Thereafter, Landlord shall pay to Tenant (or at Tenant’s request directly to Tenant’s general contractor) the Construction Allowance in multiple disbursements (but not more than once in any calendar month) following the receipt by Landlord of the following items: (i) a request for payment and sworn statements of Tenant and contractor, (ii) final or partial lien waivers, as the case may be, from all persons performing work or supplying or fabricating materials for the Tenant Work, fully executed, acknowledged and in recordable form, which waivers may be conditioned upon receipt of payment, (iii) the Architect’s certification that the Tenant Work for which reimbursement has been requested has been finally completed, including (with respect to the last application for payment only) any punch-list items, on the appropriate AIA form or another form approved by Landlord, and, (iv) with respect to the disbursement of the last 10% of the Construction Allowance, (1) the permanent certificate of occupancy issued for the Relocation Premises, if required by applicable law, (2) the record drawing in CAD format, PDF format and hard copy required by Section 5 above, and (3) an estoppel certificate confirming such factual matters as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request (collectively, a “Completed Application for Payment”).

(b) The Construction Allowance must be used on Tenant Work performed within the Relocation Premises and the Total Construction Costs and may not be used to pay for furniture, fixtures or equipment or as rent abatement, HOWEVER, notwithstanding the foregoing, provided Tenant is not in Default, Tenant may use a portion of the Construction Allowance, not to exceed an amount equal to $35.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises, to pay for furniture, fixtures or equipment, moving costs, cabling costs, and other soft costs associated with the Relocation Premises. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for such soft costs, at Landlord’s request Tenant shall execute and deliver a letter to Landlord confirming the exact amount of the Construction Allowance used to pay for such soft costs. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for such costs, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written request that includes copies of paid invoices or receipts for reimbursement of such costs, and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for such amounts within 30 days of receipt of Tenant’s request. Tenant shall provide lien waivers as appropriate. No portion of the Construction Allowance may be used as a credit against Rent due under the Lease.
(c) The Construction Allowance must be used (i.e. work performed and invoices submitted to Landlord) by June 30, 2020, or the Construction Allowance shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto.
(d) If Landlord defaults in Landlord’s obligation to pay the Construction Allowance pursuant to Section 9 of this Exhibit B-1, or any portion thereof, within five (5) days after the date the same is due, then Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord a second written notice (“Offset Exercise Notice”) requesting payment of such unpaid amounts and notifying Landlord that Tenant intends to offset against rent if not paid. In the event that Landlord fails to contest in good faith or fully pay such amounts within ten (10) business days after such Offset Exercise Notice is received by Landlord, then provided no Default exists Tenant may withhold and offset such unpaid sums from and against 25% of Base Rent next due until paid.
