Permitted Alterations Tenant shall not make or permit ATIONS any Alterations in, on or about the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and according to plans and specifications approved in writing by Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. For purposes of this Lease, "Alterations" shall mean any alterations, additions or improvements made in, on or about the Premises after the Commencement Date, including, but not limited to, lighting, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, electrical, partitioning, fixtures, drapery and carpentry installations; provided, however, that Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, may install its necessary trade fixtures, equipment and furniture in the Premises without Landlord's consent, provided that such items are installed and are removable without damage to the Project or to any of its electrical, mechanical or plumbing systems, and such alterations do not cost more than $10,000.00 each. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may withhold Landlord's consent in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, on wholly aesthetic grounds) to any: (i) alterations to the exterior or structural component of the Building, including, without limitation, exterior walls and roof of the Building; and (ii) alterations visible from outside the Building, including Outside Areas. All alterations shall be installed at: Tenant's sole expense, in compliance with all applicable laws and the CC&R's by Landlord's contractor, shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner conforming in quality and design with the Premises existing as of the Commencement Date, and shall not diminish the value of the Premises. Landlord shall have the right to require that all Alterations shall be of first class quality consistent with the quality of the Project. All alterations made by Tenant, or by Landlord at Tenant's expense, shall at the termination or expiration of the Lease become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises; provided, however, that Landlord may, at its option, require that Tenant, at Tenant's expense, remove any or all nonstructural Alterations installed by Tenant, or by Landlord at Tenant's expense, and return the Premises to their condition as of the Commencement Date of this Lease, normal wear and tear excepted and subject to the provisions of Paragraph 13. If requested by Tenant, Landlord shall inform Tenant at the time Landlord consents to the Alteration as to whether or not the Alteration in question must be removed from the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the maintenance and repair of any and all Alterations to the Premises made by Tenant, or by Landlord at Tenant's expense.
Landlord’s Consent to Alterations Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion with respect to any Alterations which may adversely affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment in more than a de minimis manner (e.g., the mere tying into Systems shall not be subject to the sole discretion standard) or which can be seen from outside the Building. Tenant shall pay (i) for Alterations performed by Tenant, Landlord’s reasonable third-party costs incurred in connection with reviewing such Alterations, and (ii) for Alterations for which Tenant has engaged Landlord to supervise and Landlord’s contractors to perform, a supervision fee of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the total cost of such Alteration (for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing supervisory fee shall not be due or payable in connection with the Tenant Improvements and the Vivarium improvements and no supervisory fee shall be due or payable in connection with any capital improvements performed by Landlord). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Landlord approval shall be required (provided advance notice shall be provided to Landlord) for (a) installation, removal or realignment of furniture systems not involving any modifications to the structure or connections (other than by ordinary plugs or jacks) to the Systems, (b) Alterations which could not reasonably be expected to affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment and which cost less than $150,000 for any one (1) job and no more than $300,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year during the Lease Term (excluding any costs for painting, carpeting, and similar purely cosmetic work), (c) Alterations which do not require a building permit, and (d) merely cosmetic work (such as painting and carpeting). The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8.
