All Renovation Improvements shall: (i) consist of materials and finishes that are equal to or higher in quality and class than the materials and finishes currently existing in the Premises; (ii) be performed in accordance with working drawings, plans and specifications prepared by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense subject to offset by the Allowance, and previously approved in writing by Landlord in accordance with the terms of subsection b. below; and (iii) be considered alterations to the Premises subject to the applicable provisions of the Lease, including but not limited to Section 4.2 of the Initial Lease. The costs that are eligible to be reimbursed to Tenant for the Renovation Improvements shall include (a) all architectural fees and costs, construction management fees and costs, engineering fees and costs and any other fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred or payable by Tenant in connection with the performance of the Renovation Improvements; (b) all fees and charges imposed by any governmental entity or authority in connection with the Renovation Improvements; (c) sales and use taxes; (d) insurance fees associated with the construction of the Renovation Improvements; (e) testing and inspecting costs; and (f) the costs and charges for materials and labor, contractor's profit and contractor's general overhead incurred by Tenant in having the Renovation Improvements completed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is agreed that costs of the following Renovation Improvements are eligible for reimbursement to the Tenant from the Allowance: (i) the Demising Wall, (ii) all electrical work required to demise the space and (iii) relocation of the battery charging station associated with demising the space. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Tenant has commenced certain of the Renovation Improvements prior to the Amendment Effective Date and that the costs associated with such Renovation Improvements shall be eligible for reimbursement to the Tenant from the Allowance.

b. Approval of Tenant’s Plans. Prior to commencing any work on the Renovation Improvements, Tenant shall provide Landlord with working plans for the Renovation Improvements (the “Plans”). The Plans shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Landlord, which approval Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay. Landlord shall have ten (10) business days from receipt of the Plans to review and approve the Plans or state any objections in writing. The failure of Landlord to respond within the ten (10) business day period shall be deemed approval of the Plans. Any objections made by Landlord shall be reasonable in nature and stated in sufficient detail so as to allow the necessary modifications by Tenant. If necessary, the Plans, as modified by Tenant, shall be re-submitted to Landlord within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the Plans from Landlord with Landlord’s objections. Upon Landlord’s receipt of the Plans as modified, Landlord shall have five (5) business days within which to return the Plans to Tenant with any new objections, which shall be reasonable in nature and stated in sufficient detail so as to allow the necessary modifications by Tenant. The Plans, as modified by Tenant, shall be re-submitted to Landlord within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the Plans with Landlord’s latest objections. This process shall be repeated until the Plans have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant; provided, however that Landlord and Tenant agree to work together in a commercially reasonable manner so as to finally approve the Plans. Any material changes to the Plans as approved by Landlord and Tenant shall be subject to the approval of Landlord, in Landlord’s sole but reasonable discretion, which approval Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay. Landlord’s approval of the changes may be based upon whether the changes: (i) affect or are not consistent with the base structural components or systems of the Building, (ii) are visible from outside the Premises, (iii) affect safety, (iv) have or could have the effect of increasing Operating Expenses, or (v) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, are not consistent with the quality and character of the Park. Additionally, in the event the improvements reflected in such changes will not, in

Landlord’s reasonable judgment, have any intrinsic value after the expiration of the Term of the Lease, Landlord may withhold approval of such changes or may condition approval upon Tenant agreeing to remove any such improvements and restore the Premises to the condition existing prior to installation of such improvements, with all costs of removal, repair, restoration, or alterations to be borne by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall follow the same process as provided in this subsection b. for approval of any changes to the Plans until the change to the Plans has been finally approved by Landlord.

c. Performance of Renovation Improvements,  Tenant shall cause the approved Renovation Improvements work to be done in a first-class ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-like manner in conformity with all Applicable Laws. Landlord may require Tenant to provide demolition and/or lien and completion bonds in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord. Landlord must approve all contractors performing any part of the Renovation Improvements work, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Workmen's Compensation, public liability and property damage insurance, all in amounts and with companies and on forms reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be provided and at all times maintained by Tenant's contractors engaged in the performance of the Renovation Improvements work, and before proceeding with the Renovation Improvements work, certificates of such insurance shall be furnished to Landlord. Upon completion of the Renovation Improvements work, Tenant shall provide Landlord with “as built” plans, copies of all construction contracts, all operations manuals, test and balance reports, and any additional reasonably requested reports and documentation at the conclusion of the construction of the Renovation Improvements. In addition, Tenant shall provide a copy of the certificate of completion or final inspections for the Renovation Improvements work issued by Miami-Dade County, Florida.

