5
(e) Effective upon the Term Commencement Date for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises, Section 8.2 of the Existing Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“8.2 Subject to Section 8.4, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of each calendar month of the Term, as Additional Rent, (a) the Property Management Fee (as defined below) and (b) Landlord’s reasonable good faith estimate of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses (except Real Estate Taxes, which shall be paid as set forth below), as applicable, for such month. Subject to Section 8.4, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, Real Estate Taxes in accordance with the following process: (m) Tenant shall, no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the date that Real Estate Taxes are due to the applicable taxing authority, request in writing from Landlord Landlord’s good faith estimate (the “Tax Estimate”) of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes (subject (except in the case of Real Estate Taxes payable pursuant to a PILOT Agreement pursuant to Section 53 of this Lease, in which case Tenant shall be responsible for all payments in lieu of Real Estate Taxes assessed to it pursuant to such PILOT Agreement, without regard to the limitations set forth in this Section or Section 8.1(a) of this Lease) to the Real Estate Tax Cap), (n) Landlord shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such request, provide Tenant with the Tax Estimate, (o) Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Tax Estimate, deliver to Landlord a check payable to the appropriate taxing authority in the amount of the Tax Estimate and (p) Landlord shall, no later than the date on which the Real Estate Taxes are due, pay all appropriate Real Estate Taxes to the applicable taxing authority, including by delivering Tenant’s check to the applicable taxing authority. If Tenant does not timely perform its obligations pursuant to this Section, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) pay to the taxing authority any portion of the Tax Estimate not received from Tenant (but in no event shall Landlord make such payment prior to the date that is seven (7) days before such Real Estate Taxes are due; provided that, prior to such date, Tenant may cure any failure to timely deliver payment of the Tax Estimate to Landlord by delivering such payment to Landlord), in which case Tenant shall, in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, be liable to Landlord for and immediately pay to Landlord (as Additional Rent) the Tax Estimate, plus any additional taxes, fees or interest imposed by the taxing authority on the portion of Real Estate Taxes that equals the Tax Estimate, which taxes, fees or interest are due to the late payment of Tenant’s Tax Estimate, and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant
6
in the event Tenant is unable to receive any credit or other subsidy in connection with such Real Estate Taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, (y) notwithstanding that Real Estate Taxes are paid in a manner different from all other Operating Expenses, the provisions of this Lease relating to Operating Expenses, including, without limitation, Sections 8.2(ii) and 8.3, shall apply to Real Estate Taxes as if Real Estate Taxes had been paid through Landlord, unless explicitly stated otherwise herein and (z) Tenant’s payment of Real Estate Taxes in accordance with this Section shall be included in any calculation in determining whether Tenant has satisfied its obligations under the Lease to pay its Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses relating to Real Estate Taxes.
(i) The “Property Management Fee” shall equal 1.80% of the Basic Annual Rent (as the same may be increased pursuant to Section 6.1).
(ii) On or before the date that is ninety (90) days after the conclusion of each calendar year (or such longer period as may be reasonably required by Landlord), Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Operating Expenses and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year. Any additional sum due from Tenant to Landlord shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlord’s statement of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses. If Tenant does not receive a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Operating Expenses and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses for a given calendar year within two (2) years after the end of such calendar year, Landlord shall be deemed to have waived payment of such Operating Expenses for such calendar year, provided, however, such period does not apply to supplemental tax bills, which Landlord shall not be deemed to waive payment of, unless after such two (2) year period Landlord fails to submit such supplemental tax xxxx to Tenant within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt thereof. If the amounts paid by Tenant pursuant to this Section 8.2 exceed Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year, then Landlord shall credit the difference against the Rent next due and owing from Tenant; provided that, if the Lease term has expired, Landlord shall accompany said statement with payment for the amount of such difference.
7
Any amount due under this Section 8.2 with respect to (A) the Property Management Fee or Operating Expenses (other than Real Estate Taxes) for any period that is less than a full month shall be pro-rated (based on a thirty (30)-day month) for such fractional month and (B) Real Estate Taxes for any period that is less than a full tax period shall be pro-rated for such fractional tax period.”
(f) Notwithstanding Section 8.1(a)(ii)(B) of the Lease (as set forth in Section 3.4(c) of this First Amendment), for the calendar year 2015 only, and only for purposes of calculating the Real Estate Tax Cap, the Real Estate Tax Cap shall be calculated in part as if the Initial 440 Expansion Premises contained twelve thousand seven hundred two and one-half (12,702.5) square feet of Rentable Area. Tenant shall remain responsible for all other Real Estate Taxes as set forth in Section 8.1(a) of the Lease (as modified by Section 3.4(c) of this First Amendment).
3.5. Cam Pools and Service Allocation Matrix. Effective upon the Term Commencement Date for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises, Exhibit M of the Existing Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Exhibit M attached hereto.
