Tenant’s Work Section 5.1 Except as may be expressly provided in this lease, Tenant shall not replace any fixtures in the Premises or make any changes, improvements, alterations or additions (collectively, “Tenant’s Work”), to the Premises, the Real Property, the Building systems, or any part thereof, without Xxxxxxxx’s prior consent. Landlord’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if Tenant’s Work (a) is nonstructural, and (b) does not (i) affect any part of the Real Property outside the Premises (including the Building roof) or the exterior of the Premises, (ii) affect any structural element of the Building, (iii) adversely affect any Building system, or (iv) require an amendment of the certificate of occupancy for the Premises or the Building, ( c) is not visible outside the Premises and (d) is performed only by contractors and subcontractors first approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Xxxxxxxx’s consent shall not be required with respect to such of Tenant’s Work as are cosmetic alterations (such as painting the interior of the Premises, carpeting, and installation of shelving and display cases) inside the Premises (“Cosmetic Alterations”), provided Tenant complies with the other applicable provisions of this lease. Tenant’s Work shall be performed, at Tenant’s expense, with diligence when started so as to promptly complete it in a good and worker-like manner using new materials of first class quality and in compliance with this lease, all Laws and Tenant’s Plans (as defined in Section 5.2) as approved by Landlord. As part of Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall soundproof the Premises and install appropriate ventilation if required so that Tenant’s use of the Premises shall not result in noise and/or odors being transmitted outside the Premises. Tenant’s Work shall be fully paid for by Tenant when payment is due and shall not be financed with any conditional sales or title retention agreements or by the granting of any security interests, liens, encumbrances or financing statements. Tenant’s Work shall be deemed, upon installation, to be improvements and betterments that become the property of Landlord at installation, and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises, at the expiration of the Term (or the sooner termination of this lease in accordance with its provisions) unless Landlord notifies Tenant in accordance with the provisions of this Article that Landlord relinquishes its rights thereto, in which case Tenant shall be obligated to remove such Tenant’s Work.
Section 5.2 Prior to commencing any Tenant’s Work other than purely Cosmetic Alterations, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, deliver to Landlord detailed plans and specifications, for Tenant’s Work, in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, prepared, certified, signed and sealed by an architect or engineer licensed to practice in the State of New York, and suitable for filing with the applicable Authority, if filing is required by applicable Laws (such plans and specifications together with revisions thereto, collectively, “Tenant’s Plans”), and obtain Landlord’s approval of Xxxxxx’s Plans. Xxxxxxxx’s approval of Xxxxxx’s Plans shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed to the extent Xxxxxxxx’s consent to Xxxxxx’s Work shown on Tenant’s Plans is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed pursuant to this Article. Before commencing Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall (a) obtain (and deliver to Landlord copies of) all required permits and authorizations of any Authority for such work, and (b) deliver to Landlord such security as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and (c) deliver to Landlord certificates (in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord) evidencing the following insurance coverages from each contractor and subcontractor: (i) worker’s compensation insurance covering all persons to be employed in the performance of any Tenant’s Work, and
Tenant’s Equipment Tenant shall provide notice to Landlord prior to moving any heavy machinery, heavy equipment, freight, bulky matter or fixtures (collectively, “Equipment”) into or out of the Building and shall pay to Landlord any costs actually incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. If such Equipment requires special handling, Tenant agrees (a) to employ only persons holding all necessary licenses to perform such work, (b) all work performed in connection therewith shall comply with all applicable Requirements and (c) such work shall be done only during hours designated by Landlord.
