WORK LETTER This Lease is supplemented by that certain Work Letter of even date executed by Lessor and Lessee, attached hereto as Exhibit C, and incorporated herein by this reference.
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.
Landlord’s Work Prior to the execution of the Lease, Landlord and Tenant have approved the detailed description of base, shell and core work for the Phase I Premises and Phase II Premises attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (the “Base, Shell and Core Description”). Based upon and in conformity with the Base Shell and Core Description, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to prepare and deliver to Tenant, for Tenant’s approval, detailed specifications and engineered working drawings in CAD format, which shall include, without limitation, ADA path of travel, restroom locations and counts, exit lighting plans for the Phase I Work (the “Base Building Working Drawings”) by no later than June 1, 2019. Within seven (7) days after Tenant’s and Landlord’s receipt of the Base Building Working Drawings, Tenant and Landlord shall approve or disapprove the same, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Tenant may only disapprove the Base Building Working Drawings to the extent such Base Building Working Drawings are inconsistent with the Base, Shell and Core Description and only if Tenant delivers notice thereof to Landlord within such seven (7) day period. If any specific changes proposed by Tenant to rectify any inconsistencies with the Base, Shell and Core Description are timely and properly proposed by Tenant, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers to revise the Base Building Working Drawings to incorporate such revisions and submit the same for Tenant’s approval in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and the parties shall follow the foregoing procedures for approving the Base Building Working Drawings until the same are finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Base Building Working Drawings, the same shall be referred to as the “Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Phase I Work”. Based upon and in conformity with the Base, Shell and Core Description, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to prepare and deliver to Tenant, for Tenant’s approval, detailed specifications and engineered working drawings in CAD format, which shall include, without limitation, ADA path of travel, restroom locations and counts, exit lighting plans for the Phase II Work (the “Phase II Base Building Working Drawings”) by no later than October 1, 2019. Within seven (7) days after Tenant’s and Landlord’s receipt of the Phase II Base Building Working Drawings, Tenant and Landlord shall approve or disapprove the same, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Tenant may only disapprove the Phase II Base Building Working Drawings to the extent such Phase II Base Building Working Drawings are inconsistent with the Base, Shell and Core Description and only if Tenant delivers notice thereof to Landlord within such seven (7) day period. If any specific changes proposed by Tenant to rectify any inconsistencies with the Base, Shell and Core Description are timely and properly proposed by Tenant, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers to revise the Phase II Base Building Working Drawings to incorporate such revisions and submit the same for Tenant’s approval in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and the parties shall follow the foregoing procedures for approving the Phase II Base Building Working Drawings until the same are finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Phase II Base Building Working Drawings, the same shall be referred to as the “Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Phase II Work”. The improvements shown on the Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Phase I Work and the Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Phase II Work are hereby collectively referred to as “Landlord’s Work”. The Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Phase I Work and the Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Phase II Work are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Work”.
Construction of Tenant Improvements Promptly following approval of the Final TI Working Drawings, Landlord shall apply for and use reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary permits and approvals to allow construction of Landlord’s TI Work. Upon receipt of such permits and approvals, Landlord shall, at Tenant’s expense (subject to the application of the Tenant Improvement Allowance provided in this Workletter, and subject to any other applicable provisions of the Lease or of this Workletter expressly making any specific item of expense or cost the responsibility of Landlord), diligently construct and complete Landlord’s TI Work substantially in accordance with the Approved TI Plans, subject to Unavoidable Delays and Tenant Delays (if any). Such construction shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and shall conform to all applicable governmental codes, laws and regulations in force at the time such work is completed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for compliance of Landlord’s TI Work with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and all similar or related requirements pertaining to access by persons with disabilities, but nothing in this sentence shall be construed to make Landlord responsible for bearing the cost of any such compliance, to the extent the compliance work is reasonably attributable to or related to the particular nature or design of the Tenant Improvements or is for any other reason expressly made Tenant’s cost or responsibility under any applicable provision of the Lease or of this Workletter. Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decide whether and to what extent to use union labor on or in connection with Landlord’s Work, and shall use the TI General Contractor to construct all of Landlord’s TI Work. Landlord and Tenant shall each have a right to approve all subcontractors engaged in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements and to review and approve all competitive bids for any elements of the Tenant Improvements, such approval in each instance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by either party.
