* Note:

The amounts set forth in this table include the three and one-half percent (3½%) annual increases in Base Rent set forth in Section 4.1.

** Note:

Subject to adjustment based on any Additional TI Allowance (as defined in Section 5.2 below) properly requested by Tenant in accordance with Section 5.2 below.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, prior to January 1, 2021, Base Rent for the Premises shall remain payable in the applicable amounts set forth in Section 4 of the Second Amendment. Throughout the Third Amendment Extension Term, Tenant will continue to be responsible for payment of all Additional Rent and all other amounts due pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease.

 

4.     Base Rent Adjustments; Free Rent Period.

 

4.1.     Base Rent (including any increase to Base Rent arising from any disbursement of the Additional TI Allowance (as defined below) by Landlord in accordance with this Amendment) shall be subject to an annual upward adjustment of three and one-half percent (3½%) of the then-current Base Rent. The first such adjustment shall become effective commencing on January 1, 2022, and subsequent adjustments shall become effective on every successive annual anniversary for so long as the Lease continues in effect.

4.2.     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, and so long as no default by Tenant has occurred under the Lease, Tenant shall not be required to pay Base Rent for the period commencing on September 1, 2020 and expiring on December 31, 2020 (such period, the “Free Rent Period”); provided, however, that the total amount of Base Rent abated during the Free Rent Period shall not exceed Seven Hundred Eighty-Four Thousand One Hundred Three and 76/100 Dollars ($784,103.76) (the “Free Rent Cap”). During the Free Rent Period, Tenant shall continue to be responsible for the payment of all of Tenant’s other Rent obligations under the Lease, including all Additional Rent, including Operating Expenses, the Real Property Taxes, Project Property Insurance, and costs of utilities for the Premises. During any Free Rent Period (and notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary (including Exhibit H of the Original Lease)), Landlord’s management fee shall be calculated as if Tenant were paying Base Rent in the full amount required pursuant to this Amendment had the Free Rent Period not been in effect. Upon the occurrence of any default by Tenant that remains uncured after any applicable notice and cure period provided in the Lease, the Free Rent Period shall immediately expire, and Tenant shall no longer be entitled to any further abatement of Base Rent pursuant to this Section. In the event of any default by Tenant that results in termination of the Lease, then, as part of the recovery to which Landlord is entitled pursuant to the Lease, and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Landlord may be entitled pursuant to the Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord shall be entitled to the immediate recovery, as of the day immediately prior to such termination of the Lease, of the unamortized amount of Base Rent that Tenant would have paid had the Free Rent Period not been in effect.

 

5.     Condition of Premises; Additional TI Allowance.

 

5.1.     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 Third Amendment Extension Term, and (b) Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, repair or otherwise prepare the Premises for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the Third Amendment Extension Term or to pay for any improvements to the Premises, except with respect to the payment of the Additional TI Allowance as described in Section 5.2 below, if properly requested by Tenant. Should Tenant desire to construct any improvements in the Premises using the Additional TI Allowance (as defined below) (the “Additional Tenant Improvements”), such improvements will be constructed in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Work Letter”). Notwithstanding anything in Section 7(d) of the Original Lease to the contrary, Tenant will not be required to remove any of the Additional Tenant Improvements upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant of such requirement at the time of Landlord’s written consent to the Additional Tenant Improvements. In the event Landlord so notifies Tenant that any of the Additional Tenant Improvements need to be removed, such removal and any repair and/or restoration will be performed by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 7(d) of the Original Lease; provided that upon removal of any Additional Tenant Improvements, Tenant will restore the Premises to its condition existing prior to the installation of such Additional Tenant Improvements.

