Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for compliance of Landlord’s TI Work with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and all similar or related requirements pertaining to access by persons with disabilities, but nothing in this sentence shall be construed to make Landlord responsible for bearing the cost of any such compliance, to the extent the compliance work is reasonably attributable to or related to the particular nature or design of the Tenant Improvements or is for any other reason expressly made Tenant’s cost or responsibility under any applicable provision of the Lease or of this Workletter. Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decide whether and to what extent to use union labor on or in connection with Landlord’s Work, and shall use the TI General Contractor to construct all of Landlord’s TI Work. Landlord and Tenant shall each have a right to approve all subcontractors engaged in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements and to review and approve all competitive bids for any elements of the Tenant Improvements, such approval in each instance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by either party.
Construction of the Tenant Improvements (a) Tenant shall construct and install the Tenant Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, in compliance with all Laws and in accordance with this Exhibit B.

Tenant shall have no right to make any Tenant Improvements that would materially alter the exterior appearance of the Building or the Building systems without Landlord’s prior approval. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the CDs in which to review the CDs and in which to give Tenant written notice of its approval of the CDs or its requested changes to the CDs in reasonably sufficient detail so as to allow Tenant to make the requested changes (provided that Landlord shall not be permitted to request a change that is inconsistent with the Preliminary Plans). If Landlord requests any changes to the CDs, Tenant shall make such changes and shall, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of Landlord’s requested changes (if any), submit the revised portion of the CDs to Landlord.

Construction Work The regulation at 41 C.F.R. § 60-1.3 defines “construction work” as the construction, rehabilitation, alteration, conversion, extension, demolition or repair of buildings, highways, or other changes or improvements to real property, including facilities providing utility services. The term also includes the supervision, inspection, and other onsite functions incidental to the actual construction.
Construction of the Improvements Once development of the Property has commenced, the construction of the Improvements shall be pursued with due diligence and continuity, in a good and workmanlike manner, and in accordance with sound building and engineering practices, all applicable governmental requirements, and the Development Plan. Borrower shall not permit cessation of work for a period in excess of thirty (30) days during any period of time during which development on the Property is scheduled to be performed without the prior written consent of Lender, which may be given or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion, except for delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God, war, unavailability of labor or materials, governmental laws, regulations or restrictions and Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of any such delays; provided, however, that in no event shall work cease for a period in excess of sixty (60) days regardless of the cause. Borrower shall cause all materials supplied for, or intended to be utilized in, the development of any part of the Property, but not affixed to or incorporated into the Property, to be stored on the Property or at such other location as may be approved by Lender in writing, with adequate safeguards, as required by Lender, to prevent loss, theft, damage, or commingling with other materials or projects.