Tenant Improvements Landlord shall cause the Core and Shell Contractor or another Contractor designated by Landlord and approved by Tenant, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (“TI Contractor”, and together with Core and Shell Contractor, “Contractor”) to commence and thereafter diligently prosecute the construction of the tenant improvements in the Premises pursuant to the Work Letter (the “Tenant Improvements”); provided, however, that before performing the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall prepare in good faith an estimated budget for the construction of the Tenant Improvements and deliver such budget to Tenant for Tenant’s written approval prior the start of construction (the “Budget”). Landlord and Tenant shall work together cooperatively and in good faith to achieve a mutually acceptable Budget. Landlord shall update the Budget for Tenant’s review and approval at reasonable intervals and shall notify Tenant in writing if the Budget is likely to be exceeded. If there is an indication that the Budget is likely to be exceeded, Landlord and Tenant shall work together cooperatively, if required by Tenant, to modify the scope of the Tenant Improvements to bring the same in line with a budget reasonably acceptable to Tenant. The Tenant Improvements shall be performed in a workmanlike manner and shall substantially conform with Applicable Laws and the Approved TI Plans (as defined in the Work Letter). Tenant shall pay all TI Costs, except that Landlord shall pay for TI Costs that do not exceed the TI Allowance. The “TI Allowance” shall mean (a) One Hundred Twenty Five Dollars ($125.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Initial TI Allowance”), together with (b) the Additional Allowance. The “TI Costs” shall mean all Tenant Core and Shell Costs (as defined in the Work Letter) and all costs and expenses of performing the TI Work, including without limitation the hard and soft costs of (i) construction, (ii) the Construction Management Fee (as such term is defined in the Work Letter) and any Project or construction management fees paid by Tenant to an unaffiliated third party (such fees not to exceed three percent (3%) of the TI Allowance), (iii) space planning, design, architect, engineering, data and phone cabling and other related services, (iv) costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment, data and phone cabling and fixtures (including, without limitation, any of the Attached Property (as defined in Section 18.5), (v) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by governmental and quasi-governmental agencies for permits or for inspections of the Tenant Improvements, and (vi) the Warm Shell Costs. In no event shall the TI Allowance be used for: (w) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, (x) costs resulting from a Tenant Delay, (y) costs resulting from any default by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease, or (z) costs that are recoverable or reasonably recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors). In the event the estimated total TI Costs (as set forth in the Budget) exceed the TI Allowance, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord such overage (the “TI Allowance Excess”), within five (5) business days of receiving the Budget (the “TI Deposit”). In the event Landlord determines the estimate of the TI Costs set forth in the Budget underestimates the amount of TI Costs so that the TI Deposit will not be sufficient to cover the TI Allowance Excess, then Landlord shall communicate the same to Tenant and, if required by Tenant, the parties shall discuss revisions to the Budget and Tenant may make a TI Tenant Change Order Request to reduce TI Costs, and unless the TI Costs are reduced to be within the Budget and previously paid TI Deposit, Tenant shall promptly pay the additional amount to Landlord, and such additional amount shall be added to the TI Deposit. If the sum of the TI Allowance plus the TI Deposit is not sufficient to cover the TI Costs, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the difference between (a) the TI Costs and (b) the sum of the TI Allowance and the TI Deposit. However, Landlord shall be solely responsible for any costs related to the Tenant Improvements to the extent the same result from Landlord’s gross negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall work together cooperatively at no cost or risk to Landlord to maximize Tenant’s ability, to the extent reasonably possible, to obtain the benefit of any applicable research and development tax credits with respect to the Tenant Improvements.
Tenant Work Before commencing any repair or Alteration (“Tenant Work”), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, and obtain Landlord’s approval of, (a) names of contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers and materialmen; (b) evidence of contractors’ and subcontractors’ insurance; and (c) any required governmental permits. Tenant shall perform all Tenant Work (i) in a good and workmanlike manner using materials of a quality reasonably approved by Landlord; (ii) in compliance with any approved plans and specifications, all Laws, the National Electric Code, and Landlord’s construction rules and regulations; and (iii) in a manner that does not impair the Base Building. If, as a result of any Tenant Work, Landlord becomes required under Law to perform any inspection, give any notice, or cause such Tenant Work to be performed in any particular manner, Tenant shall comply with such requirement and promptly provide Landlord with reasonable documentation of such compliance. Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications shall not relieve Tenant from any obligation under this Section 7.3. In performing any Tenant Work, Tenant shall not use contractors, services, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, would disturb labor harmony with any workforce or trades engaged in performing other work or services at the Project.