5.2.     If properly requested by Tenant pursuant to Section 5.3, provided Tenant is not in default under the Lease, Landlord will provide Tenant with an amount up to Three Hundred Thirty Thousand Ten and 00/100 Dollars ($330,010.00) (based upon Five Dollars ($5.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises) (the “Additional TI Allowance”). The Additional TI Allowance may be applied to the costs of (m) construction, (n) project review by Landlord (which fee shall equal three percent (3%) of the cost of the Additional Tenant Improvements, including the Additional TI Allowance), (o) commissioning of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems by a licensed, qualified commissioning agent hired by Tenant, and review of such party’s commissioning report by a licensed, qualified commissioning agent hired by Landlord, (p) space planning, architect, engineering and other related services performed by third parties unaffiliated with Tenant, (q) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by governmental authorities for permits or for inspections of the Additional Tenant Improvements, and (r) costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment and fixtures. In no event shall the Additional TI Allowance be used for (w) payments to Tenant or any affiliates of Tenant, (x) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, (y) costs arising from any default by Tenant of its obligations under the Lease or (z) costs that are recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors).

 

5.3.     Tenant shall be permitted to request the Additional TI Allowance during the time period commencing January 1, 2022 and continuing through December 31, 2022 (the “Additional TI Window”), by submitting Fund Requests (as defined in the Work Letter) to Landlord for disbursement of the unused portion of the Additional TI Allowance. After the expiration of the Additional TI Window, Landlord’s obligation to fund any such costs for which Tenant has not submitted a Fund Request to Landlord shall expire. Base Rent shall be increased, commencing as of January 1, 2022, by an amount equal to $0.017 per rentable square foot of the Premises per month for each dollar (or portion thereof) of the Additional TI Allowance that is disbursed by Landlord in accordance with this Amendment (for example, if Tenant elects to utilize the entire Additional TI Allowance, Base Rent effective January 1, 2022 would increase by $5,610.17 per month (i.e., such amount is the product of (a) $0.017, (b) $5.00 and (c) 66,002 rentable square feet), subject to annual increases as set forth in Section 4.1). The amount by which Base Rent shall be increased shall be initially determined as of the date immediately following the first disbursement of any portion of the Additional TI Allowance, and such increased Base Rent will be payable with the next succeeding Base Rent payment, and concurrently with the first payment of increased Base Rent, Tenant will pay any increased Base Rent due for the period from January 1, 2022 through such payment date. If such initial determination does not reflect use by Tenant of all of the Additional TI Allowance, the Base Rent increase shall be determined again as of the end of the Additional TI Window, with Tenant paying (on the next succeeding day that Base Rent is due under the Lease (the “TI True-Up Date”)) any underpayment of the further adjusted Base Rent for the period beginning on January 1, 2022 and ending on the TI True-Up Date.

 

5.4.     Landlord shall not be obligated to expend any portion of the Additional TI Allowance until Landlord shall have received from Tenant a letter in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto executed by an authorized officer of Tenant. In no event shall any unused Additional TI Allowance entitle Tenant to a credit against Rent payable under the Lease. Tenant hereby agrees and acknowledges that all Additional Tenant Improvements will be constructed during the existing Lease Term and/or the Third Amendment Extension Term, and the construction of such Additional Tenant Improvements shall not constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent or any other concessions in connection therewith.

6.     Termination Option. Effective as of the date of this Amendment, the termination option set forth in Article 5 of the Second Amendment is hereby deleted in its entirety and shall be of no further force or effect. For the avoidance of doubt, Article 5 of the Second Amendment is hereby deleted in its entirety and shall be of no further force or effect.

 

7.     Option to Extend. For clarity, the Option to extend the Lease Term set forth in Article 6 of the Second Amendment shall continue in full force and effect. For clarity, any other option(s) to extend set forth in the Existing Lease are hereby deleted in their entirety and shall be of no further force or effect, including Article 3 of the Addendum to Lease.

 

8.     Insurance.

 

8.1.     Tenant’s commercial general liability and automobile liability policies shall name Landlord, BioMed Realty, L.P. and their respective officers, employees, directors, representatives, agents, general partners, members, subsidiaries, affiliates and lenders (collectively with Landlord, the “Landlord Parties”) as additional insureds and Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s written request, furnish certificates evidencing such parties as additional insureds.