d. Payments to Tenant from Allowance. Tenant shall be solely responsible to make any and all payments directly to Tenant’s general contractor and any subcontractors, materialmen, suppliers or laborers. Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant from the amount available under the Allowance for the Renovation Improvements work based upon applications for payment submitted to Landlord by Tenant. Landlord shall make reimbursement payments to Tenant within ten (10) days following receipt of the application for payment and all supporting documents. In support of each application for payment, Tenant shall submit to Landlord paid and receipted invoices for the completed work together with releases of liens for all such work. Tenant shall also provide such other reasonable documentation as may be requested by Landlord to substantiate the costs for the work for which Tenant requests reimbursement. If Tenant is in default under this Lease beyond any applicable grace or cure period, Landlord may, in addition to all its other available rights and remedies, withhold payment of any unpaid portion of the Allowance, even if Tenant has already paid for all or a portion of the cost of the Renovation Improvements.

e. Liens. Notwithstanding Landlord’s provision of the Allowance, Tenant specifically acknowledges and agrees that Tenant will have no authority or power, express or implied, to create or cause any construction lien or mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien or claim of any kind against the Premises, the Park or any portion thereof, and any such lien is hereby specifically prohibited. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless against any mechanic’s or other liens asserted against the Premises, the Park or any portion thereof as a result of the Renovation Improvements. 

f. Deadline to Request Allowance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall submit request for payment of the Allowance on or before December 31, 2017; if Tenant fails to request payment for all or any portion of the Allowance on or prior to December 31, 2017, any unrequested portion of the Allowance shall be retained by Landlord and no longer available to Tenant.

Subject to the conditions herein, provided that (a) Tenant has not assigned the Lease or sublet Suite 21 other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or a Service Provider License as permitted under the Lease, and (b) no event of default by Tenant exists under the Lease, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s option, to elect to extend the Term of the Lease for Suite 21 for one (1) period of five (5) years (the “Renewal TertrTj.

The Renewal Term shall be exercised by Tenant giving written notice of the exercise thereof (the “Renewal Notice”’) to Landlord on or before April 30, 2027, provided that Tenant’s failure to give the Renewal Notice by such date, whether due to Tenant’s oversight or failure to cure any existing defaults or otherwise, shall render the Renewal Term null and void. Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term of the Lease for Suite 21, and the Renewal Notice shall not be effective, if (i) Tenant fails to timely give its Renewal Notice as provided herein, or (ii) an event of default by Tenant exists under the Lease (x) when Landlord receives the Renewal Notice, or (y) upon the expiration of the Term of the Lease prior to the commencement of the Renewal Term.

B.

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any additions, alterations and improvements to Suite 21 made by or on behalf of Tenant shall not be taken into consideration in determining Fair Market Rental Value, as Tenant will be required to remove such additions, alterations and improvements, including without limitation all freezers/coolers and associated equipment, upon expiration of the Term of the Lease. If Landlord has not executed any such leases with new tenants of the Park within said twelve-month period, the new prevailing market rental rate determination shall be based on new leases for premises comparable to Suite 21 executed within said twelve-month period by owners of comparable industrial parks located in west Miami-Dade County, Florida for space of equivalent quality, size, utility and location, with the length of the extension term, concessions, allowances, brokers’ fees, legal fees and the credit standing of Tenant to be taken into account. Landlord shall deliver written notice (the “Landlord Renewal Rent Notice”) to Tenant or the Permitted Transferee (as defined in the Lease), within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of a timely Renewal Notice, which sets forth the Base Rent for Suite 21 as determined by Landlord to be payable during the Renewal Term after consideration of the factors set forth above.

C.

Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted Suite 21 in “AS-IS” condition as of the commencement of the Renewal Term, it being understood and agreed that Landlord shall have no additional obligation to perform any tenant improvements or renovate Suite 21 or any portion of Building 26 as a result of Tenant’s renewal of the Lease for Suite 21.

D.

The Renewal Term shall not be transferable by Tenant, except in conjunction with a permissible transfer in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Lease.

E.

If Tenant duly exercises the Renewal Term, Landlord and Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s request, execute and deliver an amendment to the Lease, prepared by Landlord and reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, memorializing such exercise of the Renewal Term and the Base Rent for Suite 21 for the Renewal Term.