4. Tenant Improvements.
4.1. New Bridge Improvements.
(a) Tenant shall cause the New Bridge Improvements to be constructed pursuant to the New Bridge Work Letter at Tenant’s sole cost and expense; provided that, subject to the terms and conditions of this First Amendment, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for certain costs of the New Bridge Improvements in an amount not to exceed (i) One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) (the “Base New Bridge Allowance”) plus (ii) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Additional New Bridge Allowance”). The Base New Bridge Allowance, together with the Additional New Bridge Allowance shall be referred to herein as the “New Bridge Allowance.” The New Bridge Allowance may be applied to the costs of (m) construction, (n) commissioning of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems by a licensed commissioning agent hired by Tenant, (o) space planning, architect, engineering and other related services performed by third parties unaffiliated with Tenant, (p) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by Governmental Authorities for permits or for inspections of the New Bridge Improvements, (q) costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment and fixtures, (r) Tenant’s third-party project manager (provided such costs in (r) shall not exceed Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000)) and (s) insurance in connection with the construction of the New Bridge Improvements. In no event shall the New Bridge Allowance be used for (w) the cost of construction or other work, in either case that is not authorized by the Approved Plans (as defined in the New Bridge Work Letter) or otherwise approved in writing by Landlord, (x) payments to Tenant or any affiliates of Tenant, (y) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment or (z) costs that are recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors). Landlord shall (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) reasonably cooperate with Tenant in good faith to permit Tenant to perform the New
8
Bridge Improvements from and after the First Amendment Date, including providing Tenant with access to portions of the Buildings outside of the Premises as reasonably necessary for the completion of the New Bridge Improvements.
(b) Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse or expend any portion of the (i) New Bridge Allowance until the New Bridge Improvements are Substantially Complete (as defined below in this Section) or (ii) Additional New Bridge Allowance until Landlord shall have received from Tenant a letter in the form attached as Exhibit G hereto executed by an authorized officer of Tenant. In no event shall any unused New Bridge Allowance entitle Tenant to a credit against Rent payable under the Lease. With respect to the New Bridge Improvements, the term “Substantial Completion” and “Substantially Complete” means that Tenant has (A) completed all of the New Bridge Improvements identified in the Approved Plans (as defined in the New Bridge Work Letter) in substantial accordance with such Approved Plans, as evidenced by a Certificate of Substantial Completion in the form of the American Institute of Architects document G704, executed by the project architect and the general contractor, subject in each case only to Tenant’s failure to complete (i) minor and insubstantial details of construction (the “New Bridge Punchlist Items”) and (ii) items that cannot or should not be completed during the time of year that Tenant performs the appropriate portion of the New Bridge Improvements (for example, the commissioning and testing of air conditioning and cooling systems during the winter months, the commissioning and testing of heating systems during the summer months, or the installation of landscaping during the winter months) the “New Bridge Seasonal Items”); (B) received a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy for the New Bridge Premises from the applicable Governmental Authority(ies); (C) furnished to Landlord a commissioning report (except with respect to New Bridge Seasonal Items) prepared by a licensed commissioning agent hired by Tenant and approved by Landlord for all new or affected mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. For purposes of clarity, any disbursement of the New Bridge Allowance is subject to the requirements of the New Bridge Work Letter. Disagreements regarding Substantial Completion relating to the New Bridge Improvements shall be resolved by the Neutral Architect in accordance with Section 4.2(h) of the Lease.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord shall retain ten percent (10%) of the New Bridge Allowance (the “New Bridge Retainage”) until such time as the New Bridge Improvements are Finally Complete (as defined in the New Bridge Work Letter). Upon Final Completion (as defined in the New Bridge Work Letter) of the New Bridge Improvements in accordance with the provisions of the New Bridge Work Letter, Landlord shall release the New Bridge Retainage to Tenant in accordance with Section 6.3 of the New Bridge Work Letter.