 

8.2.     During all construction by Tenant at the Premises, with respect to tenant improvements being constructed (including the Additional Tenant Improvements and any Alterations), insurance required in Exhibit A-1 must be in place.

 

9.     Operating Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, including Section 5(b)(i)(A), Section 8(a), Section 12(c) and Exhibit H of the Original Lease (but subject to the immediately succeeding sentence), in the event Landlord performs capital repairs or improvements to the Project (including to the roof structure and/or roof membrane on the Building), Operating Expenses will include the cost of those capital expenditures incurred (a) in replacing obsolete equipment, (b) for the primary purpose of reducing Operating Expenses or (c) required by any governmental authority to comply with changes in federal, state, municipal and local laws, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations of governmental authorities, committees, associations, or other regulatory committees, agencies or governing bodies having jurisdiction over the Premises, the Building, the Project, Landlord or Tenant, including both statutory and common law and hazardous waste rules and regulations (“Applicable Laws”) that take effect after the Lease Date or to ensure continued compliance with Applicable Laws in effect as of the Lease Date, in each case amortized over the useful life thereof, as reasonably determined by Landlord, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; provided, however, that during the Third Amendment Extension Term, the amortized amount of the foregoing capital expenditures included in Operating Expenses payable by Tenant will not exceed a total of $0.10 per rentable square foot of the Premises per month. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, (y) any capital expenditures incurred by Landlord that the Lease otherwise identifies to be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (which for clarity, includes phrases like “at Tenant’s cost,” “at [Tenant’s] own cost,” “at Tenant’s expense” and similar phrases) (such capital expenditures, “Tenant Capital Expenditures”) shall remain to be Tenant’s sole cost and expense as opposed to included in Operating Expenses as set forth above and (z) the immediately preceding sentence will not be applicable to Tenant Capital Expenditures. The Lease is hereby amended as required to effectuate this Section 9.

 

5

 

10.     Security Deposit. In or around July 2019, Landlord agreed to waive Tenant’s Security Deposit obligation. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) there is no Security Deposit required under the Lease any longer, (b) Landlord does not hold (and Landlord does not owe Tenant) any Security Deposit funds and (c) any and all provisions relating to the Security Deposit under the Lease shall be void and of no further force or effect.

 

11.     Certified Access Specialist. The Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (“CASp,” as defined in California Civil Code Section 55.52). A Certified Access Specialist can inspect the Premises and determine whether the Premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under State law. Although State law does not require a Certified Access Specialist inspection of the Premises, Landlord may not prohibit Tenant from obtaining a Certified Access Specialist inspection of the Premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of Tenant, if requested by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the Certified Access Specialist inspection, the payment of the fee for the Certified Access Specialist inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises. If Tenant requests to perform a CASp inspection of the Premises, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, retain a CASp approved in writing by Landlord (provided that Landlord may designate the CASp, at Landlord’s option) to perform the inspection of the Premises at a time agreed upon by the parties. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of any report or certificate issued by the CASp (the "CASp Report") and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly complete any modifications to the Premises or the Project (provided that if any modifications are required to areas outside the Premises, Landlord may elect, in its sole discretion, to make such modifications and invoice Tenant for the cost incurred by Landlord in connection with such modifications, which costs shall be reimbursed by Tenant as Additional Rent within ten (10) business days after invoicing) necessary to correct violations of construction related accessibility standards identified in the CASp Report, which modifications shall be performed in accordance with Article 7 of the Original Lease and will be deemed Alterations for all purposes under the Lease, including repair and maintenance. Landlord and Tenant agree that the immediately foregoing sentence represents Landlord’s and Tenant’s agreement with respect to the cost responsibility for making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the Premises, as referenced in California Civil Code Section 1938. Tenant agrees to keep the information in the CASp Report confidential except as necessary for the Tenant to complete such modifications.

