Within ten (10) business days after Lessee delivers the revised Final Space Plan to Lessor, Lessor shall advise Lessee of Lessor’s approval or disapproval of the revised Final Space Plan (which disapproval shall specify Lessor’s objections in sufficient detail so that Lessee can make the necessary revisions to satisfy such objections). Lessee and Lessor shall continue to follow the revision, delivery and notice of objections procedure and schedule set forth above until Lessor approves the Final Space Plan. Lessor will not unreasonably withhold its approval of the Final Space Plan.
2.4 Plans and Specifications. On or before the deadline date set forth in the Construction Schedule, Lessee shall deliver the Plans and Specifications to Lessor for Lessor’s approval. Within twelve (12) business days after Lessee delivers the Plans and Specifications to Lessor, Lessor shall advise Lessee of Lessor’s approval or disapproval of the Plans and

3.8 Lessee Delay. Upon the occurrence of any Lessee Delay, Lessor shall have the right to take such Lessee Delay into account and to reasonably establish the date of Substantial Completion as the date on which Lessor would have Substantially Completed the Addendum No. 6 Expansion Space Improvements but for such Lessee Delay. If there occurs any concurrent Lessee Delay and either a Lessor delay or an Unavoidable Delay (or both), such delay shall be deemed to be a Lessee Delay. Lessor shall have no obligation to expend any funds, employ any additional labor, contract for overtime work or otherwise take any action to compensate for any Lessee Delay.
