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.
Construction Plans Tenant shall prepare final plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvements that (a) are consistent with and are logical evolutions of the Approved Schematic Plans and (b) incorporate any other Tenant-requested (and Landlord-approved) Changes (as defined below). As soon as such final plans and specifications ("Construction Plans") are completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such Construction Plans shall be submitted by Tenant to Landlord in electronic .pdf, CADD and full-size hard copy formats, and shall be approved or disapproved by Landlord within ten (10) business days after delivery to Landlord. Landlord's failure to respond within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed approval by Landlord. If the Construction Plans are disapproved by Landlord, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its objections to such Construction Plans, and the parties shall confer and negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the Construction Plans. Promptly after the Construction Plans are approved by Landlord and Tenant, two (2) copies of such Construction Plans shall be initialed and dated by Landlord and Tenant, and Tenant shall promptly submit such Construction Plans to all appropriate Governmental Authorities for approval. The Construction Plans so approved, and all change orders approved (to the extent required) by Landlord, are referred to herein as the "Approved Plans."
Specifications That part of the Contract Documents consisting of written requirements for materials, equipment, systems, standards, and workmanship as applied to the Work, and certain administrative requirements and procedural matters applicable thereto. The term "Specifications" shall also include all written matter in the Project Manual or on the drawings and any Addenda or Change Orders thereto.
Tenant Improvements a. Tenant shall cause to be constructed certain tenant improvements (including those listed in Sections 7(e), 7(f) and 7(g) below) in the Additional Premises (“Tenant’s Work”) pursuant to the Work Letter attached as Exhibit E hereto (the “Work Letter”). Landlord shall provide Tenant with an improvement allowance in an amount not to exceed Nine Hundred Five Thousand Five Hundred Thirty-Five Dollars ($905,535) (based upon Forty-Five Dollars ($45) per rentable square foot) (the “TI Allowance”). The TI Allowance may be used to pay for the following costs related to Tenant’s Work: (i) construction, (ii) project oversight by Landlord (which fee shall equal three percent (3%) of the TI Allowance), (iii) space planning, architect, engineering and other related services performed by third parties unaffiliated with Tenant and (iv) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by Governmental Authorities for permits or for inspections of Tenant’s Work. In no event shall the TI Allowance be used for: (v) payments to Tenant or any affiliates of Tenant, (w) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, (x) the cost of work that is not authorized by the Approved Plans or otherwise approved in writing by Landlord, (y) costs resulting from any default by Tenant of its obligations under the Amended Lease or (z) costs that are recoverable or reasonably recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors). If the total cost of Tenant’s Work exceeds Forty-Five Dollars ($45) per rentable square foot of the Additional Premises, then Tenant shall pay the overage as and when due. Tenant shall have until December 31, 2008, to expend any unused portion of the TI Allowance, after which date Landlord’s obligation to fund such costs shall expire. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (Y) a certificate of occupancy for the Additional Premises suitable for the permitted use and (Z) a Certificate of Substantial Completion in the form of the American Institute of Architects document G704, executed by the project architect with respect to Tenant’s Work in the Additional Premises.
Final Plans Within fifteen (15) business days after Landlord and Tenant's approval of the preliminary budget for the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall cause the Architect to deliver to Landlord, for Landlord's review and approval, complete plans, specifications and working drawings which incorporate and are consistent with Preliminary Plans and the preliminary budget, as previously approved by Landlord, and which show in detail the intended design, construction and finishing of all portions of Tenant Improvements, in sufficient detail for construction ("Final Plans"). Within ten (10) business days after Landlord's receipt of Final Plans, Landlord shall either approve or disapprove Final Plans, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Landlord disapproves Final Plans, then Landlord shall state in reasonable detail the changes which Landlord requires to be made thereto. If Landlord disapproves the Final Plans, then Landlord shall state in reasonable detail the changes which Landlord requires to be made thereto. Tenant shall submit to Landlord revised Final Plans within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's disapproval notice. Following Landlord's receipt of the revised Final Plans from Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to review and approve the revised Final Plans pursuant to this Section 2.2.3. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its approval or disapproval of the revised Final Plans within five (5) business days after the date of Landlord's receipt thereof. If Landlord reasonably disapproves the revised Final Plans, then the following shall occur: (i) Landlord and Tenant shall continue to follow the procedures set forth in this Section 2.2.3 until Landlord and Tenant reasonably approve such Final Plans in accordance with this Section 2.2.3, and (ii) the period between the date which is ten (10) business after Landlord's reasonable disapproval (or such earlier date if Landlord approves or disapproves the first revised Final Plans in a period less than the 5-business days provided Landlord above) and the eventual mutual approval of such Final Plans shall constitute a Tenant Delay.