12.     Broker. Tenant represents and warrants that it has not dealt with any broker or agent in the negotiation for or the obtaining of this Amendment, other than T3 Realty Advisors West Corp. (“Broker”), and agrees to reimburse, indemnify, save, defend (at Landlord’s option and with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) and hold harmless Landlord, Landlord’s affiliates, and their respective employees, agents, contractors and lenders for, from and against any and all cost or liability for compensation claimed by any such broker or agent, other than Broker, employed or engaged by it or claiming to have been employed or engaged by it. Broker is entitled to a leasing commission in connection with the making of this Amendment, and Landlord shall pay such commission to Broker pursuant to a separate agreement between Landlord and Broker.

 

13.     No Default. Tenant represents, warrants and covenants that, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, Landlord and Tenant are not in default of any of their respective obligations under the Existing Lease and no event has occurred that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice (or both) would constitute a default by either Landlord or Tenant thereunder.

 

14.     Notices. Tenant confirms that, notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, notices delivered to Tenant pursuant to the Lease should be sent to:

16.     Successors and Assigns. Each of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in this Amendment shall inure to the benefit of and shall apply to and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legatees, devisees, executors, administrators and permitted successors and assigns and sublessees. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the provisions of the Lease restricting assignment or subletting.

 

17.     Miscellaneous. This Amendment becomes effective only upon execution and delivery hereof by Landlord and Tenant. The captions of the paragraphs and subparagraphs in this Amendment are inserted and included solely for convenience and shall not be considered or given any effect in construing the provisions hereof. The words “include,” “includes,” “included” and “including” mean “‘include,’ etc., without limitation.” All exhibits hereto are incorporated herein by reference.

WORK LETTER

 

 

This Work Letter (this “Work Letter”) is made and entered into as of the [____] day of [_______], 2020, by and between BMR-BAYSHORE BOULEVARD LP, a Delaware limited liability partnership (“Landlord”), and CUTERA, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), and is attached to and made a part of that certain Third Amendment to Lease dated as of [_______], 2020 (together with the Existing Lease, as the same may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Lease”), by and between Landlord and Tenant for the Premises located at 3240 Bayshore Boulevard in Brisbane, California. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Lease.

 

1.     General Requirements.

 

1.1.     Authorized Representatives.

 

(a)     Landlord designates, as Landlord’s authorized representative (“Landlords Authorized Representative”), (i) John Bochman 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 Darren Alch (“Tenants 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 Additional Tenant 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 Additional Tenant 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.     Tenants Architects, Contractors and Consultants. The architect, engineering consultants, design team, general contractor and subcontractors responsible for the construction of the Additional Tenant 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 or may not have sufficient experience, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, to perform work in an occupied Class “A” laboratory research building and in tenant-occupied lab areas. All Tenant contracts related to the Additional Tenant Improvements shall provide that Tenant may assign such contracts and any warranties with respect to the Additional Tenant Improvements to Landlord at any time.

 

2.     Additional Tenant Improvements. All Additional Tenant 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 Additional TI Allowance if properly requested by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Third Amendment) 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 Additional Tenant Improvements (as projected by Landlord) exceeds the TI Allowance (such excess, the “Excess TI Costs”), Tenant shall advance to Landlord any Excess TI Costs within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice therefor, but in any case before Tenant commences the Additional Tenant Improvements. If the actual Excess TI Costs are less than the Excess TI Costs paid by Tenant to Landlord, Landlord shall credit Tenant with the overage paid by Tenant against Tenant’s Rent obligations, beginning after Landlord has completed the final accounting for the Additional Tenant Improvements. If the cost of the Additional Tenant 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 material and equipment furnished by Tenant or its contractors as the Additional Tenant Improvements shall be new or “like new;” the Additional Tenant Improvements shall be performed in a first-class, workmanlike manner; and the quality of the Additional Tenant Improvements shall be of a nature and character not less than the Building Standard. Tenant shall take, and shall require its contractors to take, commercially reasonable steps to protect the Premises during the performance of any Additional Tenant Improvements, including covering or temporarily removing any window coverings so as to guard against dust, debris or damage. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 5.1 of the Amendment, all Additional Tenant Improvements shall be performed in accordance with Article 7 of the Original Lease and will be deemed Alterations for all purposes under the Lease, including repair and maintenance; provided that, notwithstanding anything in the Lease or this Work Letter to the contrary, in the event of a conflict between the Amendment (including, without limitation, Section 5.1) or this Work Letter and Article 7 of the Original Lease, the terms of the Amendment or Work Letter (as applicable) shall govern.