Landlord Work Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, concurrently with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, remove the existing demising wall and construct a Building standard demising wall at the Expansion Premises, which shall include studs, acoustical insulation and dry wall ready for finish on the Tenant side only and any necessary penetrations, fire dampers and sound traps (collectively, the “Demising Wall”), which Demising Wall shall be adjacent to the Expansion Premises as set forth on Exhibit A to this Amendment (collectively, the “Landlord Work”). Tenant may not change or alter the Landlord Work. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete the Landlord Work no later than forty-five (45) days after the Expansion Delivery Date. In addition, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to the extent required in order to allow Tenant to obtain a certificate of occupancy, or its legal equivalent, for the Expansion Premises for general office use assuming a normal and customary office occupancy density, cause the Landlord Work and the Building Common Areas (including the Base Building restrooms on the seventh (7th) floor of the Building), to comply with applicable building codes and other governmental laws, ordinances and regulations related to handicap access, which were enacted and enforced as of the date of this Amendment. Because Landlord shall be constructing the Landlord Work concurrently with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, there will be a certain “overlap” period pursuant to which both Landlord’s representatives, employees, vendors and contractors and Tenant’s representatives, employees, vendors and contractors may be present and performing work in a portion of the Premises. During any such “overlap” period(s) when both parties and/or their respective employees, vendors, contractors or consultants are concurrently performing work in, or accessing, any portion of the Premises, neither party shall unreasonably interfere with or delay the work of the other party and/or its contractors or consultants, and both parties shall mutually coordinate and cooperate with each other, and shall cause their respective employees, vendors, contractors, and consultants to work in harmony with and to mutually coordinate and cooperate with the other’s employees, vendors, contractors and consultants, respectively, to minimize any interference or delay by either party with respect to the other party’s work. In addition, Landlord shall, and shall cause the other Landlord Parties to, use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant’s operations in the Existing Premises. Landlord shall have no obligation to move any furniture or other personal property of Tenant in the performance of Landlord Work. Tenant hereby agrees that the construction of the Landlord Work shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Lease (including this Tenant Work Letter), Landlord shall have no responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from the Landlord Work, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of Tenant’s personal property or improvements resulting from the Landlord Work or Landlord’s actions in connection with the Landlord Work, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by the Landlord Work or Landlord’s actions in connection with the Landlord Work.
Tenant’s Plans (i) Tenant shall diligently pursue the preparation of all drawings, plans and specifications for Tenant Improvements in accordance with this Paragraph 2(b). All such plans, drawings and specifications shall be performed by an architect and/or engineer (as applicable) reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, and shall include the following: (i) a space plan for the Premises; (ii) complete architectural, engineering and other plans for the Tenant Improvements; and (iii) a list of tenant improvement building standards for interior design, including a schedule (e.g. color palate, material board and spec sheets) of all interior color and finishes. Items (ii) and (iii) above are collectively referred to herein as “Working Drawings”. The space plan and Working Drawings shall comply with all applicable regulations, laws, ordinances, codes and rules. Tenant shall submit its space plan to Landlord, for review and approval in Landlord’s sole discretion. Within ten (10) business days after such submission, Landlord shall either approve or disapprove the space plan. Tenant shall make any changes necessary in order to correct any item identified by Landlord as grounds for its disapproval, and shall resubmit the correct space plan to Landlord within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s disapproval. Within ten (10) business days after Landlord received the revised space plan, Landlord shall approve or disapprove it. This procedure shall be repeated until the space plan is finally approved by Landlord and written approval has been delivered to Tenant. If Landlord fails to approve or disapprove any submission within the required time period Landlord shall be deemed to have disapproved such submission. Landlord has approved the space plan for Building 2, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule 2 (the “Building 2 Space Plan”), subject to Landlord’s right to review and approve the Working Drawings, interior color and finishes, materials, specifications, and other items pursuant to Paragraph 2(b)(ii) and (iii) below, and further subject to compliance and conformance with the Minimum Specifications (as defined in Paragraph 2(b)(iii) below).