Construction of the Tenant Improvements (a) Tenant shall construct and install the Tenant Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, in compliance with all Laws and in accordance with this Exhibit B. Tenant’s proposed architect/engineer, general contractor, and fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical subcontractors are subject to Landlord’s prior approval. Promptly following the selection and approval of the architect/engineer, Tenant shall forward to said architect/engineer (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s building standards heretofore delivered to Tenant, and Tenant shall cause said architect/engineer to comply with said building standards. Promptly following the selection and approval of the general contractor, Tenant shall forward to said general contractor (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical specifications and Landlord’s rules of conduct, all of which have been delivered to Tenant prior to the date of this Lease, and Tenant shall cause said general contractor to comply with said specifications and rules of conduct. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall coordinate a meeting among Landlord (who will reasonably make its representative available for such meeting), Tenant and Tenant’s general contractor to discuss the Building systems and other matters related to the construction of the Tenant Improvements.
(b) Promptly following the date hereof, Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord a set of permittable construction drawings (the “CDs”), based on the preliminary plans attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 and made a part hereof (the “Preliminary Plans”), covering all work to be performed by Tenant in constructing the Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall have no right to make any Tenant Improvements that would materially alter the exterior appearance of the Building or the Building systems without Landlord’s prior approval. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the CDs in which to review the CDs and in which to give Tenant written notice of its approval of the CDs or its requested changes to the CDs in reasonably sufficient detail so as to allow Tenant to make the requested changes (provided that Landlord shall not be permitted to request a change that is inconsistent with the Preliminary Plans). If Landlord requests any changes to the CDs, Tenant shall make such changes and shall, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of Landlord’s requested changes (if any), submit the revised portion of the CDs to Landlord. Landlord shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the revised CDs in which to review said revised CDs and in which to give to Tenant written notice of its approval of the revised CDs or its requested changes thereto. This process shall continue until such time, if at all, that Landlord approves the CDs in accordance with this Section 2. Tenant shall at all times in its preparation of the CDs, and of any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith. Landlord shall at all times in its review of the CDs, and any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith.
Tenant Improvement Plans Any work proposed by Tenant (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 C; provided that it will be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its approval or consent (as and when applicable under this Exhibit C) if Landlord’s Mortgagee has not consented to the matter that is the subject of such approval or consent. All architectural, engineering and other design fees shall be paid by Tenant. 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 Seattle and the State of Washington; Tenant’s architect shall be approved by Landlord (“Tenant’s Architect”), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord shall also be entitled to receive a copy of the agreement between Tenant and Tenant’s Architect (the “Architect Agreement”). Tenant shall cause Tenant’s Architect 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) in a time period to allow Tenant to timely complete its Tenant Improvements under this Lease. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any written objections, questions or comments of Landlord with regard to the Space Plan within ten (10) business days of receipt; Landlord’s consent thereto shall be deemed given if not denied in writing within said ten (10) business day period. If Landlord denies its approval, it shall specify the reasons for doing so in detail. Tenant shall cause the Space Plan to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said Space Plan to Landlord for approval. 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 in a time period to allow Tenant to timely complete its Tenant Improvements under this Lease. The Space Plan and Working Drawings shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which Landlord agrees shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Landlord shall not be deemed to have acted unreasonably if it withholds its approval thereof because, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, the work, as described in any such item: (i) is likely to adversely affect Building Systems, the structure of the Building or the safety of the Building and/or their occupants; (ii) might impair Landlord’s ability to furnish services to Tenant or other tenants in the Building; (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; (vi) would negatively affect the appearance of the Building; (vii) is reasonably likely to adversely affect another tenant’s premises; or (viii) is prohibited by any ground lease affecting the Building or any mortgage, trust deed or other instrument encumbering the Building. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant any written objections, questions or comments of Landlord with regard to the Working Drawings, within ten (10) business days of Landlord’s receipt of the Working Drawings; Landlord’s consent thereto shall be deemed given if not denied in writing within said ten (10) business day period. If Landlord denies its approval, it shall specify the reasons for doing so in detail. Tenant shall cause the Working Drawings to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said Working Drawings to Landlord for approval. Landlord may, when approving the Tenant Improvement Plans, elect to require Tenant to remove any Non-Standard Improvements which are made to the Premises. If Landlord so elects, Tenant shall, at its own cost, restore the Premises to the condition designated by Landlord in its election, before the last day of the Term. Such process shall continue until both parties have 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.
