(c)Landlord’s Approval: Performance of Work. If any of Tenant’s proposed construction work will affect the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems, then the working drawings pertaining thereto must be approved by the Building’s engineer of record, which approval shall be deemed given if submitted and no response is received within ten (10) days. Landlord’s approval of such working drawings shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be deemed given if submitted to Landlord and Landlord fails to response within ten (10) days of Landlord1 s receipt, provided that (1) they comply with all Laws, (2) the improvements depicted thereon do not adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems (including the Building’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), the exterior appearance of the Building, or the appearance of the Building’s common areas or elevator lobby areas, (3) such working drawings are sufficiently detailed to allow construction of the improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, and (4) the improvements depicted thereon conform to the rules and regulations promulgated from time to time by Landlord for the construction of tenant improvements (a copy of which has been delivered to Tenant). As used herein, “Working Drawings” means the final working drawings approved by Landlord, as amended from time to time by any approved changes thereto, and “Tenant’s Work” means all improvements to be constructed in accordance with and as indicated on the Working Drawings, together with any work required by governmental authorities to be made to other areas of the Building as a result of the improvements indicated by the Working Drawings. Landlord’s approval of the Working Drawings shall not be a representation or warranty of Landlord that such drawings are adequate for any use or comply with any Law, but shall merely be the consent of Landlord thereto. Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, sign the Working Drawings to evidence its review and approval thereof. After the Working Drawings have been approved, Tenant shall cause the Tenant’s Work to be performed in substantial accordance with the Working Drawings.
4.Contract. Prior to commencing the Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall submit to Landlord the proposed contractor(s) selected by Tenant, which shall be subject to approval by Landlord, not to be unreasonably withheld and which approval shall be deemed given if submitted to Landlord and Landlord fails to response within ten (10) days of Landlord’s receipt.
5.Change Orders. Tenant may initiate changes in the Tenant’s Work. Each such change must receive the prior written approval of Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; however, (a) if such requested change would adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) (1) the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems (including the Building’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), (2) the exterior appearance of the Building, or (3) the appearance of the Building’s common areas or elevator lobby areas, or (b) if any such requested change might delay the Expansion Commencement Date, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall, upon completion of the Tenant’s Work, cause to be prepared an accurate architectural “as-built” plan of the Tenant’s Work as constructed, which plan shall be incorporated into this Exhibit B by this reference for all purposes.
6.Definitions.

B-2


necessary touch-up work, repairs and minor completion items that are necessary for final completion of the Tenant’s Work. Neither Landlord’s representative nor Tenant’s representative shall unreasonably withhold his or her agreement on punchlist items. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to cause the contractor performing the Tenant’s Work to complete all punchlist items within thirty (30) days after agreement thereon.
8.Excess Costs.

Upon Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Work and before Tenant occupies the Expansion Premises to conduct business therein, Tenant shall provide to Landlord confirmation reasonably acceptable to Landlord that the Total Construction Costs (including all changes to the Tenant’s Work) have been paid. In the event of default of payment of any portion of the Total Construction Costs, Landlord (in addition to all other remedies) shall have the same rights as for an Event of Default under the Lease, as amended.
9.Construction Management. Landlord or its Affiliate or agent shall act as a liaison between the contractor and Tenant and coordinate the relationship between the Tenant’s Work, the Building and the Building’s Systems. In consideration for Landlord’s construction supervision services, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a construction supervision fee equal to four percent (4%) of the Total Construction Costs.
