10.California Civil Code Section 1938. Pursuant to California Civil Code § 1938, Landlord hereby states that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) (defined in California Civil Code § 55.52).
Accordingly, pursuant to California Civil Code § 1938(e), Landlord hereby further states as follows: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises".
In accordance with the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant agree that if Tenant requests a CASp inspection of the Premises, then Tenant shall pay (i) the fee for such inspection, and (ii) except as may be otherwise expressly provided in this Amendment, the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises.
11.1.This Amendment and the attached exhibits, which are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Amendment, set forth the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the matters set forth herein. There have been no additional oral or written representations or agreements. Tenant shall not be entitled, in connection with entering into this Amendment, to any free rent, allowance, alteration, improvement or similar economic incentive to which Tenant may have been entitled in connection with entering into the Lease, except as may be otherwise expressly provided in this Amendment.
11.2.Except as herein modified or amended, the provisions, conditions and terms of the Lease shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
11.3.In the case of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Lease and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and control.
11.4.Submission of this Amendment by Xxxxxxxx is not an offer to enter into this Amendment but rather is a solicitation for such an offer by Xxxxxx. Landlord shall not be bound by this Amendment until Xxxxxxxx has executed and delivered it to Tenant.
11.5.Each party hereto, and their respective successors and assigns shall be authorized to rely upon the signatures of all of the parties hereto which are delivered by facsimile, PDF or DocuSign (or the like) as constituting a duly authorized, irrevocable, actual, current delivery hereof with original ink signatures of each person and entity. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original part and all of which together shall constitute a single agreement.
11.6.Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given in the Lease.
11.7.Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord, its trustees, members, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, employees, mortgagee(s) and agents, and the respective principals and members of any such agents harmless from all claims of any brokers (other than Savills) claiming to have represented Tenant in connection with this Amendment. Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant, its trustees, members, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, employees, and agents, and the respective principals and members of any such agents harmless from all claims of any brokers claiming to have represented Landlord in connection with this Amendment. Tenant acknowledges that any assistance rendered by any agent or employee of any affiliate of Landlord in connection with this Amendment has been made as an accommodation to Tenant solely in furtherance of consummating the transaction on behalf of Landlord, and not as agent for Tenant.

1.1Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the "Allowance") in the amount of $8,000,000.00 to be applied toward the Allowance Items (defined in Section 1.2 below). Tenant shall be entitled to utilize the Allowance from and after the date of full execution and delivery of the Agreement. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs associated with the Tenant Improvement Work, including the costs of the Allowance Items, to the extent such costs exceed the lesser of (a) the Allowance, or (b) the aggregate amount that Landlord is required to disburse for such purpose pursuant to this Work Letter. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, in the event that Tenant fails to use the entire Allowance by May 31, 2028 (the "Allowance Deadline"), as such date may be extended due to any Landlord Delays or Force Majeure Delays, the unused amount shall revert to Landlord and Tenant shall have no further rights with respect thereto. As used herein, the term "Landlord Delays" means (i) the failure of Landlord to timely approve or disapprove any matter requiring Landlord's approval relating to this Work Letter; or (ii) unreasonable (when judged in accordance with industry custom and practice) interference by Landlord with the substantial completion of the Tenant Improvement Work and which objectively precludes or delays the construction of the Tenant Improvement Work beyond the Allowance Deadline.

In the event of a Landlord Delay or Force Majeure Delay, then the Allowance Deadline shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay so long as Tenant delivers written notice to Landlord describing the Landlord Delay or Force Majeure Delay, as applicable, within ten (10) business days after the occurrence of the event.
1.2Disbursement of Allowance.

Subject to the terms hereof, within 30 days after receiving such materials, Landlord shall deliver a check to Tenant, payable to Tenant in the amount requested by Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence, less a 10% retention with respect to all hard costs (as distinguished from architectural, engineering and permitting costs) except to the extent that such 10% retention has already been reflected in such request for payment (the aggregate amount of such retentions. Whether withheld by Landlord or reflected in such requests for payment) shall be referred to in this Work Letter as the "Final Retention"), or (b) the amount of any remaining portion of the Allowance (not including the Final Retention). Landlord's payment of such amounts shall not be deemed Landlord's approval or acceptance of the work or materials described in Xxxxxx's payment request.
1.2.2.2Final Retention. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a check for the Final Retention, together with any other undisbursed portion of the Allowance required to pay for the Allowance Items, within 30 days after the latest of (a) the completion of the Tenant Improvement Work in accordance with the approved plans and specifications; (b) Landlord's receipt of (i) copies of all Tenant Improvement Contracts; (ii) copies of invoices for all labor and materials provided to the Premises; (iii) executed unconditional mechanic's lien releases satisfying California Civil Code § 8134 for all prior payments made pursuant to Section 1.2.2.1 above (to the extent not previously provided to Landlord), together with executed unconditional final mechanic's lien releases satisfying California Civil Code § 8138 for all labor and materials provided to the Premises subject to the Final Retention; (iv) a certificate from Tenant's architect, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, certifying that the Tenant Improvement Work has been substantially completed; (v) evidence that all governmental approvals required for Tenant to legally occupy the Premises have been obtained; and (vi) any other information reasonably requested by Landlord; (c) Xxxxxx's delivery to Landlord of "as built" drawings (in CAD format, if requested by Landlord); or (d) Tenant's compliance with Landlord's standard "close-out" requirements regarding city approvals, closeout tasks, Xxxxxx's contractor, financial close-out matters, and Xxxxxx's vendors. Xxxxxxxx's payment of the Final Retention shall not be deemed Landlord's approval or acceptance of the work or materials described in Tenant's payment requests.
2.1Applicable Lease Provisions. Without limitation, the Tenant Improvement Work shall be subject to Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 8 of the Original Lease, provided, however, the amount of "coordination fee" to be charged in connection with the Tenant Improvement Work shall be as specified in Section 2.3 below.
2.2Plans and Specifications. Landlord shall provide Tenant with notice approving or disapproving any proposed plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvement Work within the Required Period (defined below) after the later of Landlord's receipt thereof from Tenant or the mutual execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Any such notice of disapproval shall describe with reasonable specificity the basis for Xxxxxxxx's disapproval and the changes that would be necessary to resolve Landlord's objections. If Landlord fails to timely respond, then Tenant may deliver to Landlord a written notice, which written notice must state in bold and all caps, "FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS WRITTEN NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER RECEIPT HEREOF SHALL CONSTITUTE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE TENANT IMPROVEMENT WORK." If Landlord fails to respond within such 5-business day period, then Landlord will be deemed to have approved the applicable plans and specifications. If, when Tenant requests Xxxxxxxx's approval of the plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvement Work, Tenant has specifically requested that Landlord identify any such Tenant Improvements that Landlord will require to be removed pursuant to Section 8 of the Original Lease, and Xxxxxxxx's approval for such plans and specifications are deemed approve as provided herein, Landlord shall be deemed to not require the Tenant Improvement Work to be removed upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

Landlord a fee (the "Coordination Fee") in an amount equal to 1.5% of the cost of the Tenant Improvement Work. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, in no event shall the Coordination Fee under this Work Letter exceed $25,000.00 in the aggregate.
2.4Tenant Default.

2.5Other. This Work Letter shall not apply to any space other than the Premises.
