If Landlord fails to approve the Space Plan within the ten (10) day period following its receipt of the Space Plan, the Space Plan shall be deemed disapproved. If Landlord shall disapprove of any portion of the Space Plan within such ten (10) day period, Landlord shall advise Tenant of the reasons therefor and shall notify Tenant of the revisions to the Space Plan that are reasonably required by Landlord for the purpose of obtaining approval. Tenant shall thereafter submit to Landlord, for Landlord’s approval, a redesign of the Space Plan, incorporating the revisions agreed upon by the parties.

Landlord shall assign to Tenant any and all warranties and guarantees of third parties held by Landlord, with respect to the Suite 125 Improvements that Tenant is responsible to maintain pursuant to the terms of the Lease and that extend beyond the 12-month period, for enforcement directly by Tenant. If a warranty or guaranty is not assignable, then Landlord shall enforce it for the benefit of Tenant, as directed by Tenant.
