APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS The Plans and Specifications will conform to the requirements and conditions set out by applicable law or any effective restrictive covenant, and to all governmental authorities which exercise jurisdiction over the Leased Premises or the construction thereon.
Plans and Specifications Tenant shall be solely responsible for the preparation of the final architectural, electrical and mechanical construction drawings, plans and specifications (called “plans”) necessary for Tenant to construct the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, which plans shall be subject to approval by Landlord’s architect and engineers and shall comply with their reasonable requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building. Landlord’s approval is solely given for the benefit of Landlord, and neither Tenant nor any third party shall have the right to rely upon Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans for any purpose whatsoever other than that Landlord does not object thereto under this Lease. Landlord’s architects and engineers shall respond (with approval or disapproval) to any plan submission by Tenant within 8 business days after Landlord’s receipt thereof. If Landlord fails to respond to any such submission within such 8 business day period, which failure continues for more than 2 business days after Tenant gives Landlord a written notice (the “Deemed Approved Notice”) advising Landlord that such plan submission shall be deemed approved within 2 business days of Landlord’s receipt of the Deemed Approved Notice, then such plan submission shall be deemed approved hereunder. The Deemed Approved Notice shall, in order to be effective, contain on the first page thereof, in a font at least twice as large as the font of any other text contained in such notice, a legend substantially as follows: “FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE WITHIN TWO (2) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER RECEIPT HEREOF SHALL CONSTITUTE LANDLORD’S APPROVAL OF SUBMITTED PLANS.” In the event Landlord’s architect’s or engineers’ approval of Tenant’s plans is withheld or conditioned, Landlord shall send prompt written notification thereof to Tenant and include a reasonably detailed statement identifying the reasons for such refusal or condition, and Tenant shall promptly have the plans revised by its architect to incorporate all reasonable objections and conditions presented by Landlord and shall resubmit such plans to Landlord. Landlord’s architects and engineers shall respond (with approval or disapproval) to any plan re-submission by Tenant within 8 business days after Landlord’s receipt thereof. Such process shall be followed until the plans shall have been approved by Landlord’s architect and engineers without unreasonable objection or condition. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Tenant’s plans (including, without limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenant’s furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. Tenant agrees it shall be solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission of all such plans and for all elements of the design of such plans and for all costs related thereto. (The word “architect” as used in this Section 3.2 shall include an interior designer or space planner.) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred in connection with the review of Tenant’s plans.
Construction Plans Tenant shall prepare final plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvements that (a) are consistent with and are logical evolutions of the Approved Schematic Plans and (b) incorporate any other Tenant-requested (and Landlord-approved) Changes (as defined below). As soon as such final plans and specifications ("Construction Plans") are completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such Construction Plans shall be submitted by Tenant to Landlord in electronic .pdf, CADD and full-size hard copy formats, and shall be approved or disapproved by Landlord within ten (10) business days after delivery to Landlord. Landlord's failure to respond within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed approval by Landlord. If the Construction Plans are disapproved by Landlord, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its objections to such Construction Plans, and the parties shall confer and negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the Construction Plans. Promptly after the Construction Plans are approved by Landlord and Tenant, two (2) copies of such Construction Plans shall be initialed and dated by Landlord and Tenant, and Tenant shall promptly submit such Construction Plans to all appropriate Governmental Authorities for approval. The Construction Plans so approved, and all change orders approved (to the extent required) by Landlord, are referred to herein as the "Approved Plans."
Space Plans Within a commercially reasonable time period after the Execution Date, Tenant shall, at its sole expense (but subject to the Premises Construction Allowance), deliver to Landlord space plans prepared by an architect (“Architect”) chosen by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord in electronic Autocad format together with a full-size hard copy depicting all improvements and alterations desired by Tenant to be installed in or made to the Premises. Landlord shall notify Tenant whether it approves of such space plans within five (5) business days after receipt thereof. If Landlord disapproves of the space plans, Landlord shall notify Tenant thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Tenant shall revise the space plans in accordance with Landlord’s objections and submit revised space plans in accordance with subparagraph (a) above to Landlord for its review and approval. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether or not it approves of the resubmitted space plans within three (3) business days after its receipt thereof and, if Landlord disapproves, Landlord shall notify Tenant thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval. This process shall be repeated until the space plans have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord fails to approve or disapprove of the space plans or the resubmitted space plans, as the case may be, within the applicable time period set forth above in this Section 2.(a), and any such failure is not cured by Landlord within three (3) business days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord of such failure, then the space plans as submitted, or as resubmitted, as the case may be, shall be deemed approved by Landlord. As used herein, “Space Plans” means the Preliminary Spaces Plans finally approved or deemed approved by Landlord as provided above. Material changes to the Space Plans shall require Landlord’s prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. To the extent not attached hereto on the Execution Date, this Work Letter will be automatically amended to include as Annex 1 hereto the finally approved Space Plan.