(d) Basic Annual Rent for the New Bridge Premises shall be increased by an amount equal to the product of (i) seven and one-half percent (7.5%) and (ii) the amount of the Additional New Bridge Allowance requested by Tenant and actually disbursed by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that the figure in clause (i) above shall be increased by 0.014% per day for each day of delay beyond the initial Additional New Bridge Allowance Deadline (i.e., January 31, 2016) as a result of Force Majeure or Unknown Condition Delay (as defined below). The amount by which Basic Annual Rent for the New Bridge Premises shall be increased (if at all) shall be determined as of the date that Landlord disburses the portion of the Additional New
9
Bridge Allowance applicable to Substantial Completion (as defined in Section 4.1(b)) of the New Bridge Improvements (provided that, any such increase in Basic Annual Rent shall be effective as of the New Bridge Commencement Date) and, if such determination does not reflect use by Tenant of all of the Additional New Bridge Allowance, shall be determined again as of the Additional New Bridge Allowance Deadline (as defined below), with Tenant paying (on the next succeeding day that Basic Annual Rent is due under the Lease (the “Additional New Bridge Allowance True-Up Date”)) any underpayment of the further adjusted Basic Annual Rent for the New Bridge Premises for the period beginning on the New Bridge Commencement Date and ending on the Additional New Bridge Allowance True-Up Date. If Basic Annual Rent for the New Bridge Premises has been increased pursuant to this Section, then Basic Annual Rent for the New Bridge Premises shall be subject to an annual upward adjustment of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the then-current Basic Annual Rent for the New Bridge Premises. The first such adjustment shall become effective commencing on that certain annual anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date first occurring after the New Bridge Commencement Date, and subsequent adjustments shall become effective on every successive annual anniversary for so long as this Lease continues in effect.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this First Amendment, if the (i) New Bridge Improvements are not Substantially Completed (as defined in Section 4.1(b)) by January 31, 2016 (as such date may be extended on a day-for-day basis as the result of any Force Majeure delay and any Unknown Condition Delay (in each case, subject to the Extension Cap, as defined below) and any Landlord Delay, the “Additional New Bridge Allowance Deadline”), Landlord’s obligation to fund the Additional New Bridge Allowance shall automatically expire, (ii) New Bridge Improvements are not Substantially Completed (as defined in Section 4.1(b)) by July 31, 2016 (as such date may be extended on a day-for-day basis as the result of any Force Majeure delay and any Unknown Condition Delay (in each case, subject to the Extension Cap, as defined below) and any Landlord Delay, the “New Bridge Deadline”), Landlord’s obligation to fund the Base New Bridge Allowance shall automatically expire and (iii) New Bridge Improvements are not Substantially Completed (as defined in Section 4.1(b)) by the New Bridge Deadline, then Landlord shall have the option (but not the obligation) to (A) require Tenant (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) to remove any New Bridge Improvements and restore the 420 Building and the 440 Building to their respective conditions that existed prior to commencement of the New Bridge Improvements, (B) remove any New Bridge Improvements and restore the 420 Building and the 440 Building to their respective conditions that existed prior to commencement of the New Bridge Improvements or (C) take over construction of the New Bridge or any portion thereof. In the event Landlord chooses the option described in clause (B) or (C) above, Tenant shall pay Landlord (as Additional Rent) within ten (10) days after demand therefor, the sum of (1) any and all costs and expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Landlord to perform such work plus (2) the product of (aa) the amount described in Subsection 4.1(e)(1) and (bb) ten percent (10%). Tenant acknowledges and agrees that such work may be noisy and disruptive and may prevent Tenant from accessing and/or using some or all of the Premises within the 420 Building and the 440 Building; provided, however, that Landlord shall diligently endeavor to perform such work in such a manner so as to cause as little noise, disruption or inaccessibility as is reasonably possible. In furtherance of the foregoing, in no event shall performance of any such work (X) cause Rent to xxxxx under the Lease, (Y) give rise
10
to any claim by Tenant for damages or (Z) constitute a forcible or unlawful entry, a detainer or an eviction of Tenant. Further, if Landlord chooses the option described in clause (C) above, then (xx) Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord any and all plans, specifications and construction documents prepared by or for Tenant, (yy) Tenant shall assign and convey to Landlord, without further consideration, all of Tenant’s rights and interest in any and all such plans and specifications to complete the New Bridge Improvements and (zz) the “New Bridge Commencement Date” shall be the day that Landlord tenders possession of the New Bridge Premises to Tenant.
(f) For purposes of this Section 4.1 only, “Landlord Delay” means any delay in Tenant’s prosecution of the New Bridge Improvements caused by any of the following, to the extent that such circumstance actually delays Substantial Completion of the New Bridge Improvements beyond the Additional New Bridge Allowance Deadline or New Bridge Deadline, as applicable (and as determined (in case of a dispute between the parties) by the Neutral Architect, whose determination shall be final and binding upon the parties): (i) Landlord’s requests for changes in New Bridge Improvements contrary to Landlord’s rights to do so under the New Bridge Work Letter; and (ii) Landlord’s delay in responding to any inquiries or requests from Tenant for approvals from Landlord relating to the New Bridge Improvements beyond the time periods set forth under this First Amendment and in the New Bridge Work Letter. For purposes of this Section 4.1 only, an “Unknown Condition Delay” shall mean a delay in Tenant’s prosecution of the New Bridge Improvements caused by conditions at the Project site that are unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature that differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for pursuant to this First Amendment (“Unknown Conditions”), to the extent that such Unknown Conditions actually delay Substantial Completion of the New Bridge Improvements beyond the Additional New Bridge Allowance Deadline or New Bridge Deadline, as applicable (and as determined (in case of a dispute between the parties) by the Neutral Architect, whose determination shall be final and binding upon the parties); provided, however, that in no event shall the presence of mold or asbestos discovered at the Project in connection with the New Bridge Improvements be deemed to be an Unknown Condition that gives rise to an Unknown Condition Delay; provided, further, that notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, any removal and abatement of asbestos discovered or uncovered as a result of the New Bridge Improvements shall be Tenant’s sole responsibility as set forth in Section 6. In the event any mold is discovered as a result of the New Bridge Improvements, unless such mold was introduced by Tenant, Landlord, at its cost and expense, shall be responsible for such removal and abatement. For purposes of this Section 4.1, in no event will the Additional New Bridge Allowance Deadline or the New Bridge Deadline be extended by more than eight (8) months in the aggregate as a result of any Force Majeure and any Unknown Condition Delay (the “Extension Cap”).