Expansion of Premises (a) Effective as of the Expansion Date the Premises (and the definition of the “Premises”) shall be modified to mean and include both the Initial Premises and the Expansion Premises. As a result of such expansion, effective upon the Expansion Date, the deemed square footage of the Premises shall be and become 31,684 square feet and Tenant’s Prorata Share and Tenant’s Share of Expenses and Real Estate Taxes shall be one hundred percent (100.00%).
(b) If Landlord, for any reason whatsoever, cannot deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant on before August 1, 2012 for the purpose specified in Section 3(c), this Amendment shall not be void or voidable, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, and Tenant shall have no obligation to pay monthly Base Rent or Additional Charges with respect to the Expansion Premises until the day following the date on which possession of the Expansion Premises is delivered to Tenant (such date thereupon becoming the “Expansion Date” for purposes of this Amendment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord is unable to deliver the Expansion Premises by August 1, 2012 (as extended day-for-day for each day of Force Majeure Delay) (the “Expansion Premises Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant shall have the right, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Amendment to Lease by providing written notice to Landlord within fifteen (15) business days following the Expansion Premises Outside Delivery Date, in which event the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if the parties had not entered into this Amendment and Landlord shall promptly return to Tenant the August, 2012 Base Rent for the Expansion Premises paid by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of Section 6(d). For purposes hereof, the failure of the existing tenant of the Expansion Premises to vacate the Expansion Premises shall not be an event of Force Majeure Delay.
(c) Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall be entitled to early occupancy of the Expansion Premises at any time after the Expansion Premises Delivery Date for the sole purposes of (1) installing Tenant’s furniture and telephone and other communications cabling and (2) performing Tenant’s Expansion Work (defined below), provided that (i) Tenant covenants and agrees that Tenant and Tenant’s employees, agents or contractors will cooperate with Landlord to coordinate the performance and completion of the Landlord’s Expansion Work concurrently with Tenant’s Expansion Work, (ii) Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for delays in completing the Landlord’s Expansion Work which result from, are caused by or arise out of the interference by Tenant or Tenant’s employees, agents or contractors in the performance of the Landlord’s Expansion Work, (iii) Tenant and Tenant’s employees, agents and contractors shall promptly comply with any and all requests made by Landlord or Landlord’s contractor(s) that Tenant remove its property from those areas in or around which Landlord is performing the Landlord’s Expansion Work, and (iv) Landlord shall not be liable for, Tenant hereby waives all claims which Tenant may have against the Landlord Parties, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and defend Landlord against any and all claims or liability for any injury or damage to any person or property in or about the Expansion Premises resulting from or arising out of or in connection with the performance of Tenant’s Expansion Work (except to the extent arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord). Tenant’s early occupancy of the Expansion Premises for the sole purpose provided in this Section shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, provided that (x) the Premises shall not include the Expansion Premises until the Expansion Date, and (y) Tenant shall not be obligated to pay monthly Base Rent or Additional Charges with respect to the Expansion Premises for the period from the Expansion Premises Delivery Date until the Expansion Date.
(d) Within five (5) business days after the Expansion Date, the parties shall execute a letter confirming the Expansion Date and certifying that Tenant has accepted delivery of the Premises, in form substantially similar to EXHIBIT “D” attached to the Lease (the “Expansion Date Memorandum”). Either party’s failure to request execution of, or to execute, the Expansion Date Memorandum shall not in any way alter the Expansion Date.
Tenant Improvements Landlord shall cause the Core and Shell Contractor or another Contractor designated by Landlord and approved by Tenant, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (“TI Contractor”, and together with Core and Shell Contractor, “Contractor”) to commence and thereafter diligently prosecute the construction of the tenant improvements in the Premises pursuant to the Work Letter (the “Tenant Improvements”); provided, however, that before performing the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall prepare in good faith an estimated budget for the construction of the Tenant Improvements and deliver such budget to Tenant for Tenant’s written approval prior the start of construction (the “Budget”). Landlord and Tenant shall work together cooperatively and in good faith to achieve a mutually acceptable Budget. Landlord shall update the Budget for Tenant’s review and approval at reasonable intervals and shall notify Tenant in writing if the Budget is likely to be exceeded. If there is an indication that the Budget is likely to be exceeded, Landlord and Tenant shall work together cooperatively, if required by Tenant, to modify the scope of the Tenant Improvements to bring the same in line with a budget reasonably acceptable to Tenant. The Tenant Improvements shall be performed in a workmanlike manner and shall substantially conform with Applicable Laws and the Approved TI Plans (as defined in the Work Letter). Tenant shall pay all TI Costs, except that Landlord shall pay for TI Costs that do not exceed the TI Allowance. The “TI Allowance” shall mean (a) One Hundred Twenty Five Dollars ($125.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Initial TI Allowance”), together with (b) the Additional Allowance. The “TI Costs” shall mean all Tenant Core and Shell Costs (as defined in the Work Letter) and all costs and expenses of performing the TI Work, including without limitation the hard and soft costs of (i) construction, (ii) the Construction Management Fee (as such term is defined in the Work Letter) and any Project or construction management fees paid by Tenant to an unaffiliated third party (such fees not to exceed three percent (3%) of the TI Allowance), (iii) space planning, design, architect, engineering, data and phone cabling and other related services, (iv) costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment, data and phone cabling and fixtures (including, without limitation, any of the Attached Property (as defined in Section 18.5), (v) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by governmental and quasi-governmental agencies for permits or for inspections of the Tenant Improvements, and (vi) the Warm Shell Costs. In no event shall the TI Allowance be used for: (w) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, (x) costs resulting from a Tenant Delay, (y) costs resulting from any default by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease, or (z) costs that are recoverable or reasonably recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors). In the event the estimated total TI Costs (as set forth in the Budget) exceed the TI Allowance, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord such overage (the “TI Allowance Excess”), within five (5) business days of receiving the Budget (the “TI Deposit”). In the event Landlord determines the estimate of the TI Costs set forth in the Budget underestimates the amount of TI Costs so that the TI Deposit will not be sufficient to cover the TI Allowance Excess, then Landlord shall communicate the same to Tenant and, if required by Tenant, the parties shall discuss revisions to the Budget and Tenant may make a TI Tenant Change Order Request to reduce TI Costs, and unless the TI Costs are reduced to be within the Budget and previously paid TI Deposit, Tenant shall promptly pay the additional amount to Landlord, and such additional amount shall be added to the TI Deposit. If the sum of the TI Allowance plus the TI Deposit is not sufficient to cover the TI Costs, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the difference between (a) the TI Costs and (b) the sum of the TI Allowance and the TI Deposit. However, Landlord shall be solely responsible for any costs related to the Tenant Improvements to the extent the same result from Landlord’s gross negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall work together cooperatively at no cost or risk to Landlord to maximize Tenant’s ability, to the extent reasonably possible, to obtain the benefit of any applicable research and development tax credits with respect to the Tenant Improvements.
LANDLORD'S ACCESS TO PREMISES Landlord reserves and shall at any time upon reasonable notice and in compliance with Tenant’s reasonable security measures have the right to enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply any service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder to service and repair HVAC units, water pipes and sprinkler mains, and electrical and telephone risers servicing other parts of the Building, to show said Premises to prospective purchasers or tenants, to alter or repair the Premises or any portion of the Building, and to place “for sale” or “for rent” signs on the Building, all without being deemed guilty of an eviction of Tenant and without abatement of Rent, provided that the business of Tenant shall be interfered with as little as is reasonably practicable. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages or any inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of quiet enjoyment of the Premises and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock the main door to the Premises but not Tenant’s vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said door in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises, and any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof. No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decoration except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord.