(ii) Within twenty-one (21) days after Landlord has finally approved Tenant’s space plan, Tenant shall submit its Working Drawings and a pallet of interior colors and finishes to Landlord for Landlord’s review and approval, in Landlord’s sole discretion. Landlord’s approval or disapproval of such Working Drawings and pallet, and Tenant’s response thereto, shall follow the procedure (including deemed disapproval) described in Subsection (i) above with respect to the space plan. All items finally approved by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph 2(b) are referred to herein collectively as “Tenant’s Plans”. Once approved by Landlord, no changes shall be made to Tenant’s Plans without the prior written approval of Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion.
(iii) Landlord has established a partial list of Minimum Building Specifications for Building 2 (the “Minimum Specifications”) which is attached to this Exhibit as Schedule 1, for use in the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements, provided that the Minimum Specifications is not a complete list of products, specifications and finishes to be used in the construction of the Tenant Improvements and accordingly, Tenant shall cause to be described in the Working Drawings all products, specifications and finishes to be used in the construction of the Tenant Improvements which are not otherwise listed on, or which deviate from, the Minimum Specifications, all of which shall be subject to Landlord’s approval in Landlord’s sole discretion. Unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Landlord, the portion of the Tenant Improvements pertaining to the products, specifications and finishes specified in the Minimum Specifications shall comply with the Minimum Specifications.
Landlord Repairs Landlord shall maintain, at its expense, the structural soundness of the roof, foundations, and exterior walls of the Site and all common areas within the Site in good repair, reasonable wear and tear and damages caused by Tenant, its agents and contractors excluded; provided, however, that Landlord’s costs of maintenance and repair of the common areas may be included within Site Operating Costs as provided and subject to the limitations thereon set forth in Section 9 above; and provided, further, that Landlord shall also make all such repairs and restorations which may be required as a result of any patent or latent defects in Landlord’s Work pursuant to Landlord’s warranty set forth in Section 6 of Exhibit “B”. The term “walls” as used in this Section shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors or overhead doors, special store fronts, dock bumpers, dock plates or levelers, or office entries. Tenant shall promptly give Landlord written notice of any repair required by Landlord pursuant to this Section, after which Landlord shall have a reasonable opportunity to repair; provided, however, that Landlord shall in any event have commenced and diligently pursue all such repairs to completion within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s written notice therefor; provided, further, that if such repairs are not capable of being completed within said 30-day period, then Landlord shall have such additional period of time as may be reasonably necessary to complete such repairs so long as Landlord commences such repairs within said thirty (30) day period and diligently pursues such repairs to completion. If the repairs required to be made by Landlord materially and adversely affect Tenant’s use of the Premises for its Permitted Use and Tenant’s notice clearly and conspicuously labels the repair a “Critical Repair” and summarizes the requirements of this Section, Landlord shall commence and diligently pursue such repairs to completion within five (5) business days after receipt of the foregoing written notice from Tenant and, if Landlord fails to commence and diligently pursue such repairs within said five (5) business day period, Tenant shall have the right to elect to perform such repairs on behalf of Landlord, the actual, reasonable costs of which shall be reimbursed by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of a written invoice or statement therefor from Tenant and, if such costs and expenses are not so reimbursed to Tenant within said 30-day period, Tenant shall have the right to offset the same, together with interest at a per-annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus ten percent (10%), from the next and subsequent installments of Base Rent payable under this Lease until the foregoing amount is fully offset.
