If there are any reasonable objections not addressed by revised Plans, the review procedure shall be repeated until all Tenant's objections are reasonably satisfied. If Tenant has not fully approved the Plans within sixty (60) days after the date such plans were first submitted to Tenant hereunder, Landlord at its sole election may terminate this Lease. Tenant shall timely sign and submit to Landlord a Certificate of Approval of Tenant Improvement Plans in the form as shown in Exhibit "F" attached to this Lease and incorporated herein by this reference ("Certificate").

Landlord’s Work will be deemed substantially completed even if Landlord has not completed “punch list” or other minor items, as long as (i) Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to complete these items within thirty (30) days of signing the punch-list, excluding any items which require special materials or equipment that are unavailable; and (ii) the punch-list items can be completed after Tenant’s occupancy without causing substantial interference with Tenant’s use of the Premises.

Expansion of Premises Provided that the demising wall is erected in the location specified on Exhibit A attached hereto, for purposes of calculating Fixed Monthly Rent and Tenant’s Share the parties hereby stipulate that the Expansion Premises contains approximately 9,271 square feet of Rentable Area and approximately 7,836 square feet of Usable Area. As of the Expansion Date, the definition of the Premises shall be revised to include both the Existing Premises and the Expansion Space, and wherever in the Lease the word “Premises” is found, it shall thereafter refer to both the Existing Premises and the Expansion Space together, as if the same had been originally included in said Lease, subject to the terms and conditions of this First Amendment. Landlord and Tenant agree that a recalculation of the Usable Area of the Expansion Space shall be made after the Expansion Date by Xxxxxxxxx Systems, Inc., an independent planning firm, using the 2010 ANSI/BOMA Standard set forth collectively by the American National Standards Institute and the Building Owners and Managers Association (“ANSI/BOMA Standard”), as a guideline, and that Landlord is utilizing a deemed add-on factor of 18.31% to compute the Rentable Area of the Expansion Space. Tenant and Landlord agree to document the revised Usable Area as documented by Xxxxxxxxx Systems, and the other matters specified below that will be determined upon such Usable Area being confirmed, in the Memorandum (as defined in Section 4 below). Landlord and Tenant further agree that the Rentable Area of the Expansion Space shall be calculated on the basis of 1.1831 times the estimated Usable Area, regardless of what actual common areas of the Building may be, or whether they may be more or less than 18.31% of the total estimated Usable Area of the Building, and is provided solely to give a general basis for comparison and pricing of this space in relation to other spaces in the market area. Landlord and Tenant further agree that once the Rentable Area and Usable Area of the Expansion Space have been determined as specified hereinabove, even if later either party alleges that the actual Rentable Area or Usable Area of the Expansion Space is more or less than the figures stated herein; and whether or not such figures are inaccurate, for all purposes of the Lease, the Rentable and Usable figures agreed upon shall be conclusively deemed to be the Rentable Area, or Usable Area of the Expansion Space, as the case may be. Notwithstanding any adjustment in the Usable Area and/or Rentable Area as determined pursuant to this Section 4, and provided the demising wall is erected in the location indicated on Exhibit A attached hereto and the Expansion Space plan as depicted on Exhibit A is not modified after this First Amendment is executed, there shall be no change in the Fixed Monthly Rent due for the Expansion Space as set forth in Section 5.2, below or in Tenant’s Share as set forth in Section 6, below. As of the Expansion Date, the total Usable Area of the Premises shall be 27,983 square feet and the total Rentable Area of the Premises shall be 31,338 square feet, subject to confirmation of the Usable Area and Rentable Area as provided above. [***] = CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THIS OMITTED INFORMATION. If the demising wall is erected in a location different from that as indicated on Exhibit A attached hereto, or if the Expansion Space plan as depicted on Exhibit A is otherwise modified after this First Amendment is executed, and if as a result the Rentable Area of the Expansion Space is increased or decreased pursuant to this Section 4 then (a) the Fixed Monthly Rent commencing on the first calendar day of the thirteenth (13th) calendar month after the Expansion Date shall be recalculated based on $2.13 per square foot of Rentable Area of the Expansion Space, per month; (b) thereafter, the Fixed Monthly Rent shall be adjusted to result in an increase of three percent (3%) per annum, cumulative over the Expansion Term; (c) as of the Expansion Date, Security Deposit for the Expansion Space shall be adjusted to an amount equal to one month’s Fixed Monthly Rent for the Expansion Space due during the last year of the Term; (d) as of the Expansion Date, if the Usable Area of the Expansion Space is increased or decreased pursuant to this Section 4, then “Tenant’s Share” as set forth herein for the Expansion Space shall be increased or decreased equally, by dividing the newly calculated Usable Area of the Expansion Space by the Usable Area of the Building; (e) the Allowance shall equal $32.50 per square foot of Rentable Area within Expansion Space; and (f) all other amounts based on the Usable Area of the Expansion Space or Rentable Area of the Expansion Space shall be adjusted appropriately. Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute a memorandum (the “Memorandum”) confirming the finalized Delivery Date, Expansion Date, the Fixed Monthly Rent escalation dates as described in Section 5.b. below, and the other matters specified above as soon as they are determined. Tenant shall execute the Memorandum and return it to Landlord within fifteen (15) business days after receipt thereof. Failure of Tenant to timely execute and deliver the Memorandum shall constitute an acknowledgement by Tenant that the statements included in such Memorandum are true and correct.
Building and Improvements Lessor shall obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy or policies in the name of Lessor, with loss payable to Lessor and to any Lender(s), insuring against loss or damage to the Premises. Such insurance shall be for full replacement cost, as the same shall exist from time to time, or the amount required by any Lender(s), but in no event more than the commercially reasonable and available insurable value thereof if, by reason of the unique nature or age of the improvements involved, such latter amount is less than full replacement cost. Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures and Lessee's personal property shall be insured by Lessee pursuant to Paragraph 8.4. If the coverage is available and commercially appropriate, Lessor's policy or policies shall insure against all risks of direct physical loss or damage (except the perils of flood and/or earthquake unless required by a Lender), including coverage for any additional costs resulting from debris removal and reasonable amounts of coverage for the enforcement of any ordinance or law regulating the reconstruction or replacement of any undamaged sections of the Building required to be demolished or removed by reason of the enforcement of any building, zoning, safety or land use laws as the result of a covered loss, but not including plate glass insurance. Said policy or policies shall also contain an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any co-insurance clause, waiver of subrogation, and inflation guard protection causing an increase in the annual property insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the city nearest to where the Premises are located.