(g) Tenant shall be responsible to pay Landlord, as Additional Rent, the cost of Tenant’s consumption of power, water, and other utility services used in connection with Tenant’s performance of the New Bridge Improvements. Landlord shall make available without charge to Tenant upon Tenant’s reasonable request a reasonable amount of “parking,” “staging” and “lay-down” areas in reasonable proximity to the New Bridge Improvements to facilitate the
11
New Bridge Improvements. Tenant shall: (i) maintain such area in a neat, organized, and safe manner; and (ii) comply with Landlord’s reasonable requirements regarding security, safety, additional insurance, access controls, appearance, and scheduling of deliveries.
(h) Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost to repair any and all damage caused to the Buildings (including such Buildings’ systems) by Tenant, Tenant’s contractors or subcontractors, or any of their respective employees, agents or representatives arising out of the prosecution of the New Bridge Improvements.
(i) In no event shall Tenant be obligated to use any portion of the New Bridge Allowance; provided, however, unless Landlord elects otherwise in accordance with Section 4.1(e), Tenant shall cause the New Bridge Improvements to be constructed in accordance with this Amendment and the New Bridge Work Letter, and upon Final Completion thereof, shall provide to Landlord the documentation and comply with the obligations described in the definition of “Final Completion” set forth in Section 3 of the New Bridge Work Letter, regardless of whether Tenant uses any portion of the New Bridge Allowance and in the same fashion as if Tenant needed to satisfy such conditions and provide such documentation in order to receive the New Bridge Allowance from Landlord.
4.2. Corridor Improvements. Landlord shall make available to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance of up to Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the “Corridor Allowance”) in order to fund improvements (the “Corridor Improvements”) to the Corridor Premises consistent with the Permitted Use. The Corridor Improvements shall include demising the Corridor Premises such that the Corridor Premises functions as a fire rated egress pathway from the south stairwell on the first (1st) floor of the 440 Building to the southwest exterior door of the 440 Building. The Corridor Improvements shall be performed by Tenant and shall be subject to the applicable terms of the Lease and the Work Letter as if the Corridor Improvements were (a) a Phase and (b) Expansion Premises Tenant Improvements. The Corridor Allowance shall be in addition to the Expansion TI Allowance, but shall be deemed to be a part of the Expansion TI Allowance and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease and the Work Letter applicable to the Expansion TI Allowance (including the Disbursement Conditions); provided, however, that (y) Tenant’s use of the Corridor Allowance shall not increase Basic Annual Rent as provided in Section 6.1(a) of the Lease and (z) the Corridor Allowance may be applied by Tenant only toward permitted costs and expenses (as set forth in Section 5.5 of the Lease, except that Section 5.5(g) shall not be applicable to the Corridor Allowance) relating to the Corridor Improvements. For purposes of clarity, but subject to Section 4.4, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of the Corridor Improvements to the extent such cost is in excess of the Corridor Allowance. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in good faith to permit Tenant to perform the Corridor Improvements, including providing Tenant with access to portions of the Buildings outside of the Premises as necessary for the completion of the Corridor Improvements.
4.3. Existing Bridge Improvements. In connection with the Expansion Premises Tenant Improvements for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises and the Corridor Improvements, Tenant may construct improvements (the “Existing Bridge Improvements”) to the Existing
12
Bridge Premises consistent with the Permitted Use. The Existing Bridge Improvements shall be performed by Tenant and shall be subject to the applicable terms of the Lease and the Work Letter as if the Existing Bridge Improvements were Expansion Premises Tenant Improvements. Subject to Section 4.4, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the entire cost of the Existing Bridge Improvements.
4.4. Use of Allowances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, the Expansion TI Allowance for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises and the Corridor Allowance may be used by Tenant for the Expansion Premises Tenant Improvements for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises, the Corridor Improvements or the Existing Bridge Improvements, or any combination thereof.
5. Curtainwall Punchlist. The remaining Punchlist Items in connection with the work set forth in Section 1(f) of Exhibit N of the September Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Curtainwall Punchlist”). Landlord shall diligently endeavor to cause its contractor to complete the Curtainwall Punchlist by July 15, 2015, subject to extension as a result of Force Majeure and Tenant Delay. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to perform or cause to be performed the Curtainwall Punchlist in a manner so as to cause as little interference with Tenant as is reasonably possible.
