Payments and Completion Payments may be withheld because of (1) defective work not remedied; (2) failure of contractor to make proper payments to subcontractors, workers, or suppliers; (3) persistent failure to carry out work in acceptance with this Agreement or these general conditions, or (4) legal claims. Final payment will be due after complete release of any and all liens arising out of the contract or submission of receipts or other evidence of payment covering all subcontractors or suppliers who could file such a lien. The contractor agrees to indemnify the Owner against such liens and will refund all monies including costs and reasonable attorney’s fees paid by the owner in discharging the liens. A 10 percent holdback is required by the lender to assure the work has been properly completed and there are no liens against the property.
FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT 9.9.1 Upon receipt of written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final Application for Payment, the Architect will promptly make such
9.9.2 Neither the final payment nor the remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the Architect (1) an affidavit that all payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the State or its property might in any way be responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied; (2) consent of surety, if any, to final payment; (3) Other data establishing payment or satisfaction of all such obligations, including, but not limited to, receipts, releases, or other supporting documentation. and (4) final waivers of liens arising out of the Contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the State. If any Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the State, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to the State to indemnify him against any such lien. If any such lien remains unsatisfied after all payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the State all moneys that the latter may be compelled to pay in discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
9.9.3 If, after Substantial Completion of the Work, final completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the Contractor or by the issuance of Change Orders affecting final completion, and the Architect so confirms, the State shall, upon application by the Contractor and certification by the Architect, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Contract Documents, and if bonds have been furnished as required by the Contract Documents, the written consent of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Architect prior to certification of such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims.
9.9.4 The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the State except those arising from:
(a) unsettled liens,
(b) faulty or defective Work appearing after Substantial Completion,
(c) failure of the Work to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents, or
(d) terms of any special warranties required by the Contract Documents.
9.9.5 The acceptance of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the Contractor except those previously made in writing and identified by the Contractor as unsettled at the time of the final Application for Payment.

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.