Tenant’s Repairs Subject to Section 13 hereof, Tenant, at its expense, shall repair, replace and maintain in good condition all portions of the Premises, including, without limitation, entries, doors, ceilings, interior windows, interior walls, and the interior side of demising walls. Such repair and replacement may include capital expenditures and repairs whose benefit may extend beyond the Term. Should Tenant fail to make any such repair or replacement or fail to maintain the Premises, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of such failure. If Tenant fails to commence cure of such failure within 10 days of Landlord’s notice, and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion, Landlord may perform such work and shall be reimbursed by Tenant within 10 days after demand therefor; provided, however, that if such failure by Tenant creates or could create an emergency, Landlord may immediately commence cure of such failure and shall thereafter be entitled to recover the costs of such cure from Tenant. Subject to Sections 17 and 18, Tenant shall bear the full uninsured cost of any repair or replacement to any part of the Project that results from damage caused by Tenant or any Tenant Party and any repair that benefits only the Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, as of the Rent Commencement Date, the maintenance and repair obligations for the Premises shall be allocated between Landlord and Tenant as set forth on Exhibit H attached hereto. The maintenance obligations allocated to Tenant pursuant to Exhibit H (the “Tenant Maintenance Obligations”) shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. The Tenant Maintenance Obligations shall include the procurement and maintenance of contracts, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, with copies to Landlord upon Landlord’s written request, for and with contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord specializing and experienced in the respective Tenant Maintenance Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the scope of work of any such contracts entered into by Tenant pursuant to this paragraph shall, at a minimum, comply with manufacturer’s recommended maintenance procedures for the optimal performance of the applicable equipment. Landlord shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, have no obligation to perform any Tenant Maintenance Obligations. The Tenant Maintenance Obligations shall not include the right or obligation on the part of Tenant to make any structural and/or capital repairs or improvements to the Project, and Landlord shall continue, as part of Operating Expenses, to be responsible, as provided in Section 13, for capital repairs and replacements required to be made to the Project. If Tenant fails to maintain any portion of the Premises for which Tenant is responsible as part of the Tenant Maintenance Obligations in a manner reasonably acceptable to Landlord within the requirements of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to provide Tenant with written notice thereof and to assume the Tenant Maintenance Obligations if Tenant does not cure Tenant’s failure within 10 days after receipt of such notice.
Landlord Improvements (a) On the Commencement Date, Landlord will deliver the Leased Premises to Tenant in a broom clean condition, and, along with the lighting, electrical (excluding the UPS system and the diesel generator), mechanical and plumbing fixtures, plumbing systems, dock doors and HVAC servicing the Leased Premises, hot water, doors and plate-glass, will be delivered to Tenant in good condition and repair, as defined in Section 5.05 above.
(b) After receipt of the Letter of Credit and any required building permit, Landlord will commence and diligently pursue to completion, the construction of the improvements to the Leased Premises (the “Landlord Improvements”), in accordance with plans and specifications as shown in Exhibit B, subject to approval by local regulatory authorities (the “Plans”), which Plans are made a part of this Lease by reference. Any changes or modifications to the Plans must be made and accepted by written change order or agreement signed by Landlord and Tenant and will constitute an amendment to this Lease. Any Landlord Improvements made by Landlord are the property of Landlord and must be surrendered to Landlord upon the termination of this Lease without credit to Tenant. Upon completion of any Landlord Improvements and issuance of a final certificate of occupancy (to be applied for by Landlord’s general contractor) and certification from Landlord’s general contractor certifying to Tenant that all Landlord Improvements have been completed in accordance with the Plans (the “General Contractor’s Certificate”), thereafter Landlord shall provide and Tenant shall acknowledge receipt and acceptance of “as-built plans” of all work done in accordance with this Section 6.01.