6. Condition of Premises. Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the condition of the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises or the New Bridge Premises (including the condition of the Buildings or the Project as it relates to the constructability of or suitability for the New Bridge Improvements) or with respect to the suitability of the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises or the New Bridge Premises for the conduct of Tenant’s business. Tenant acknowledges that (a)(i) it is fully familiar with the condition of the Existing Bridge Premises and the Corridor Premises, (ii) it is generally familiar with the condition of the Buildings and the Project as it relates to the constructability of or suitability for the New Bridge Improvements and (iii) as of the New Bridge Commencement Date, will be fully familiar with the condition of the New Bridge Premises and, notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, agrees (A) that it took the Existing Bridge Premises in its condition “as is” as of the Existing Bridge Commencement Date, (B) to take the New Bridge Premises in its condition “as is” as of the first day of the New Bridge Commencement Date and (C) that it took the Corridor Premises in its condition “as is” as of the Corridor Commencement Date, (b) Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, repair or otherwise prepare any portion of the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises or the New Bridge Premises for Tenant’s occupancy or to pay for any improvements to the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises or the New Bridge Premises, except as may be expressly provided in this First Amendment or set forth in the Lease and (c) Tenant accepts the condition of the Buildings and the Project (as it relates to the constructability of or suitability for the New Bridge Improvements) in their condition “as is” as of the First Amendment Date. Tenant’s taking of possession of the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises or the New Bridge Premises, as applicable, shall, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant, conclusively establish that the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises or the New Bridge Premises, as applicable, were at such time in good, sanitary and satisfactory
13
condition and repair. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall remediate or remove any asbestos that is discovered or uncovered as a result of Tenant’s construction of the New Bridge Improvements in accordance with, and to the extent required by, Applicable Laws. Tenant assumes responsibility for the condition of the Buildings and the Project as each relates to the constructability of and suitability for the New Bridge Improvements (and, for the sake of clarity, Landlord has no obligation to alter, repair or otherwise prepare any portion of the Building or the Project for the sole purpose of making it suitable for the New Bridge Improvements); provided, however, in no event shall Tenant be responsible (except through Operating Expenses if permitted under the Lease) for any condition of the Building or the Project that would have existed regardless of the construction of the New Bridge Improvements and for which Tenant is not otherwise responsible under any other provision of the Lease; provided, further, that Tenant shall be responsible to remedy any non-compliance with Applicable Laws, to the extent such non-compliance would not have existed but for the construction of the New Bridge Improvements.
7. Early Access to Existing Bridge Premises and Corridor Premises. Tenant acknowledges that it has had access to the Existing Bridge Premises and the Corridor Premises from and after October 15, 2014 in order to begin construction of certain improvements within the Existing Bridge Premises and the Corridor Improvements. For purposes of clarity, in addition to any other Tenant Delay, the term “Tenant Delay,” as used in the Lease shall include any delay in Landlord’s prosecution of Landlord’s Work for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises or the Existing Bridge Landlord Work caused by Tenant’s exercise of its early access rights set forth in this paragraph, to the extent that such circumstance actually delays Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises or the Existing Bridge Landlord Work, as applicable, beyond the date when Substantial Completion would have otherwise occurred (as determined by the Neutral Architect if Landlord and Tenant disagree and whose determination shall be final and binding upon the parties). Tenant shall furnish to Landlord evidence satisfactory to Landlord that insurance coverages required of Tenant under the provisions of Article 22 of the Lease are in effect with respect to the Existing Bridge Premises and the Corridor Premises, and such entry shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Lease, other than the payment of Basic Annual Rent and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses (in both cases, with respect to the Existing Bridge Premises and the Corridor Premises only).
8. Canopy. Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall not be required to construct the Canopy and any and all prior obligations to construct the Canopy (whether set forth in the September Letter, Exhibit N to the Lease or otherwise) shall be null and void and of no further force or effect.
9. Rentable Area and Pro Rata Shares.
9.1. Notwithstanding anything in the Existing Lease to the contrary, the Rentable Area (expressed in rentable square feet) and Tenant’s Pro Rata Shares shall be as set forth below:

* Subject to adjustment based upon the Rentable Area of the New Bridge Premises as of the New Bridge Commencement Date.
** Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Tenant is the only tenant leasing space in the 440 Building, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the 440 Building (for purposes of calculating Operating Expenses) shall be deemed to be 100%.
9.2. For purposes of clarity, since Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the 410 Building is 100%, as of the Existing Bridge Commencement Date, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the Existing Bridge shall also be 100%.
9.3. For purposes of clarity, since Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the 420 Building is 100%, as of the New Bridge Commencement Date, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the New Bridge shall also be 100%.