2.1.     Work Plans. Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord for approval schematics covering the Additional Tenant 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 Additional Tenant 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). As soon as such final plans and specifications (“Construction Plans”) are completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such Construction Plans shall be submitted by Tenant to Landlord in electronic .pdf, CADD and full-size hard copy formats, and 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 the Construction Plans are disapproved by Landlord, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its objections to such Construction Plans, and the parties shall confer and negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the Construction Plans. Promptly after the Construction Plans are approved by Landlord and Tenant, two (2) copies of such Construction Plans shall be initialed and dated by Landlord and Tenant, and Tenant shall promptly submit such Construction Plans to all appropriate Governmental Authorities for approval. The Construction Plans so approved, and all change orders specifically permitted by this Work Letter, are referred to herein as the “Approved Plans.”

2.3.     Changes to the Additional Tenant Improvements. Any changes to the Approved Plans (each, a “Change”) shall be requested and instituted in accordance with the provisions of this Article 2 and shall be subject to the written approval of the non-requesting party in accordance with this Work Letter.

 

(a)     Change Request. Either Landlord or Tenant may request Changes after Landlord approves the Approved Plans by notifying the other party thereof in writing in substantially the same form as the AIA standard change order form (a “Change Request”), which Change Request shall detail the nature and extent of any requested Changes, including (a) the Change, (b) the party required to perform the Change and (c) any modification of the Approved Plans and the Schedule, as applicable, necessitated by the Change. If the nature of a Change requires revisions to the Approved Plans, then the requesting party shall be solely responsible for the cost and expense of such revisions and any increases in the cost of the Additional Tenant Improvements as a result of such Change. Change Requests shall be signed by the requesting party’s Authorized Representative.

Such policy shall, on a completed replacement cost basis for the full insurable value at all times, insure against loss or damage by fire, vandalism and malicious mischief and other such risks as are customarily covered by the so-called “broad form extended coverage endorsement” upon all Additional Tenant Improvements and the general contractor’s and any subcontractors’ machinery, tools and equipment, all while each forms a part of, or is contained in, the Additional Tenant Improvements or any temporary structures on the Premises, or is adjacent thereto; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, insurance coverage with respect to the general contractor’s and any subcontractors’ machinery, tools and equipment shall be carried on a primary basis by such general contractor or the applicable subcontractor(s). Tenant agrees to pay any deductible, and Landlord is not responsible for any deductible, for a claim under such insurance.

Tenant assumes sole responsibility and liability for any and all injuries or the death of any persons, including Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors and their respective employees, agents and invitees, and for any and all damages to property arising from any act or omission on the part of Tenant, Tenant’s contractors or subcontractors, or their respective employees, agents and invitees in the prosecution of the Additional Tenant Improvements. Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend (at the option of and with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party(ies)), save, reimburse and hold harmless Landlord and its affiliates, employees, agents and contractors from and against all Liabilities due to, because of or arising from any and all such injuries, death or damage, whether real or alleged, and Tenant and Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors shall assume and defend at their sole cost and expense all such Liabilities; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Work Letter shall be deemed to indemnify Landlord from or against liability to the extent arising directly from Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct.

Landlord shall not be obligated to reimburse Tenant for costs or expenses relating to the Additional Tenant Improvements that exceed the amount of the Additional TI Allowance. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval of any budget for Additional Tenant Improvements that is proposed by Tenant.

Any additional Fund Requests submitted by Tenant after the Additional TI Window or more often than every thirty (30) days shall be void and of no force or effect.
