1. Definitions. For purposes of this Amendment, capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Existing Lease unless otherwise defined herein. The Existing Lease, as amended by this Amendment, is referred to collectively herein as the “Lease.” From and after the date hereof, the term “Lease,” as used in the Existing Lease, shall mean the Existing Lease, as amended by this Amendment.
2. Extension Term. The Term shall be extended by a period of thirty-six (36) months. Accordingly, the Term Expiration Date is hereby changed to January 31, 2020. The period from February 1, 2017 (the “Initial Extension Term Commencement Date”) to January 30, 2020 is referred to herein as the “Initial Extension Term”. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Initial Extension Term is not established pursuant to an Option (as described in Section 41 of the Existing Lease) and that Tenant shall continue to have two (2) Options to extend the Term by three (3) years each beyond the Initial Extension Term, in accordance with Section 41 of the Existing Lease.
3. Condition of Premises, Tenant acknowledges that (a) it is in possession of and is fully familiar with the condition of the Premises and, notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, agrees to take the same in its condition “as is” as of the first day of the Initial Extension Term, and (b) Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, repair or otherwise prepare the Premises for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the Initial Extension Term or to pay for any improvements to the Premises, except for the Extension TI Allowance, as described below.
4. Extension Improvements. Landlord shall make available to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance not to exceed Two Hundred Forty-Six Thousand Eight Hundred Eighty-Five Dollars ($246,885) (based upon Fifteen Dollars ($15.00) per square foot of rentable area in the Premises) (the “Extension TI Allowance”) to cause appropriate improvements to be constructed in the Premises (the “Extension Improvements”). Tenant shall cause the Extension Improvements to be constructed in the Premises pursuant to the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Work Letter”) at a cost to Landlord not to exceed the Extension TI Allowance.
(a) The Extension TI Allowance may be applied to the costs of (a) construction, (b) project review by Landlord (which fee shall equal three percent (3%) of the cost of the Extension Improvements, including the Extension TI Allowance), (c) to the extent applicable, commissioning of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems by a licensed, qualified commissioning agent hired by Tenant and approved by Landlord, (d) space planning, architect, engineering and other related services performed by third parties unaffiliated with Tenant, (e) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by applicable governmental authorities for permits or for inspections of the Extension Improvements, and (f) costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment and fixtures.

(c) In no event shall any unused Extension TI Allowance entitle Tenant to a credit against Rent payable under this Lease. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (a) if required by the scope of worked included as part of the Extension Improvements, a certificate of occupancy for the Premises suitable for the Permitted Use and (b) 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. The term “Substantially Complete” or “Substantial Completion” means that the Extension Improvements are substantially complete in accordance with the Approved Plans (as defined in the Work Letter), except for minor punch list items.
(d) Prior to performing the Extension Improvements in the Premises, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord evidence satisfactory to Landlord that insurance coverages required of Tenant under the provisions of Article 23 of the Lease are in effect, and Tenant’s construction of the Extension Improvements shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Lease.

(e) Landlord and Tenant shall mutually agree upon the selection of the architect, engineer, general contractor and major subcontractors, and Landlord and Tenant shall each participate in the review of the competitive bid process. Landlord may refuse to use any architects, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or material suppliers that Landlord reasonably believes could cause labor disharmony. Landlord hereby approves the use by Tenant of R.E. Xxxxxxx Architects & Planners, Inc. as Tenant’s architect for the Extension Improvements.

