1. Tenant Improvements.
Pursuant to Article VII, Section 3 of the Lease, Tenant has the right to
construct a clean room upon the leased premises and other related improvements
approved by Landlord (the "Tenant Improvements"). Landlord has agreed to provide
Tenant with an improvement allowance (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance") in an
amount not to exceed Six Hundred and Forty Thousand and no/100 ($640,000.00)
Dollars (the "Maximum Tenant Improvement Allowance") for the construction of the
clean room and other related items approved by Landlord. Within forty-five (45)
days (the "Determination Date") from the execution of this Lease, Tenant will
provide Landlord with the proposed budget (the "Budget") and the actual Tenant
Improvement Allowance (the "Actual Tenant Improvement Allowance") it will
require for the Tenant Improvements. In the event the Actual Tenant Improvement
Allowance exceeds the Maximum Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be
solely liable for such excess amounts. Upon Landlord's receipt of the Budget and
Actual Tenant Improvement Allowance, Landlord and Tenant will enter into to an
amendment to the Lease to replace this Addendum to Lease and to reflect the
amount of the improvement rent (the "Improvement Rent") which shall be paid by
Tenant to Landlord during the Term of the Lease and the other terms and
conditions in this Addendum to Lease. The Improvement Rent shall be determined
as follows:
(a) The Actual Tenant Improvement Allowance
will be amortized over the ten (10) year term of the Lease at eight and one half
(8.5%) and such payments will be made monthly to Landlord in addition to the
base rent.
For example, if the Actual Tenant Improvement
Allowance required by Tenant is $640,000.00, the Tenant shall pay the
Improvement Rent during the one hundred twenty month period as
follows:
the sum of Nine Hundred Fifty Two Thousand and Ninety Three and 80/100
($952,093.80) Dollars, payable in monthly installments of Seven Thousand Nine
Hundred Thirty Four and 11/100 ($7,934.11) Dollars, due and payable on the first
day (1st) day of each and every month commencing as defined in Article II,
Section 1, (which first month's additional rental has already been received) for
the next one hundred nineteen (119) consecutive months.
2. Security for Tenant Improvement
Allowance. As a result
of the Actual Tenant Improvement
Allowance provided by Tenant to Landlord on the Determination Date, Tenant will
have elected to comply with paragraph 2(a) or 2(b) of this Addendum to Lease as
follows:
(a) In the event that the Actual Tenant
Improvement Allowance is in excess of Four Hundred Twenty Six Thousand and
no/100 ($426,000.00), Tenant will be required to deposit an unconditional
irrevocable letter of credit ("LOC") in the amount of $275,000 with Landlord as
security for the Actual Tenant Improvement Allowance (the "LOC Requirement"). In
the event that Tenant is required to comply with the LOC Requirement, Tenant
shall deliver the LOC to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the
Determination Date and prior to any materials or labor being furnished that are

that such amount is due to Landlord under the terms and conditions of this
Lease, it being understood that if Landlord or its managing agent be a
corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other entity, then such
statement shall be signed by an officer (if a corporation), a general partner
(if a partnership), a member of manager (if a limited liability company), or any
authorized party (if another entity); and The LOC will be honored by the issuing
bank without inquiry as to the accuracy thereof and regardless of whether Tenant
disputes the content of such statement. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points,
or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining the LOC. The LOC shall not be mortgaged,
assigned or encumbered in any manner whatsoever by Tenant without the prior
written consent or Landlord. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to
transfer or mortgage its interest in the Property or the leased premises and in
this Lease and Tenant agrees that in event of any such transfer or mortgage,

paying all costs and expenses in excess of the Cash Amount incurred in