Tenant Improvement Plans Any work proposed by Tenant at the Premises or Building (the “Tenant Improvements”) shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable prior approval and shall be subject to the other terms and conditions of this Exhibit, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed except for good cause shown. All architectural, engineering and other design fees shall be paid by Tenant, provided that, of the total Tenant Improvement Allowance, up to Five and No/100 Dollars (S5.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises of such fees may be subject to reimbursement under the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant shall use its architect, engineers and other design professionals, all of whom shall comply with any applicable licensing or governmental requirements of the City of Santa Xxxxx and the State of California. Tenant shall cause its architect, who shall be subject to Landlord’s prior approval (“Tenant’s Architect”), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed except for good cause shown, to prepare a draft space plan (the “Space Plan”) for the Tenant Improvements and shall submit the proposed Space Plan to Landlord for the latter’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) within twenty-one (21) days following mutual execution of the Lease. (If available upon mutual execution of this Lease, a mutually-approved preliminary space plan for the Tenant Improvements has been attached hereto as Exhibit C-1.) Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any written objections, questions or comments of Landlord with regard to the Space Plan, and Tenant shall cause the Space Plan to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said Space Plan to Landlord for approval within five (5) business days thereafter. Such process shall continue until Landlord has approved the Space Plan. Tenant’s Architect shall then prepare working drawings and specifications for the Tenant Improvements, including architectural, structural, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and fire protection drawings as required, suitable for permit application (the “Working Drawings”) and shall submit the proposed Working Drawings to Landlord for the latter’s approval within sixty (60) days following Landlord’s approval of the final Space Plan. The Space Plan and Working Drawings shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which Landlord agrees shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord shall not be deemed to have acted unreasonably if it withholds its approval thereof because, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion as supported by statement or reports from licensed engineers, the work, as described in any such item: (i) will adversely affect Building systems, the structure of the Building or the safety of the Building and/or their occupants; (ii) will materially impair Landlord’s ability to furnish services to Tenant or other tenants at the Project; (iii) would materially increase the cost of operating the Building; (iv) would violate any governmental laws, rules or ordinances (or interpretations thereof); (v) contains or uses hazardous or toxic materials or substances not permitted under Applicable Laws; (vi) would affect the external appearance of the Building; (vii) would materially and adversely affect another tenant’s premises at the Project: or (viii) is prohibited by any mortgage, trust deed or other instrument encumbering the Building or Project. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any written objections, questions or comments of Landlord with regard to the Working Drawings, and Tenant shall cause the Working Drawings to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said Working Drawings to Landlord for approval within ten (10) business days thereafter. Such process shall continue until Landlord has approved the Working Drawings. Landlord’s approval of the Space Plan and/or the Working Drawings shall not be deemed any representation or warranty that the same comply with applicable codes.
Construction Contracts Lessee has entered into contracts with the Contractors or separate contracts with materialmen and laborers providing for the construction of the Improvements. Lessee will cause the Contractors to promptly furnish Lessor with the complete list of all Sub-contractors or entities as and when under contract, which Contractors propose to engage to furnish labor and/or materials in constructing the Improvements (such list containing the names, addresses, and amounts of such sub-contracts as written in excess individually of $5,000, and prior to disbursement of funds to or for the benefit of such Subcontractors, affidavits of authorized signatory and other documents commercially reasonably required by Title to insure that the Leased Premises remain lien free) and will from time to time furnish Lessor or Title with true copies of all Contracts entered into by Lessee and with the terms of all verbal agreements therefor, if any, and as to subcontractors, letters signed by sub-contractors whose contracts are in excess of $5,000 setting forth the present amount of their contract and the amounts remaining to be paid under that contract, if the same information is not stated on a lien waiver reflecting the most currently requested payment to such subcontractor.

Landlord shall, within five (5) days thereafter, submit four (4) sets of proposed plans and specifications, as so revised or corrected, to Tenant for its approval in accordance with this paragraph, which plans will then be considered the final plans (the “Final Plans”). The Final Plans may subsequently be amended by Tenant provided that significant changes will require Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall be given or reasonably refused within five (5) business days after receipt of such amended plans and specifications and, provided further that if such change order will delay the anticipated Commencement Date specified in Section 1 of the Lease the change order shall be considered a Tenant Delay (as hereinafter defined).