1.1. Authorized Representatives.
(a) Landlord designates, as Landlord’s authorized representative (“Landlord’s Authorized Representative”), (i) Xxx Xxxxx as the person authorized to initial plans, drawings, approvals and to sign change orders pursuant to this Work Letter and (ii) an officer of Landlord as the person authorized to sign any amendments to this Work Letter or the Lease. Tenant shall not be obligated to respond to or act upon any such item until such item has been initialed or signed (as applicable) by the appropriate Landlord’s Authorized Representative. Landlord may change either Landlord’s Authorized Representative upon one (1) business day’s prior written notice to Tenant.
(b) Tenant designates Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx (“Tenant’s Authorized Representative”) as the person authorized to initial and sign all plans, drawings, change orders and approvals pursuant to this Work Letter. Landlord shall not be obligated to respond to or act upon any such item until such item has been initialed or signed (as applicable) by Tenant’s Authorized Representative. Tenant may change Tenant’s Authorized Representative upon one (1) business day’s prior written notice to Landlord.
1.2. Schedule. The schedule for design and development of the Extension Improvements, including the time periods for preparation and review of construction documents, approvals and performance, shall be in accordance with a schedule to be prepared by Tenant (the “Schedule”). Tenant shall prepare the Schedule so that it is a reasonable schedule for the completion of the Extention Improvements. The Schedule shall clearly identify all activities requiring Landlord participation, including specific dates and time periods when Tenant’s contractor will require access to areas of the Project outside of the Premises. As soon as the Schedule is completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such Schedule 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 Landlord disapproves the Schedule, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its objections to such Schedule, and the parties shall confer and negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the Schedule. The Schedule shall be subject to adjustment as mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties, or as provided in this Work Letter.
1.3. Tenant’s Architects, Contractors and Consultants. The architect, engineering consultants, design team, general contractor and subcontractors responsible for the construction of the Extension Improvements shall be selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord, which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Landlord may refuse to use any architects, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or material suppliers that Landlord reasonably believes could cause labor disharmony. All Tenant contracts related to the Extension Improvements shall provide that Tenant may assign such contracts and any warranties with respect to the Extension Improvements to Landlord at any time.
2. Extension Improvements. All Extension Improvements shall be performed by Tenant’s contractor, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (subject to Landlord’s obligations with respect to any portion of the Extension TI Allowance) and in accordance with the Approved Plans (as defined below), the Lease and this Work Letter. To the extent that the total projected cost of the Extension Improvements (as projected by Landlord) exceeds the Extension TI Allowance (such excess, the “Excess TI Costs”), Tenant shall pay the costs of the Extension Improvements on a part passu basis with Landlord as such costs become due, in the proportion of Excess TI Costs payable by Tenant to the Extension TI Allowance payable by Landlord. If the cost of the Extension Improvements (as projected by Landlord) increases over Landlord’s initial projection, then Landlord may notify Tenant and Tenant shall deposit any additional Excess TI Costs with Landlord in the same way that Tenant deposited the initial Excess TI Costs. If Tenant fails to pay, or is late in paying, any sum due to Landlord under this 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 Extension Improvements shall be performed in accordance with Article 17 of the Lease; provided that, notwithstanding anything in the Lease or this Work Letter to the contrary, in the event of a conflict between this Work Letter and Article 17 of the Lease, the terms of this Work Letter shall govern.
2.1. Work Plans. Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord for approval schematics covering the Extension Improvements prepared in conformity with the applicable provisions of this Work Letter (the “Draft Schematic Plans”). The Draft Schematic Plans shall contain sufficient information and detail to accurately describe the proposed design to Landlord and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Draft Schematic Plans whether Landlord approves or
objects to the Draft Schematic Plans and of the manner, if any, in which the Draft Schematic Plans are unacceptable. Landlord’s failure to respond within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed approval by Landlord. If Landlord reasonably objects to the Draft Schematic Plans, then Tenant shall revise the Draft Schematic Plans and cause Landlord’s objections to be remedied in the revised Draft Schematic Plans. Tenant shall then resubmit the revised Draft Schematic Plans to Landlord for approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Landlord’s approval of or objection to revised Draft Schematic Plans and Tenant’s correction of the same shall be in accordance with this Section until Landlord has approved the Draft Schematic Plans in writing or been deemed to have approved them. The iteration of the Draft Schematic Plans that is approved or deemed approved by Landlord without objection shall be referred to herein as the “Approved Schematic Plans.”
2.2. Construction Plans. Tenant shall prepare final plans and specifications for the Extension Improvements that (a) are consistent with and are logical evolutions of the Approved Schematic Plans and (b) incorporate any other Tenant-requested (and Landlord-approved) Changes (as defined below).

At the time of approval of the Construction Plans Landlord shall identify any portions of the Extension Improvements that Landlord will require to be removed at the Term Expiration Date or earlier termination of the Lease.

(a) Change Request.

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 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.

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 of 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.
