If Landlord does not disapprove such proposal or modified proposal in writing with a detailed explanation of Landlord's objections to Tenant's modifications within seven (7) days after receipt of Tenant's reminder notice, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Alterations proposed by Tenant.

Tenant specifically waives all rights it may have under Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code, and any similar or successor statute or law.