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.
Lessee Improvements Lessee shall prepare final plans and ------------------- specifications for construction of the Lessee Improvements desired by Lessee and shall deliver to Lessor by July 1, 1999, two (2) copies of such plans and specifications and the names of two proposed contractors to construct the Lessee Improvements for Lessor approval. Lessor will promptly either approve of the plans and specifications and the contractors, or communicate its objections, and if Lessor has objections, the Lessor will work diligently with Lessee to resolve any objections such that approval of the plans and specifications and names of contractors is given within fifteen (15) days of receipt. Lessor shall be deemed to have approved the plans and specifications and the contractors unless Lessor shall have provided written notice to Lessee of Lessor's objections thereto within fourteen (14) days following the delivery thereof by Lessee to Lessor. The Lessor approved final plans and specifications for the Lessee Improvements are herein called the "Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications". All reasonable costs involved in approving, drafting and preparing the Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications shall be charged against the Improvement Allowance described below. Lessor shall apply for building permits to construct the Lessee Improvements and will submit bid requests to the two contractors selected by Lessee and the contractor for the Shell Building Improvements no later than two (2) days following approval of the Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications. Contractors will be required to submit their bids no later than thirty (30) days following receipt of the bid request. Lessee shall have fifteen (15) days from receipt of all bids to select the contractor for the Lessee Improvements. Except for immaterial field changes, modifications to the Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications must be made and accepted only by written change order or agreement signed by Lessor and Lessee and will constitute an amendment to this Lease. Lessee shall be responsible for payment in advance of all work and construction resulting from changes in the Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications requested by Lessee if the additional cost attributable to the changes exceed the Improvement Allowance by more than $3.00 as described in subparagraph (c) below. The Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications (when approved by Lessor and Lessee) are incorporated in this Lease by reference. For the purpose of this Section, an "immaterial field change" shall mean such field changes which are required by any governmental authority or changes which (i) do not affect the size, configuration, structural integrity, quality, character, architectural appearance and standard of workmanship contemplated in the Lessee Improvements Final Plans and Specifications, (ii) will not result in any default in any obligation to any person or violation of any governmental requirements, and (iii) the cost of or reduction resulting from any single field change or extra does not exceed $5,000.00.
Tenant Improvement Allowance Commencing as of January 1, 2011, Tenant shall be entitled to use the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”, as defined in Section 2 of this Amendment, for the costs relating to the design and construction of Tenant’s improvements or which are otherwise “Tenant Improvement Allowance items,” as that term is defined in Section 2.2.1, below (collectively, the “Tenant Improvements”). In no event shall Landlord be obligated to make disbursements pursuant to this Tenant Work Letter or otherwise in connection with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements or any Tenant Improvement Allowance Items, as defined below, in a total amount which exceeds the sum of the Tenant Improvement Allowance. All Tenant Improvements for which the Tenant Improvement Allowance has been made available shall be deemed Landlord’s property under the terms of the Lease; provided, however, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant given concurrently with Landlord’s approval of the “Final Working Drawings”, as that term is defined in Section 3.3, below, require Tenant, prior to the end of the Lease Term or promptly following any earlier termination of this Lease, at Tenant’s expense, to remove any Tenant Improvements and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to a Building standard general office condition; provided, however, that Landlord shall not require Tenant to remove upon termination or expiration of this Lease, or condition its approval upon Tenant’s agreement to remove upon termination or expiration of this Lease, any Tenant Improvements constructed pursuant to this Tenant Work Letter (including, without limitation, Larc improvements) which constitute standard, non-extraordinary improvements for ordinary office, laboratory and/or Larc uses in biotech facilities. Any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance that is not disbursed or allocated for disbursement by December 31, 2013, shall revert to Landlord and Tenant shall have no further rights with respect thereto.
Time of the Essence in This Tenant Work Letter Unless otherwise indicated, all references herein to a “number of days” shall mean and refer to calendar days. If any item requiring approval is timely disapproved by Landlord, the procedure for preparation of the document and approval thereof shall be repeated until the document is approved by Landlord.
