Landlord shall submit the Construction Budget to Tenant for its approval. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord within five business days of receipt, as to whether or not the Construction Budget is acceptable.

In the event a Change Order is submitted to Tenant and is not approved by Tenant within 2 business days, work on the Tenant Improvements shall continue as if the Change Order had never been requested. The cost or credit to the Tenant due to any Change Order shall be determined per the terms of such Change Order.

pay such amounts to Landlord not later than 10 business days after receipt of an invoice therefore. Landlord shall obtain a Certificate of Occupancy after the Tenant Improvements have been completed. Landlord shall not, however, be responsible for securing any environmental or operating permits or certifications which are required in order for Tenant to actually conduct its business.

(b) After construction is complete, Tenant shall be responsible for all costs related to the reproduction of “as built” Plans. In all instances where Plans are required, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a reproducible set. Landlord will also be provided with a current plot file containing the Plans at no cost to Landlord. Tenant agrees to have its Architect execute Exhibit “A” affirming Landlord’s right to the Plans.

Upon Substantial Completion of Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a sum equal to the remaining balance of Tenant’s Cost Share. In the event Tenant fails to pay to Landlord, upon issuance of a building permit, a sum equal to 50% of Tenant’s Cost Share, Landlord shall not be obligated to commence work on the Tenant Improvements for the Leased Premises. Such failure to pay shall constitute a default

The Landlord shall serve a written notice upon the Tenant within 15 days of the casualty specifying the election which it chooses to make.

11.4 In the event the Landlord rebuilds, the Tenant agrees, at its cost and expense, to forthwith remove any and all of its equipment, fixtures, stock and personal property in order to permit Landlord to expedite the construction.

The cost thereof shall be added to the next month’s rent and shall be due and payable as such, or the Landlord may deduct the same from the balance of any sum remaining in the Landlord’s hands. This provision is in addition to the right of the Landlord to terminate this Lease by reason of any default on the part of the Tenant. However, in the event that all necessary repairs are made by Tenant, the initial failure to comply with the aforesaid laws and regulations shall not constitute an event of default.

In particular, the Tenant agrees that it shall comply with the provisions of ISRA in the event of any “closing, terminating or transferring” of Tenant’s operations, as defined by and in accordance with the regulations. In the event evidence of such compliance is not delivered to the Landlord prior to surrender of the Leased Premises by the Tenant to the Landlord, it is understood and agreed that the Tenant shall be liable to pay to the Landlord an amount equal to two times the Base Rent then in effect, together with all applicable Additional Rent from the date of such surrender until such time as evidence of compliance with ISRA has been delivered to the Landlord, and together with any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in enforcing Tenant’s obligations under this paragraph. Evidence of compliance, as used herein, shall mean a “No Further Action Letter/Covenant Not to ▇▇▇ Letter”, a “Remedial Action Workplan” or utilization of one of the “Alternate Compliance Options” set forth in the ISRA regulations issued by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (“NJDEP”).

18. RIGHT OF TENANT TO MAKE ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS

Whereas, Assignor has contracted with the Architect to prepare plans, engineering drawings, architectural drawings and specifications (“Plans”) for certain tenant improvements to be made to the portion of the Property Assignor intends to occupy; and

Whereas, Assignee has conditioned the construction of such tenant improvements on an assignment of the Plans.

Now Therefore, in consideration of the covenants and promises contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

44. Assignor hereby assigns to Assignee, and consents to Assignee’s use of, all of Assignor’s rights to the Plans.

45. Assignor shall provide sufficient copies of the Plans, and sufficient copies of any revisions made to the Plans, as Assignee shall request for the efficient management of the construction of the tenant improvements, and at no cost to Assignee. Assignor also agrees to contract with the Architect to provide Assignee with a CAD disk or disks containing the Plans, at no cost to the Assignee, upon Assignee’s request during or at the conclusion of the construction,

and at any time Assignor fails to comply with any of its covenants and agreements as set forth in the Lease.

46. Architect agrees to recognize any assignment made by Assignor and agrees to cooperate with Assignee in completing the construction of the Building in the event Assignor fails to comply with any of its covenants and agreements relating to construction as set forth in the Lease. Provided however, Architect shall have no obligation to provide further services unless and until an agreement mutually acceptable to Architect and Assignee with respect to compensation for such future services, but not for any unpaid work performed on behalf of Assignor, is agreed upon and executed by all parties.

47. As long as there shall be no default by Assignor under the Lease, Assignor may continue to exercise all rights under the Plans as though no assignment had been made.

48. This agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto, their heirs, successors and assigns.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have hereunto set their hands and seals or caused these presents to be executed by their proper corporate officers.
