Subject to such agreements, none of the Limited Partners nor any other Person shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement or the partnership relationship established hereby in any business ventures of any other Person, other than the Limited Partners benefiting from the business conducted by the General Partner, and such Person shall have no obligation pursuant to this Agreement to offer any interest in any such business ventures to the Partnership, any Limited Partner or any such other Person, even if such opportunity is of a character which, if presented to the Partnership, any Limited Partner or such other Person, could be taken by such Person.
Admission of Limited Partners It is expressly agreed that this Agreement may be amended from time to time to reflect the admission of additional Limited Partners and the Company shall have full power and authority to execute and file such amendments pursuant to the power of attorney contained herein.

Landlord’s General Conditions for Tenant’s Agents and Tenant Improvement Work Tenant’s and Tenant’s Agent’s construction of the Tenant Improvements shall comply with the following: (i) the Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in strict accordance with the Approved Working Drawings; (ii) Tenant’s Agents shall submit schedules of all work relating to the Tenant’s Improvements to Contractor and Contractor shall, within five (5) business days of receipt thereof, inform Tenant’s Agents of any changes which are necessary thereto, and Tenant’s Agents shall adhere to such corrected schedule; and (iii) Tenant shall abide by all rules made by Landlord’s Building manager with respect to the use of freight, loading dock and service elevators, storage of materials, coordination of work with the contractors of other tenants, and any other matter in connection with this Tenant Work Letter, including, without limitation, the construction of the Tenant Improvements.
Tenants Selection of Contractors Tenant hereby agrees to the retention by Landlord of Erland Construction, Inc., on behalf of Tenant, for the construction of the Tenant Improvements ("Contractor"). Tenant further agrees that Contractor will be retained on a construction management basis at a fee equal to three and nine-tenths percent (3.9%) of the cost of Tenant Improvements. Contractor shall retain only subcontractors designated by Landlord in connection with any structural, fire sprinkler, or heating, air-conditioning or ventilation work to be performed in the Premises or for any work to be done to the Base Building or the Building Systems.
Overstandard Tenant Use If Tenant uses water, electricity, heat or air conditioning in excess of that supplied by Landlord pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon billing, the cost of such excess utility consumption, the cost of the installation, operation, and maintenance of equipment which is required to be installed in order to supply such excess consumption; and, to the extent no previously installed, Landlord may install devices to separately sub-meter any increased use and in such event Tenant shall pay the increased cost directly to Landlord, on demand, at the rates charged by the public utility company furnishing the same, including the cost of such additional metering (or sub-metering) devices. Tenant’s use of electricity shall never exceed the capacity of the feeders to the Property or the risers or wiring installation; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right, subject to the terms of Article 8, to increase such capacity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant may operate the HVAC within the Premises at its discretion; provided, however, if Tenant desires to use heat, ventilation or air conditioning during hours other than those for which Landlord is obligated to supply such utilities pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the actual cost of supplying chilled water and gas to the Premises during non-Building Hours at the actual rates charged by the utilities, which cost shall be equitably prorated among all Building occupants (other than the Bank) operating HVAC during the same non-Building Hours. For purposes of an example, Exhibit K, attached hereto, sets forth the calculation of such actual utilities costs, with the actual calculation being subject to the actual rates charged by the utilities. Landlord shall, at its sole cost, as part of the Core and Shell Work, provide a cloud-based software system (Workspeed) to allow Tenant to control Tenant’s after-hours HVAC.
Access by Landlord Landlord and any of Landlord’s Invitees shall have the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times, during normal business hours if feasible under the circumstances, and upon 24 hours’ notice, if feasible under the circumstances, (i) to determine whether the Premises are in good condition and whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease, (ii) to do any necessary maintenance or make any restoration to the Premises that Landlord has the right or obligation to perform, (iii) to serve, post, or keep posted any notices required or allowed under this Lease, (v) to post “for sale” or “for rent” or “for lease” signs during the final nine months of the Term, (vi) to show the Premises to brokers, lenders, agents, prospective buyers, prospective tenants, or other persons interested in a listing of, financing, purchasing, or occupying the Project, the Premises or any portion of the Project or the Premises, and (vii) to shore the foundations, footings, and walls of the Project, and to erect scaffolding and protective barricades around and about the Premises, but not so as to prevent entry to the Premises, and to do any other act or thing necessary for the safety or preservation of the Premises if any excavation or other construction is undertaken or is about to be undertaken on any adjacent property or nearby street. In the event of an emergency Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, without prior notice to Tenant. Landlord’s rights under this Paragraph extend, with Landlord’s consent, to the owner of adjacent property on which excavation or construction is to take place and the adjacent property owner’s agents, employees, officers, and contractors. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience, disturbance, loss of business, nuisance, or other damage arising out of any entry on the Premises as provided in this Paragraph except damage resulting directly from the grossly negligent acts or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s Invitees. Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Basic Monthly Rent or other Rent because of the exercise by Landlord of any rights under this Paragraph.
Rights of Limited Partners Relating to the Partnership (a) In addition to the other rights provided by this Agreement or by the Act, and except as limited by Section 8.5(b) hereof, each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner shall have the right, for a purpose reasonably related to such Person’s interest as a limited partner in the Partnership, upon written demand with a statement of the purpose of such demand and at such Person’s own expense (including such reasonable copying and administrative charges as the General Partner may establish from time to time):
INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY AND THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP The Company and the Operating Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, equity holders, partners and employees (the “Indemnitees,” and each an “Indemnitee”), from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, and to the extent that such indemnification would not be inconsistent with the laws of the State of Maryland, the Articles of Incorporation or the provisions of Section II.G of the NASAA REIT Guidelines. Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only out of the net assets of the Company and not from Stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Operating Partnership shall not provide for indemnification of an Indemnitee for any loss or liability suffered by such Indemnitee, nor shall they provide that an Indemnitee be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by the Company and the Operating Partnership, unless all of the following conditions are met:
Operating Partnership Agreement The Operating Partnership Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, shall have been executed and delivered by the partners of the Operating Partnership and shall be in full force and effect and, except as contemplated by Section 2.03 or the other Formation Transaction Documents, shall not have been amended or modified.
