constructing the tenant improvements and developing the Premises is an amount
equal to or less than One Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 0/100 Dollars

costs of permits, and all other related costs, fees and expenses) will likely
exceed the Landlord Budget, Landlord shall notify Tenant and acquire Tenant’s
written approval prior to proceeding with the construction of the tenant

Budget, including a reasonable amount for contingencies (“Additional Budget

which party will be responsible for payment thereof, the Lease shall terminate.

of the Premises until Landlord and Tenant have approved all Additional Budget
Costs and a reasonable contingency for unforeseen and unanticipated costs, and
which party will be responsible for such Additional Budget Costs and
contingency.

development of the Premises and construction of the tenant improvements,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with a complete and accurate accounting of all of
the actual costs, fees and expenses, including relevant documentation, which

construction of the tenant improvements (collectively the “Improvement Costs”).
 In the event Landlord exceeds the Landlord Budget without acquiring Tenant’s
prior written approval, such Additional Budget Costs shall not be included in
the Improvements Costs and Tenant shall not be obligated or required to repay
the unapproved Additional Budget Costs. The parties agree Landlord shall clearly
identify the Improvement Costs in an exhibit to the Lease. The Lease shall
contain provisions which stipulate that in the event a change in local or state