9.4. To the extent Tenant is the only tenant leasing space in the 440 Building and no other party (including Landlord) is performing improvements in the 440 Building in preparation for a new tenant, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of all utilities supplied to the 440 Building. To the extent any such costs fall outside of Operating Expenses, Tenant shall pay such amount to Landlord as Additional Rent upon Landlord’s demand.
10. Surrender Premises.
10.1. If, as of the Expansion Option Termination Date, Tenant has not exercised its Expansion Option with respect to the entire first (1st) floor of the 440 Building, then, Landlord
16
shall have the option (but not the obligation) (the “Surrender Option”) to require Tenant to surrender the Corridor Premises to Landlord by providing Tenant with ninety (90) days prior written notice (the “Surrender Notice”). In the event Landlord provides the Surrender Notice, Tenant shall surrender the Corridor Premises to Landlord prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the day (the “Corridor Premises Expiration Date”) that is ninety (90) days after Landlord’s delivery of the Surrender Notice in the condition required by the Lease for, and in accordance with the terms of the Lease with respect to, surrendering Premises, including Section 19.2 of the Lease (collectively, the “Surrender Requirements”). The Term of the Lease with respect to the Corridor Premises only shall expire on the Corridor Premises Expiration Date. Commencing on the later of (q) the Corridor Premises Expiration Date and (r) the day (the “Surrender Effective Date”) that Tenant actually surrenders the Corridor Premises to Landlord in accordance with the Surrender Requirements, (y) the Lease with respect to the Corridor Premises only shall terminate and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further obligations or liabilities to the other under the Lease with respect to the Corridor Premises, except for (i) such obligations or liabilities that expressly survive the expiration or termination of the Lease and (ii) Landlord’s rights to any unpaid balance of Tenant and (z) the term “Premises,” as defined in the Lease, shall no longer include the Corridor Premises.
10.2. In addition, in the event Landlord exercises the Surrender Option, Tenant shall be responsible for paying the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Landlord to (a) design and construct any additional ingress or egress pathways in, to or from the 440 Building that are required by any Applicable Law and related to Tenant’s occupancy of the Initial 440 Expansion Premises, (b) procure and install either (in Landlord’s sole discretion) a separate electric meter or an electric submeter to measure the electricity supplied to the first (1st) floor of the 440 Building and (c) demolish any improvements installed in the Corridor Premises by or on behalf of Tenant (including the Corridor Improvements) and restore the Corridor Premises to substantially the same condition it was in prior to installation of any improvements installed in the Corridor Premises by or on behalf of Tenant (including the Corridor Improvements), and in each case shall pay Landlord for such reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Landlord upon Landlord’s demand.
11. Sales Tax Exemption. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant has provided to Landlord a Certificate (the “440 Exemption Certificate”) issued to Tenant by the Westchester County XXX with respect to the second (2nd) floor of the 440 Building. Landlord will cooperate (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) with Tenant so as to ensure compliance with the requirements of the XXX Documentation regarding any use of the 440 Exemption Certificate, including but not limited to any required reporting of purchases. Within sixty (60) days after final completion (as reasonably determined by Landlord) of Landlord’s Work for the Initial 440 Expansion Premises, Landlord, in consultation with Tenant, shall reconcile and reach agreement on the aggregate amount of sales and use tax exemption actually achieved as a direct result of any use of the 440 Exemption Certificate and within thirty (30) days thereafter, Landlord shall deliver a check, payable to Tenant, in such agreed upon amount. In the event Landlord and Tenant are unable to timely reach agreement, the dispute shall be determined by arbitration under Article 50 of the Existing Lease.
17
12. Early Termination Option. Section 41.1(c) of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“(c) On the last business day before the Early Termination Date, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to the unamortized portion (as of the Early Termination Date) of the sum of, (i) all amounts paid as commissions to any brokers in connection with this Lease (and any other lease transaction between Landlord and Tenant after the Effective Date of this Lease) and (ii) the Base TI Allowance, any Expansion TI Allowance (excluding the 440-02 MEP Allowance and the Corridor Allowance) and any Additional New Bridge Allowance. For purposes of this Section 41.1(c), amortization of any amounts which are to be amortized shall be determined utilizing an interest rate of nine percent (9%) per annum based on the remaining principal balance which would be reducing over the Term utilizing equal monthly payments of interest and principal; and”
13. Insurance. For purposes of Tenant’s insurance obligations under Article 22 of the Existing Lease, the Existing Bridge Premises, the Corridor Premises and the New Bridge Premises shall each be deemed to be a Phase. Further, Tenant shall maintain the insurance required of Tenant pursuant to Section 22.1 of the Lease as if the New Bridge Improvements were Tenant Improvements.
14. Expansion Premises. For purposes of Sections 9.2 and 18.5 of the Lease and Articles 13 and 44 of the Lease, the term “Expansion Premises” shall be deemed to include the Existing Bridge Premises (from and after the Existing Bridge Commencement Date), the Corridor Premises (from and after the Corridor Commencement Date) and the New Bridge Premises (from and after the New Bridge Commencement Date).
