlord’s cost of maintaining the structural soundness, the roof, foundation, the exterior walls (excluding windows, window glass, and plate glass) which costs shall be Tenant’s sole responsibility) shall constitute a portion of Operating Expenses as defined in Section 2.03 and shall be subject to the Additional Rent provisions in Section 2.02.

In addition, if Landlord fails to perform any of its repair and maintenance obligations hereunder and such default is not cured by Landlord in accordance within thirty (30) days of written notice of such failure, then Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform such repair and maintenance obligations as are reasonably necessary to either (a) prevent any damage to Tenant’s inventory or other personal property and/or (b) obviate any material and adverse effects to Tenant’s business operations resulting therefrom. Any and all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by Tenant in performing any of Landlord’s maintenance obligations in accordance with the terms, conditions, and requirements of the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid by Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s receipt from Tenant of an itemized statement describing the repairs and/or maintenance performed.
Tenant’s Work Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that certain work required for Tenant's occupancy of the Leased Premises, including but not limited to the procurement and installation of furniture, fixtures, equipment, artwork and interior signage are beyond the scope of the Tenant Improvements and shall be performed by Tenant or its contractors at Tenant's sole cost and expense. All such work ("Tenant's Work") shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval. Tenant shall adopt a construction schedule for Tenant's Work in conformance with the Contractor's schedule, and shall perform Tenant's Work in such a way as not to hinder or delay the operations of Landlord or the Contractor in the Building. Any costs incurred by Landlord as a result of any interference with Landlord's operations by Tenant or its contractors shall be promptly paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. Landlord shall make all reasonable efforts to notify Tenant of any such interference of which Landlord has actual knowledge, but failure to provide such notice shall in no way limit Landlord's right to demand payment for such costs. Tenant's contractors shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, and to the administrative supervision of the Contractor. Tenant's Work shall comply with all of the following requirements:
(a) Tenant's Work shall not proceed until Landlord has approved in writing: (i) Tenant's contractors, (ii) proof of the amount and coverage of public liability and property damage insurance carried by Tenant's contractors in the form of an endorsed insurance certificate naming Landlord, the Contractor, and the agents of Landlord and the Contractor as additional insureds, in an amount not less than two million dollars, and (iii) complete and detailed plans and specifications for Tenant's Work.
(b) Tenant's Work shall be performed in conformity with a valid permit when required, a copy of which shall be furnished to Landlord before such work is commenced. In any event, all Tenant's Work shall comply with all applicable laws, codes and ordinances of any governmental entity having jurisdiction over the Building. Landlord shall have no responsibility for Tenant's failure to comply with such applicable laws. Any and all delay in obtaining a certificate of occupancy due to Tenant's vendors is the responsibility of Tenant and shall be a Tenant Delay.
(c) In connection with Tenant's Work (e.g., delivering or installing furniture or equipment to the second floor of the Leased Premises), Tenant or its contractors shall arrange for any necessary hoisting or elevator service with Landlord and shall pay such reasonable costs for such services as may be charged by Landlord.
(d) Tenant shall promptly pay Landlord upon demand for any extra expense incurred by Landlord by reason of faulty work done by Tenant or its contractors, by reason of damage to existing work caused by Tenant or its contractors, or by reason of inadequate cleanup by Tenant or its contractors.
Tenant’s Plans Tenant shall be solely responsible for the preparation of the final architectural, electrical and mechanical construction drawings, plans and specifications (called “Tenant’s Plans”) necessary to construct the Relocation Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, which plans shall be submitted to Landlord for approval by Landlord’s architect and engineers on or before June 1, 2012, and Tenant’s Plans shall comply with their requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building. Landlord’s architect and engineers shall respond to any plan submission by Tenant within five (5) Business Days after Landlord’s receipt thereof. In the event Landlord’s architect’s or engineers’ approval of Tenant’s Plans is withheld or conditioned (and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned), Landlord shall send written notification thereof to Tenant and include a reasonably detailed statement identifying the reasons for such refusal or condition, and Tenant shall have the plans revised by its architect to incorporate all reasonable objections and conditions presented by Landlord and shall resubmit such plans to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice of disapproval. Such process shall be followed until the plans shall have been approved by the Landlord’s architect and engineer without unreasonable objection or condition, except that after the initial five-(5)-Business-day period, any further submissions/resubmissions shall be made within three (3) Business Days. If Landlord fails to respond to submitted plans within the applicable period set forth above, then the September 10, 2012, date set forth in the table incorporated in Section III.A below shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for each day that any such failure continues. 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 Relocation 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 shall be solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission of all such Tenant Plans and for all elements of the design of such Tenant’s Plans and for all costs related thereto. (The word “architect” as used in this Section II (C) shall include an interior designer or space planner.)
Tenant Work Before commencing any repair or Alteration (“Tenant Work”), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, and obtain Landlord’s approval of, (a) names of contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers and materialmen; (b) evidence of contractors’ and subcontractors’ insurance; and (c) any required governmental permits. Tenant shall perform all Tenant Work (i) in a good and workmanlike manner using materials of a quality reasonably approved by Landlord; (ii) in compliance with any approved plans and specifications, all Laws, the National Electric Code, and Landlord’s construction rules and regulations; and (iii) in a manner that does not impair the Base Building. If, as a result of any Tenant Work, Landlord becomes required under Law to perform any inspection, give any notice, or cause such Tenant Work to be performed in any particular manner, Tenant shall comply with such requirement and promptly provide Landlord with reasonable documentation of such compliance. Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications shall not relieve Tenant from any obligation under this Section 7.3. In performing any Tenant Work, Tenant shall not use contractors, services, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, would disturb labor harmony with any workforce or trades engaged in performing other work or services at the Project.