(c) Landlord shall furnish an allowance of up to $172,800.00 (One hundred seventy-two thousand, eight hundred dollars) (“Landlord Improvement Allowance”) to be credited against the cost of the construction of the Landlord Improvements. If the actual cost of construction of the Landlord Improvements is less than the Landlord Improvement Allowance (“Allowance Overage”), Tenant shall have no right or claim to such difference; provided however, that if there is an Allowance Overage, Landlord, upon submission of supporting documentation by Tenant, will reimburse Tenant for any third party costs of low voltage wiring and laboratory benches for the Leased Premises, but such reimbursement shall not exceed the lesser of the Allowance Overage or 69,120.00 (Sixty-nine thousand, one hundred twenty & xx/100 dollars). If the actual cost of construction of the Landlord Improvements exceeds the Landlord Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall pay such excess cost to Landlord within ten (10) business days after receipt of supporting documentation and the General Contractor’s Certificate,.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 6.01 (c) above, within 30 days after the issuance of the General Contractor’s Certificate, Landlord will determine the sum of (i) the actual cost of the Landlord Improvements, plus (ii) if any, the actual costs submitted by Tenant towards the Contingent Allowance, and the product of the calculation shall be rounded to the next $1,000.00 (One Thousand Dollars). If the resultant amount is less than the Landlord Improvement Allowance, Landlord shall reduce the monthly Base Rent by $20.25 (“Base Rent Reduction Factor”) for each whole $1,000.00 (One Thousand Dollars) of such amount effective January 1, 2012. If it is determined that the monthly Base Rent is to be reduced and if Tenant has already paid Base Rent in a pre-reduction amount, Landlord shall give Tenant credit for any such excess payment, and reduction in monthly Base Rent shall be memorialized in an amendment to this Lease. In the event that the monthly Base Rent is reduced in accordance with this Section 6.01(d), there shall be no reduction in the Security Deposit Amount or in the requirements set forth for the Letter of Credit. The following example illustrates the intentions of the parties hereto as to computation of any reduction of the monthly Base Rent: Assumptions:
1. Actual cost of the Landlord Improvements: $100,000.00
2. Actual cost of qualifying costs for Contingent Allowance: $50,500.00 Total cost of Landlord Improvements and Contingent Allowance Costs: ($100,000.00 + $50,500.00) = $150,500.00 Determination of reduction in monthly Base Rent: Total Landlord Improvement Allowance $ 172,800.00 Less total cost of Landlord Improvements and contingent costs 150,500.00 $ 22300.00 Rounded to next $1,000.00 (One Thousand Dollars) $ 23,000.00 Divided by $1,000.00 (One Thousand Dollars) 1,000.00 Base Rent Reduction Factor 20.25 Reduction in monthly Base Rent $ 465.75
(e) In addition to the Landlord Improvements, Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, shall have the following additional work performed on the Leased Premises prior to delivery of possession to Tenant, such work to be coordinated with the construction of the Landlord Improvements:
(i) Replace all stained, damaged or missing ceiling tiles,
(ii) Paint all walls in the Leased Premises, the color to be designated by Tenant,
(iii) Replace all vinyl floor tiles in the open laboratory area as shown in Exhibit C,
(iv) Shampoo all carpets in the office areas and hallways and
(v) Any existing water supply or drainage pipes in the open lab area that are not initially utilized by Tenant shall be capped and made reasonably flush with the floor, but such capping shall allow for those pipes to be tapped by Tenant for future use.
(vi) Re-caulk all perimeter flashing; install new pads under all gas line blocking; repair any loose or open curb or wall flashing; repack all pitch pans; repair any open joints on gravel guard; repair any loose scupper flashing; clean, prime and install EPDM peel and stick tape to all roof side tilt wall joints; clean all debris from around drains and entire roof; install Xxxxxx 97 asbestos free aluminum coating to entire roof surface
(vii) Repair any existing alligator or pothole areas.