15. Tenant Improvements. For purposes of Section 18.8 of the Lease, the phrase “Tenant Improvements made pursuant to the Work Letter” shall be deemed to include the New Bridge Improvements and for purposes of Sections 5.6, 5.9, 21.1, 24.3, 42.1, 44.1, 48.4 and 53(a)(iv) of the Lease, the term “Tenant Improvements” shall be deemed to include the New Bridge Improvements.
16. No Default.
16.1. Tenant represents, warrants and covenants that, to the best of Tenant’s actual knowledge (without investigation or inquiry), Landlord and Tenant are not in default of any of their respective obligations under the Lease and no event has occurred that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice (or both) would constitute a default by either Landlord or Tenant thereunder. For purposes herein, Tenant’s knowledge shall mean the actual knowledge (without investigation or inquiry) of Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx or Xxxxx Xxxxx. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx nor Xxxxx Xxxxx shall have any personal liability with respect to any
18

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx nor Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx shall have any personal liability with respect to any matters set forth in this First Amendment or the Lease, including any of Landlord’s representations and/or warranties herein or in the Lease.

If Tenant fails to pay, or is late in paying, any sum due to Landlord under this New Bridge Work Letter, then Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies set forth in the Lease for nonpayment of Rent (including the right to interest and the right to assess a late charge), and for purposes of any litigation instituted with regard to such amounts the same shall be considered Rent. All material and equipment furnished by Tenant or its contractors as the New Bridge Improvements shall be new or “like new;” the New Bridge Improvements shall be performed in a first-class, workmanlike manner; and the quality of the New Bridge Improvements shall be of a nature and character not less than Landlord’s general standards for the Project.

Tenant shall prepare final plans and specifications for the New Bridge Improvements that (a) are consistent with and are logical evolutions of the Approved Initial Construction Plans and (b) incorporate any other Tenant-requested (and Landlord-approved) Changes (as defined below).

Such Construction Plans 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. Tenant shall then resubmit the revised Construction Plans to Landlord for approval, except the turn-around approval period afforded to Landlord with respect to any revisions shall be seven (7) business days.

Either Landlord or Tenant may request Changes after Landlord approves the Approved Plans by notifying the other party thereof in writing in substantially the same form as the AIA standard change order form (a “Change Request”), which Change Request shall detail the nature and extent of any requested Changes, including (a) the Change, (b) the party required to perform the Change and (c) any modification of the Approved Plans and the Schedule, as applicable, necessitated by the Change. If the nature of a Change requires revisions to the Approved Plans, then the requesting party shall be solely responsible for the cost and expense of such revisions and any increases in the cost of the New Bridge Improvements as a result of such Change. Change Requests shall be signed by the requesting party’s Authorized Representative.
(b) Approval of Changes. All Change Requests shall be subject to the other party’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
F-3
delayed. The non-requesting party shall have five (5) business days after receipt of a Change Request to notify the requesting party in writing of the non-requesting party’s decision either to approve or object to the Change Request. The non-requesting party’s failure to respond within such five (5) business day period shall be deemed approval by the non-requesting party.
2.4. Approvals. It shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold any consent or approval related to the New Bridge Improvements if, in Landlord’s reasonable determination, any such plans, Change or other request could reasonably be expected to adversely impact any of Landlord’s Building Systems and Structures.
2.5. Preparation of Estimates. Tenant shall, before proceeding with any Change, using its best efforts, prepare as soon as is reasonably practicable (but in no event more than five (5) business days after delivering a Change Request to Landlord or receipt of a Change Request) an estimate of the increased costs or savings that would result from such Change, as well as an estimate on such Change’s effects on the Schedule. Landlord shall have five (5) business days after receipt of such information from Tenant to (a) in the case of a Tenant-initiated Change Request, approve or reject such Change Request in writing, or (b) in the case of a Landlord-initiated Change Request, notify Tenant in writing of Landlord’s decision either to proceed with or abandon the Landlord-initiated Change Request.

The QCP shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable review and approval and shall specifically address the New Bridge Improvements. Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the QCP is regularly implemented on a scheduled basis and shall provide Landlord with reasonable prior notice and access to attend all inspections and meetings between Tenant and its general contractor.

6. New Bridge Allowance.
6.1. Application of New Bridge Allowance. Landlord shall contribute, in the following order, the Base New Bridge Allowance and, if properly requested by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease, the Additional New Bridge Allowance toward the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of the New Bridge Improvements, in accordance with Article 4 of the First Amendment. If the entire New Bridge Allowance is not applied toward or reserved for the costs of the New Bridge Improvements, then Tenant shall not be entitled to a credit of such unused portion of the New Bridge Allowance. Tenant may use the Base New Bridge Allowance and, if properly requested by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease, the Additional New Bridge Allowance for the reimbursement to Tenant of construction and other costs in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Lease and this New Bridge Work Letter.
