EXHIBIT “B”

 

IMPROVEMENT Allowance

 

1.Landlord shall, in the manner set forth in Section 5.2(b) of the Lease, provide to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance of up to $5.00 per rentable square foot of the  Premises C and Premises D per annum (the “Improvement Allowance”) provided, however, the Improvement Allowance with respect to Premises D shall be prorated and reduced to reflect the number of months remaining in the Term for Premises D following the Premises D Rent Commencement Date.  The Improvement Allowance shall be used by Tenant to pay for the hard and soft costs to construct certain improvements with respect to the Premises C and Premises D (“Tenant’s Improvements”). By way of example, if the Premises C Rent Commencement Date occurs on April 1, 2017, the Improvement Allowance with respect to Premises C would be $398,471.70 and, if the Premises D Rent Commencement Date occurs on November 1, 2020, the Improvement Allowance with respect to Premises D would be $552,615.00. 

2.Landlord agrees that Tenant may apply the Improvement Allowance towards hard construction costs, soft costs (such as permitting, architectural and engineering fees), voice and data wiring and cabling costs, and furniture, fixtures and equipment expenses subject to and in accordance with the same terms and conditions set forth in Sections 5.2(b) and 5.2(c) of the Lease. 

3.Tenant acknowledges that all costs for Tenant’s Improvements in excess of the Improvement Allowance shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Tenant. 

4.All Tenant Improvements shall: (a) be subject to the same terms and conditions set forth in Section 5 of the Lease applicable to the Tenant’s Work, provided, however, in no event shall Tenant be required to post any lien bonds or surety payment and performance bonds with respect to the Tenant Improvements; (b) based on plans and specifications previously approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (c) performed in a good and workmanlike manner by contractors previously approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and (d) be in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. 

5.Landlord shall disburse the Improvement Allowance to Tenant on a periodic basis (but no more than once per month) in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5.2 of the Lease applicable to the Landlord’s Contribution. 

6.Tenant must request disbursement of the Improvement Allowance on or before January 31, 2022, the failing of which shall cause Tenant to forfeit any portion of the Improvement Allowance not requisitioned by Tenant as of such date. Tenant shall not be permitted to apply any unused Improvement Allowance toward Rent or other amounts due under the Lease. 

7.   If Landlord fails timely to pay any portion of Landlord’s Contribution or the Improvement Allowance when properly due and as to which Tenant has satisfied the requisition conditions, and such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord, 

10

 



 

then Tenant, provided no monetary or material non-monetary Event of Default of Tenant has occurred and is continuing, may deliver a second notice to Landlord, which notice shall specify the Requisition that has not been timely paid, the date upon which it was sent to Landlord, and if Landlord fails to disburse the amount expressly referenced in such notice within five (5) business days, then Tenant shall have the right to have such unpaid amount credited against the next installment(s) of Yearly Rent thereafter due under this Lease, until such sums due Tenant have been fully paid by Landlord or fully credited and accounted for.