Tenant’s Alterations (a) Except as hereafter provided, Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements (“Tenant Alterations”) to the Leased Space without the consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. At the time of Landlord’s consent, Landlord shall designate whether Tenant shall be required to remove the proposed Tenant Alteration upon termination of this Lease, and the absence of such designation in Landlord’s written consent shall be deemed Landlord’s agreement that Tenant shall not be obligated to remove Tenant Alterations upon the termination of this Lease. Landlord also may impose such reasonable conditions as part of its consent as Landlord deems appropriate, taking into consideration the nature of the proposed Tenant Alteration, including, without limitation, requiring Tenant to furnish Landlord with security for the payment of all costs to be incurred in connection with such work, insurance, and copies of the plans, specifications and permits necessary for such work. Nothing herein, however, shall be construed to obligate Tenant to construct any Tenant Alteration for which Landlord has given its consent.
(b) Landlord’s consent shall not be required for Tenant Alterations which (i) do not adversely impact the structural integrity of the Building or the systems serving the Building or their operation, (ii) are not visible from the Building exterior and (iii) qualify under the following:
(A) The Tenant Alteration is to be made to portions of the Leased Premises other than the laboratory areas and the cost thereof is $10,000 or less with respect to any Tenant Alteration project (or $20,000 or less in the aggregate with respect to Tenant Alteration projects undertaken over any twelve (12) consecutive month period); or
(B) The Tenant Alteration is to be made to the laboratory areas of the Leased Premises and the cost thereof is $50,000 or less with respect to any Tenant Alteration project (or $100,000 or less in the aggregate with respect to Tenant Alteration projects undertaken over any twelve (12) consecutive month period). Tenant Alterations described in this subsection (b) for which Landlord’s consent is not required hereinafter are called “Permitted Tenant Alterations.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, painting or carpeting of the interior of the Leased Space and like cosmetic improvements shall not be deemed Tenant Alterations regardless of the cost thereof. Tenant shall not be obligated to remove Permitted Tenant Alterations upon the termination of this Lease unless an Event of Default has occurred which is then continuing and Landlord so requires such removal.
(c) All Tenant Alterations shall be done at Tenant’s expense by contractors approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and shall be deemed given unless Landlord notifies Tenant of its objections within ten (10) business days after delivery of Tenant’s request for approval. With respect to Tenant Alterations other than the Permitted Tenant Alterations, no work shall be performed until the plans therefore have been approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and shall be deemed approved unless Landlord notifies Tenant of objections to the proposed plans within ten (10) business days after delivery to Landlord of a complete set of the plans therefor. In connection with the review of plans submitted by Tenant, Landlord shall be reimbursed by Tenant for Landlord’s cost in reviewing such plans at the rate of $125.00 per hour; subject to reasonable increase to reflect the then current hourly charge imposed for such review by Landlord for its tenants in the Center generally, and prior to undertaking any such review, Landlord shall provide a statement of the maximum review hours to be dedicated to such review. With respect to Permitted Tenant Alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of Tenant’s application for a building permit therefor, if applicable (together with all attachments thereto), and no review fee shall be charged to Tenant by Landlord in connection therewith nor shall Landlord’s approval of such application be required. Tenant shall provide copies of as-built plans and specifications for all Tenant Alterations to Landlord within a reasonable time of completion of the Tenant Alteration. All Tenant Alterations shall be done in a first class, workmanlike manner and shall comply with all insurance requirements then made available to Tenant and all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of governmental authorities having jurisdiction thereover, and, where applicable, with all reasonable requirements of Landlord imposed as a condition of such consent.
(d) If, as a condition of Landlord’s consent, removal of a Tenant Alteration is required at termination of this Lease, Tenant shall promptly remove such Tenant Alterations and repair any damage occasioned by such removal. In default thereof, Landlord may effect said removal and repairs at Tenants expense. With respect to any Tenant Alterations which Tenant is not obligated to remove hereunder (including without limitation Permitted Tenant Alterations), such Tenant Alterations, if not removed by Tenant upon the termination of this Lease, shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant, and deemed a part of Landlord’s property, notwithstanding any provision of Section 16 to the contrary.