6.2. Approval of Budget for the New Bridge Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth elsewhere in this New Bridge Work Letter or the Lease, Landlord shall not have any obligation to expend any portion of the New Bridge Allowance until Landlord and Tenant shall have approved in writing the budget for the New Bridge Improvements (the “Approved Budget”). In addition, Landlord shall not have any obligation to expend any portion of the New Bridge Allowance until Tenant has Substantially Completed the New Bridge Improvements. Prior to (a) Landlord’s approval of the Approved Budget and (b) Tenant’s completion of the New Bridge Improvements in accordance with the Approved Plans, Tenant shall pay all of the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the New Bridge Improvements as they become due. Landlord shall not be obligated to reimburse Tenant for costs or expenses relating to the New Bridge Improvements that exceed the amount of the New Bridge Allowance. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval of any budget for New Bridge Improvements that is proposed by Tenant. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within (10) business days after receipt of any budget (complete with all supporting documentation for each budget line item) for the New Bridge Improvements whether Landlord approves or objects to such budget and of the manner, if any, in which the budget is unacceptable. Tenant shall then resubmit the revised budget to Landlord for approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord’s approval of or objection to any revised budget and Tenant’s correction of the same shall be in accordance with this Section (except that Landlord shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the revised budget to notify Tenant whether Landlord approves or objects to the revised budget and of the manner, if any, in which the revised budget is unacceptable) until Landlord has approved the budget in writing or been deemed to have approved it. The iteration of the budget that is approved or deemed approved by Landlord without objection shall be referred to herein as the “Approved Budget.” Landlord’s failure to respond within any applicable time period set forth in this Section 6.2 shall be deemed approval by Landlord. Disagreements regarding the approval of the Approved Budget shall be resolved by the Neutral Architect in accordance with Section 4.2(h) of the Lease.
6.3. Fund Requests. Upon submission by Tenant to Landlord of (a) (i) with respect to any request upon Substantial Completion, all items required by Section 4.1(b) of the First Amendment to show Substantial Completion of the New Bridge Improvements or (ii) with
F-6
respect to any request upon Final Completion, all items required by Section 3 to show Final Completion of the New Bridge Improvements, (b) a statement (a “Fund Request”) setting forth the total amount of the New Bridge Allowance requested, (c) a summary of the New Bridge Improvements performed using one or more AIA standard form Application for Payment (G 702), each executed by the general contractor and by the architect, (d) invoices from the general contractor, the architect, and any subcontractors, material suppliers and other parties requesting payment with respect to the amount of the New Bridge Allowance then being requested and (e) unconditional lien releases from the general contractor and each subcontractor and material supplier with respect to previous payments made by either Landlord or Tenant for the New Bridge Improvements each in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord and complying with Applicable Laws (for purposes of clarity, Tenant shall provide such unconditional lien releases for the full amount requested by Tenant), then Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days following receipt by Landlord of a Fund Request and the accompanying materials required by this Section, pay to Tenant (for reimbursement of costs and expenses for the New Bridge Improvements in accordance with the Lease and this New Bridge Work Letter) the amount of the New Bridge Improvement costs set forth in such Fund Request; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be obligated to make any payments under this Section in excess of the New Bridge Allowance.
6.4. Accrual Information. In addition to the other requirements of this Section 6, Tenant shall, no more often than once every calendar quarter during construction of the New Bridge Improvements, provide Landlord with a written summary of all work performed by Tenant or its agents, employees or contractors for which a Fund Request has not yet been issued to Landlord, including the following: the amount that Tenant will seek from Landlord related to such work and the dates on which such work was performed. Such information shall be provided to Landlord within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s request therefor. Such information will be provided to Landlord for informational purposes only and will in no event limit the amounts for which Tenant can request reimbursement pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment and this Work Letter.
7. Miscellaneous.
7.1. Incorporation of Lease Provisions. Without limiting the applicability of any other provision of the Lease that is not inconsistent with this New Bridge Work Letter, Articles 27, 37 and 38 and Sections 43.1, 43.3, 43.4, 43.5, 43.6, 43.7, 43.9, 43.10, 43.12, 43.13 and 43.15 of the Lease are incorporated into this New Bridge Work Letter by reference, and shall apply to this New Bridge Work Letter in the same way that they apply to the Lease.
7.2. General. This New Bridge Work Letter shall apply to the New Bridge Improvements only and shall not apply to improvements performed in any premises (other than the New Bridge Premises) added to the Premises at any time or from time to time, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise; or to any portion of the Premises or any additions to the Premises in the event of a renewal or extension of the original Term, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise, unless the Lease or any amendment or supplement to the Lease expressly provides that such additional premises are to be delivered to Tenant in the same condition as the New Bridge Premises.
